FINALLY we have a Pitbull wax work figure in the Orlando
branch of Madame Tussauds!
After sitting patiently for a reported 300 measures for
getting the statue just right and donating his own tuxedo and sunglasses to
perfect the look we have a Pitbull clone!
Hopefully other branches of the Tussauds Group ( ahem
London) will follow suit.
We can only imagine that the only downside of having such a
statue is the organisation having the extra costs of hiring possible extra
security to protect the figure from Pitbull Girls. Added the care for keeping
the wax work away from naked flame as we heard the guy is a bit of a Fireball!
Pitbull is able to stop the traffic anywhere in the world
but last night as Piensas featuring his very own Mr 305 Inc’s Gente De Zona video
made its premiere on the Sony Digital Billboard it may have been Times Square, New York at 7pm that came to a standstill.
But the treats didn’t stop there. Fans were encouraged to
get down to Times Square to watch the video go out but perhaps not to ‘piensas’ too long about it otherwise they would miss out
the free merchandise handed out by Mr 305 Inc.
Piensas, the first single released from Pitbull’s upcoming
Spanish album Dale is set it in 1959 Havana and sees Pitbull, Gente De Zona and
The Most Bad Ones in a club ringing in the New Year.
Directed by a personal favourite for Pitbull music videos, David
Rousseau, the video is sleek, classy and captures the sexy essence and spirit
of partying in Habana in that era.
While Pitbull and Gente De Zona are sing away to us in what
seems like a courtyard within the club, The Most Bad Ones don their adaptation
of hot Cuban dancers outfits with headpieces, feathers and cheek on show before
a quick change to hit a private table and bring in the New Year in style with Pitbull’s
Voli Black.
Strategic product placement of Voli Black sees the distinctive
vodka flowing prominently throughout the video and demonstrating just how to enjoy
the drink and “Stay Sexy” as the liquor, whether it be at the table, bar or
waving the exquisite bottle in the air.
It looked like something serious may have been about to go
down near the end but then again what was it that Pitbull said with a friendly
but firm hand on the shoulder to the gentleman on the way out of the club. A
friendly warning or “You better get back in there the Voli is great, dale!”
The Official Life’s A Beach video for Heymous Molly is sure to get you feeling jolly! We all know Pitbull has been listening to the song and no doubt must be watching the official video.
Directed by Jonathan Augustavo with numerous awards and nominations under his belt, the official Life’s A Beach video features some very impressive dance moves by Yusuke Nakai starting in what seems as a tribal fur-cuffed robe staring longingly at a postcard of a beach at sunset captioned ‘Life’s A Beach’ as he then looks around his hilly, mountain-like surroundings. Replacing the dull views with images of the beach, he impulsively decides to break out in a dance as the waves in his imagination make a break for the shore.
Realising he needs only to dance his way across the bridge to get to this promised land in LA, Yusuke Nakai proceeds. Dancing through the streets passing on the infectious popping dance moves and injecting vitality and zest to those he interacts with. Managing to even get a guy begging on the street looking on the bright side and up dancing, who eventually hands over what we can assume was a package with a wad of cash which Yusuke uses to get new stylish gear to fit in. Before finally finding the beach.
Half expecting the final shot to be zoomed out to reveal that we were all watching the video on a tablet/ipad with Heymous Molly from his point of view with one hand holding the tablet, another with a drink in his hand, a back drop of the beach and with toes in the sand. Alternatively the video adds more fun and mystery to 'who is Heymous Molly'
Initially a reminiscent touch of Kiesza's Hideaway but with more of an original, uplifting story and fun filled choreography. Cheerful, upbeat, cool and a joy to watch. A happy ending for someone searching for that carefree place and passing on that feeling to others on the way, including the viewers. Life's a beach, up on your feet and put those dance skills on show, everybody throw your hands up higher heeyyyy yeaaaa!
Today fans around the world
woke up to Pitbull having made yet more history last night. History and
a welcomed disruption in the industry as Mr Worldwide’s goals go.
Pitbull kicked off the launch of his new music channel on
SiriusXM in true Pitbull style, with one big party full of performances by Mr
Worldwide as he wowed the audience as they waved the brand-appropriately
coloured blue glow sticks in delight.
Pitbull’s channel Globalization launched at the same time as
this big party held at the Apollo Theater in New York. Hits as Rhythmic as
Pitbull’s hips intend to take over as Mr Worldwide whisks us around the world
riding the airwaves of SiriusXM Channel
4, with the help of some of the biggest DJ’s from around the world. As Pitbull says “But DJ’s? I luurve dat (I’m
Off That- Global Warming) ” Always appreciating the DJ community, their support
and influence. Never too far away, earlier long term friend and legendary DJ
Laz was seen outside the venue on social media with the Latin Prince (Mr DJ City New York) When asked on Twitter how it felt to have a shout out from Pitbull at the launch "@Serinapitbullfu it felt incredible all the hardwork has paid off #Globalization" was the response from the Latin Prince who will be on air Sat/Sun 12pm/EST/9am/WST.
Globalization has a great line up of DJ's including DJ Santarosa on air Monday to Friday on the noon mix.
Live performances and exclusive mix shows as well as
Pitbull’s catalog of global hits are in the mix for this brand new channel so
be sure to sign up. Commercial free means you can listen to music straight
through without interruptions- one thing to say to that – Dale!
The Billboard Music Awards 2015 on ABC took place last night, one of the of the
biggest nights in music bursting at the seams full of talented artists.
Party King Pitbull along with the sexiest, classiest dancers
around, The Most Bad Ones gave a spectacular performance at the BBMA's Awards
with Chris Brown showing the rest of us just how having 'Fun' should be done as they ‘hook us up with
a brand new high’ dazzling the audience and raising the energy at the venue.
Opening with Chris Brown in all red amongst the Most Bad
Ones dressed in classy, angular cut white semi-gowns on white sofas. The song soon
takes us to Mr Worldwide on the roof top level of the classy Miami themed stage crib (you know
mami, you know how it is… let’s go the crib!)
Pitbull in white with a feint blue blazer with a touch of
grey looking stylish and sexy as ever as he and Chris Brown bust some salsa
moves on stage together in sync
A great show! Always a pleasure and honour to be a part of
the Official BBMA's street team/ BBMAS Squad. Thank you to Dick Clark
Productions for having me.

Here’s a little TBT from last year when I caught up with
Heymous Molly for his first interview in 2014 when he first broke into the
music scene.
eMerge Americas convention in Miami took place between the 1
– 5th May packed with interactive workshops sessions, notable keynote speakers
and summits. The concept behind the conference lies the intention to serve as a
place to unite industries and individuals within to connect with their cutting-edge
ideas. With key players from various industries such as Health, Finance, Media,
Entertainment and Gaming amongst others.
Pitbull was a keynote speaker at the event. Engaging and
intriguing as always while stirring up questions, taking the mind down mental
avenues we didn’t even know existed and illuminating light bulb moments.
A visionary, Armando proves to make goals materialise in
music and business whether it be music or non-music related. As fans we are
aware of Pitbull’s goals, his admiration of innovation and creativity and
making something out of nothing,
the super entrepreneur and all round business man that also
branches outside of music talks about the biggest mistakes the music industry
has made. Going onto talking about how the music industry makes more money for
other businesses but itself, what doesn’t worry him about the music business
that worries others in the industry and more. Telling us more about his new
channel on Sirius, Globalization. Getting people to realise what an asset
technology is to music and work with it rather than fighting it.
eMerge America’s Mission statement is “To serve as the
catalyst for establishing Miami as the technology hub for the Americas in order
to propel innovation and investment in South Florida and Latin America” It has
also been said that the idea behind eMerge Americas is to be “a global idea
exchange focusing on how technology and innovation are disrupting industries” –Emphasis
also on the word ‘disruption’ Cue
Pitbull to share his wisdom with the innovators and entrepreneurs and be well on his way according to his plans
of causing ‘history’ and ‘disruption’ starting with his home town.
As Mr 305-Worldwide rang in the Nasdaq closing bell on
Monday 4th with others, explore more about eMerge and Pitbull’s views at the
conference and CNBC’s reports on the links below. An absolute must.
