[reposted since the show airs tonight!]

This blog has been very woman-centric lately, and it's going to be like that for a while. But I know I've got some male readers out there so I want to make sure I take care of you guys, too.

So I just wanted you all to mark your calendars - Monday, June 5th - because that is the night the ALMA Awards will be televised. What are the ALMA awards?

The National Council of La Raza (NCLR), largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the U.S., announces the return of the NCLR ALMA Awards in a prime-time spot on ABC Monday, June 5 (9:30-11:00 p.m. EST)! The NCLR ALMA Awards honors outstanding Latino artistic achievement in television, film, and music and the enhancement of the Latino image in the entertainment industry.

"But I'm not Latino, Christine, why should I care?"

Well, my friends, you should care because Eva Longoria is hosting the show! Well, you should really care because it's important to celebrate the impact that Latinos have made in entertainment, but you should watch because Eva is the host - and she has several dress changes.

If Eva isn't enough to entice you, the opening act has Eva dancing in a almost-not-there dress with some of the hottest Latina women in entertainment - Carmen Electra, Rosalyn Sanchez (Rush Hour 2), Constance Marie (The George Lopez Show), and Paulina Rubio (singer). I saw clips of their dance on some of the entertainment shows and let me tell you, it was HOT!

Rosalyn, Carmen, Eva, Paulina, Constance

Legs! Legs! Legs! I'm going to start doing lunges while carrying Ben so I can get some hot legs like that.

So watch it. Support Latinos. And after you watch Eva & Co shake their booties and you think to yourself, "Damn, that was hot! I'm glad I caught that!", remember where you heard it first, and say to yourself, "Yano is so good to me. She rocks!"
