Pitbull Late Show Appearance Tonight Maybe Worth Watching

Read more

For all you Cubanos orgullosos, watch The Late Show With David Letterman tonight! Maybe… The special guest performer is the one-and-only Pitbull, who of course you know we have a love-hate relationship with. Yes, he’s a cuban artist. Yes, he’s been in a foto with our mascot doll XoXa (see above). Yes, his music sounds like it was made by execs trying to turn a buck, but, yeah, it’s catchy, rhythmic, danceable.  The video for the new single looks like a car commercial – throwing in a trendy dub step moment for good measure – but is actually for Men In Black 3 (like we really need another) coming out this Friday.

Our insiders (my mom) tell us Pitbull did deliver a great show at the taping last night – an awesome and energetic performance with stellar percussion (three bongos, etc) and a lot of dancing. May just be worth watching. Especially if you liked him before he was big, not since he went commercial…etc. Let us know your thoughts.
