Quiero Mis Quinces: Karina Goes Hollywood

By Michael Lopez

Just because you live in Miami, doesn’t’ mean you can’t enjoy the glitz and glam of Hollywood. Just ask Karina, who happens to be a major fan of classic movie icons like Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe. When it came time to plan her Quinceanera, guess what theme she was going for?

With a little help from her parents and older sisters, Karina’s set on creating a birthday celebration full of top hats, red carpets, and paparazzi cameras. But as we know with all “Quiero Mis Quinces” episodes, it’s easier said than done. Before she becomes the star attraction, Karina’s going to have to put in A LOT of “pre-production” work.

Luckily she comes from a tight-knit Cuban family, so everyone (including abuelita) is getting a task to help carry out Karina's dream quinces. Mom’s helping pick the ballroom, her BFFs are helping pick the movie posters, and older sis is getting the keys to her rich boss’s classic car.

Will it all come together? There are a few glitches (which we won’t spoil here), but the big day arrives and the birthday girl’s in high spirits. Karina’s got a gorgeous white dress, her Dad lifted the boyfriend ban, and she even hit her perfect “Quinces” weight.

But none of that compares to the excitement of the party itself. Stepping out of a gorgeous classic car, having her court dressed in tuxes and glamorous dresses, and choreographing a perfect Hollywood dance routine drove the crowd wild! It’s obvious that Karina was born to be a star and we expect to see big things from her in the years ahead (are you listening Robert Rodriguez?).
