Celebrity and popularity usually translated into awards Thursday at Univision’s Premio Lo Nuestro de la Musica Latina.

“It was celebrity ecstasy at Univision’s Premio Lo Nuestro de la Musica Latina on Thursday. The show kicked off with two of Latin and pop music’s biggest stars, Colombian rockers Juanes and Shakira, who took the stage less than five minutes after working the red carpet outside Miami’s AmericanAirlines Arena.

From there it was one gleaming moment after another. Pop, reggaeton, regional Mexican — this was all about star power, not genre.

Premio lo nuestro means ”our prize” and despite being at the biggest venue in town, the nearly sold out Arena still had a homey family feel, a relaxed sense. Kids scampered everywhere. People screamed and waved with oh-my-god-they’re-so-CLOSE fervor as their favorite artists strolled down the floor to their seats, and counted down with the announcer after each commercial break.”
