Yahoo! Telemundo today announced its Top 10 Searches for the month ending April 30 (yahootelemundo.com/lomasbuscado), which include the Top 10 overall searches, image searches and health searches for the month, as established by the millions of Yahoo! Telemundo users.
Top Trends in Search for April include:
Top 10 Overall Searches
1) Scarlett Johansson
2) Megan Fox
3) Comedians
4) 2008 Latin Billboard Awards
5) Valeria Mazza
6) Cuba
7) Juanes
Foreign baby names
9) Jackie Guerrido y Don Omar
10) EnvironmentBig screen bombshells topped the list of the most searched for on Yahoo! Telemundo with Scarlett Johansson and Megan Fox earning the top two spots in April. Johansson who recently starred in The Other Boleyn Girl, famous for her curvaceous figure and sultry voice, was the No. 1 search. Coming in at second place was Megan Fox of Transformers fame, who was just voted as the number one, sexiest woman in the world by readers of FHM magazine. Comedians came in third place on this April Fool’s month and the 2008 Latin Billboard Awards also garnered a hot spot on the list with Yahoo! Telemundo’s official web page dedicated to the event. The site offered music fans behind-the-scenes videos of rehearsals and interviews, plus a recap of the entire show, featuring the best/worst of the red carpet and show feedback from performers, guests and fans.
Argentine supermodel, Valeria Mazza and her husband, businessman Alejandro Gravier, welcomed their fourth child (and first daughter) Taina, on April 22 in Buenos Aires, earning her the number five slot. Many searched for news on Cuba’s lift of the decades-long ban on consumer electronics such as cell phones, DVD players and microwave ovens, etc. After years of being denied these modern day luxuries, Cuban citizens are now allowed to purchase these consumer goods — despite extremely high prices.
Latin rock star Juanes, with his often sold out concert tour, continues as one of the most searched for personalities on Yahoo! Telemundo. Searches for foreign baby names were popular this month as many expectant parents look for unique names to moniker their little ones. There was also much buzz about Jackie Guerrido and Don Omar’s April wedding — the Reggaeton star and TV weather forecaster reportedly tied the knot in their native Puerto Rico with over 300 family and friends. Rounding off the top ten is a topic that should interest people the world over — the environment and climate change have become current and definitive topics and many are searching the web for more in depth and up to the minute news on how we can make a significant change to save our planet.
Top 10 Image Searches
1) Screensavers
2) Jessica Alba
3) Tatoos
4) Carmen Electra
5) Adriana Lima
6) Adamari Lopez
7) Naruto
9) Lindsay Lohan
10) Maria SharapovaScreensavers nabbed the number one slot for the most searched image category in April; but overall, famous beauties continue to rule this category with celebrities such as mom-to-be, Jessica Alba, Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima, tennis star Maria Sharapova, as well as R&B singer Rihanna. Lindsay Lohan is back as a most searched term this month as the long-troubled actress continues to get her life back on track. Images of newly engaged Carmen Electra were also quite popular perhaps due to her surprising black diamond engagement ring from musician Rob Patterson. Hanging on strong to the list are images of the popular Japanese anime character Naruto due to its enormous popularity with kids around the world.
Top 10 Health Searches
1) Anemia
2) Erectile dysfunction
3) Medicinal plants
4) Autism
5) Contraceptives
6) Quit smoking
7) Diabetes
9) Anorexia
10) Home remediesAnemia tops the list of the most searched term in the Health category and other diseases such as diabetes, which touches many in the U.S. Hispanic community, and anorexia did not fall far behind. Also, many mothers, including celebrities, continue to be more outspoken on autism issues, including the supposed risks that certain vaccinations may pose on babies — possibly causing a spike in these searches. Sexual related issues including erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation also made the list, while quitting smoking was also a top query. Finally, there was curiosity for more natural approaches like using medicinal plants and home remedies.
Every month the Yahoo! Telemundo Top 10 Searches showcases the diverse interests and concerns of U.S. Hispanics around the net, from gorgeous celebrity sightings and salacious political news to funny jokes and the latest consumer obsessions. The monthly list includes a recap of the Top 10 Overall Searches, Top 10 Image Searches and Top 10 Searches in a revolving category, which changes monthly. To come up with the Yahoo! Top Searches list, Yahoo! scans anonymous query logs from Yahoo! Search across a variety of categories to see what themes and trends bubble up to the surface. Individual searches are never used to develop these lists. For more information on Yahoo! Telemundo’s Top 10 Searches, visit www.yahootelemundo.com/lomasbuscado . “*
