Juanes Says Hola Hillary
Last
week in Washington DC Juanes, "A Dios Le Pido" singer met with
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. He made a trip to the
politico town to rustle up some Clinton support for his second annual upcoming
concert, "Paz Sin Fronteras"(Peace Without Borders) which will
take place September 21st.
The
concert is to promote world peace, focusing on the countries of Latin
America. Last year's concert was held on the border between Colombia and
Venezuela.
In
2008, Juanes first concert series received support from hundreds of
thousands of fans over the world. Participants in the event
included Alejandro Sanz, Carlos Vives, and Ricardo
Montaner. And there's special meaning to September
21st. The 21st is also --the U.N. International Day of Peace.
Juanes
is one of the Colombia's best-selling musicians, having sold over ten
million albums and won seventeen Latin Grammys. Many call
him the "Latin Bono". Juanes rocks in Espanol (and also
English...and all over the world).
