HOLA Member Bochinche

Bochinche refers to "gossip." In this sense, we use it to mention HOLA members who are getting acting and performance gigs. The names of HOLA members are in boldface.

Modesto Lacén, shown at left, was listed as one of the top 10 "Boricuas famosos que viven en Estados Unidos" (Famous Puerto Ricans who live in the United States), according to the Puerto Rican newspaper Primera Hora. To find out who made the list (which also includes an Oscar winner, a Grammy and Latin Grammy winner), click here.

Ten Dominican actresses were highlighted in the article "Promesas del cine dominicano" (The Future of Dominican Film) from the Dominican Republic magazine Mujer Única. They are Mariluz Acosta, Maité Bonilla, Dalia Davi, Laura Gómez, Sarah Jorge, Mino Lara, Robmariel Olea, Yanillys Pérez, Virginia Sánchez and Paola "Pie" Soto. For more information on Mujer Única, click here. (Sánchez, Jorge and Olea made the cover, shown at right.)

Gladys K. Nilsen e-mailed us to let us know that she booked a Spanish-language commercial for Assurance Wireless.

Rodney Roldán reports work on "Gossip Girl" (WB) and "The Good Wife" (CBS).
