By ALEX ALVAREZ

Oye, fellow CHICA$! Mamis, lemme ask u a kuestion. R u r3aDy 2 B on TV? Duh, rite? Well, locas, have I got the oportunidad 4 u! Peep this kasting kall looking for “fiery, passionate, spanish speaking bi-lingual goddesses who are those beautiful, exciting, mami chulas NY is notorious for (sic)” to take part in a show called “Mi Vida Loca.” DALE!

Gurl, I luv it when m3diA outlets and kompanies speak my lengua. Becuz, truth B told, I’m tired of being talked down 2, patronized, stereotyped, misunderstood and misrepresented by the narrow, myopic, inadequate, and often farcical portrayals of Latin women in both Spanish and English-language media, so it’s nice to have the opportunity to show audiences the person beyond the sexed-up, “impassioned” Latina stereotype and the often detrimental fetishization of Latinas.
