“Gabrielle Larrivas MySpace page looks pretty standard when compared to those of other pop culture-driven kids her age.

Self-descriptors like “I hate drama” and “OMG I love, love, love the movie Dreamgirls” are scattered amid photos of Pharrell, Hilary Duff and the 16-year-old Tucson High Magnet School sophomore and her friends.

But dig a little deeper and you will find a side to Larrivas that is unique to the American Southwest and totally Tucson: pictures of her performing with Mariachi Los Changuitos Feos, her declaration of love for mariachi music and the canción “Cuando el Destino” playing quietly on the Web sites built-in jukebox.”
