Juanes Honored By St. Jude's Hospital - Is Sainthood Next?

De verdad, is there a noble cause in the world that Juanes doesn't support?  And is there any other star that is as completely genuine and believable doing so?  So when we heard that Juanes is being honored by yet another philanthropic organization, it just brought a huge smile to our faces!  This time, Juanes is being honored by St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital -- you know the one with the commercials that always make you cry and long for a way to save all the sick children in the universe?  The hospital, which is one of the primary pediatric cancer research facilities, will be honoring el cantante at their 8th annual sponsored Angels & Stars Gala on May 15th.

Also appearing at the event are hosts Lili Estefan and Miami radio personality Javier Romero, Daisy Fuentes, and performers Luis Enrique and Noel Schajris del grupo Sin Bandera.

El cantante Colombiano, who's raked up over a dozen Latin Grammys in addition to being recognized throughout the world for his humanitarian efforts, had this to say about being honored at the event:

"Como padre de familia que soy, no puedo evitar sentirme profundamente conmovido por los niños que en este momento son atendidos en St. Jude. La misión de este hospital es realmente única, y la esperanza que brinda a cientos de familias es impresionante. Siempre he admirado la labor que cumple el hospital St. Jude de ayudar a niños enfermos no sólo en los Estados Unidos, sino también en todas partes del mundo."

Congratulations Juanes! We continue to admire you for your talent and your heart! And it doesn't hurt that you're amazingly hot as well... Que creen ustedes de Juanes? Are you as in love with him as we are? Tell us in the comments!
