The Other Reggaeton Cable Ad: Awesomer

Remember that IO Digital Cable/ Optimum Online reggaeton ad on the beach that is the most ubiquitous thing on television in the tristate area? Ha, you don't just remember it, you secretly love it! Or perhaps it makes you want to murder people. Either way, when I saw this old Spanish remix of the ad running on Telemundo last weekend, I knew I had to find it and bring it to you, the viewer. This is not just the same as the ad on the beach, but with Spanish lyrics; this is a totally different ad, done in a Hype Williams-style shiny black and white palette, with dancing girls, an even more banging beat, and that reggaeton guy dressed up like Busta Rhymes, riding in a tiny car! It's truly a must-see. If you don't see much Spanish TV, you'll want to bookmark this one to watch over and over and over and over. Full video after the jump. More »

Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie Breaking Up? ¡No Es Posible!

This is so surely wrong—particularly as wire photos just showed the couple plus kids getting off a plane in southern France—but some Spanish-language MSN weirdness we've never heard of is claiming Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are separating. Our rudimentary high school Spanish, plus Babelfish, gives us this:

Actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, miserable from constant fighting after more than two years and a half years of being in love, have decided to spend some time apart and consider their future, the local press revealed today.
There's plenty more, but, man, even that hurt our heads. We're not gonna bother with the rest of it until we get some good American story about it. In American.
