For the Crossover Artist Of The Year, international superstars like Christina Aguilera, Rihanna, Bruno Mars and Robin Thicke will battle it out for the accolade. Social media is an integral part of a musical act and Latin Billboard Awards will honor an artist for their constant contact with their fans.Enrique Iglesias, Pitbull, Prince Royce and Shakira will duke it out in the Social Media, Artist Of The Year category. Another major category is the "Hot Latin Song" Song Of The Year, which comes off the weekly charts, those nominated are: "Vivir Mi Vida" (Marc Anthony), "Loco" (Enrique Iglesiasfeaturing Romeo Santos), "Darte Un Beso" (Prince Royce) and "Propuesta Indecente" (Romeo Santos).

- Juanes was one of the opening acts. Remember when he used to have long locks? We prefer this shorter hair-do. What do you think?

- Telemundo, is it necessary to name EVERYONE that is going to be on the show? Save some surprises! Tease us as the show goes on.

- Raul Gonzalez says that he is the host of "the most prestigious music award show." Did he forget he used to say the same when he was at Univision with Premios Lo Nuestro and the Latin Grammys?

- Can't decide which Catherine Siachoque dress is worst? The one she wore to present an award, or the one she wore on the red carpet.

- Raul Gonzalez sounds way too forced and not genuine. It's like we are watching an award show from the 90s. We need more excitement and energy.

- Andres Cantor is on-stage.. does he always talk like he is about to scream GOOOOOOOOOL?

- Jenni Rivera was nominated twice in this category, but it ultimately went to Marc Anthony, coincidently he is the only there out of the nominees.

- The salsa singer, Marc Anthony, dedicated his award to the great Cheo Feliciano

- We love how Enrique Iglesias always wears the most comfiest clothes to his performances, no matter what type of award it is.

- Andrea Bocelli has received an award for his career in music. A well deserve accolade for the legacy and history he has in entertainment.

- We are all excited for the Bocelli award, but Laura Flores is a little too excited, her teeth or going to come out of her face if she keeps on smiling like that.

- Cristian Castro needs some help! He cannot reach his musical notes and I am sure he is going to need some oxygen when he gets off stage. Someone help him please! We suggest for him to lip-sync next time.

- Enrique Iglesias won an award for "Hot Latin Song" for his collaboration with Romeo Santos. The Spanish singer went on a tangent and thanked everyone that collaborated on his album like Marco Antonio Solis, Kylie Minogue, J.Lo, Yandel......and he almost forgot to thank Santos. Good thing his mind cleared in the end.

- Why is the content editor of Billboard magazine standing with her hands on her hips like that? This isn't the Miss Universe pageant. Losen up girl!

- Franco De Vita receives the honor of going into the Billboard Hall of Fame. Congratulations! He dedicated the award to Venezuela.

- Telemundo half-as**d a tribute to Cheo Feliciano. YouTube aficionados probably cut a better video than what we just saw.

- Ricky Martin took the stage to sing "Vida," one of the 2014 World Cup songs.

- Franco de Vita singing a medley of his hits, reminds us that we're getting old or we were too young when we first heard his songs

- Chayanne, a week after his mother sadly passed away, takes the Latin Billboards stage premeiring his new song. At the end of his performance he received a standing ovation from the audience and almost broke down.

- Can someone wake me up when this award show is over? Can't with this!

- Technical audio glitches plague Luis Fonsi's performance and all we're thinking about is what Adamari Lopez is doing. Is she singing along? Dancing? Back stage?

- Reigning Miss Universe, Gabriela Isler, announced that Miss Latina Universo will start airing soon. Univision will have some competition with Nuestra Belleza Latina. The grand prize of the Telemundo version is an actual shot at the Miss Universe crown. Not too bad!

- Marc Anthony is "Artist Of The Year" and he closes out the night in an unispiring performance.

- Marc Anthony has an encore presentation singing "Vivir Mi Vida" just like a year ago.

- THE END
