Blogamole › David Bisbal

Sure he's won Grammys and sold millions of albums, but Alejandro Sanz' latest honor may be his most prestigious yet. This week, the legendary Latin pop star received a gold medal in Fine Arts from Spain’s King Juan Carlos.

The honor was for Alejandro's musical contributions throughout the past three decades. A proud Spanish citizen himself, Sanz seemed touched by the honor, happily shaking the hands of Juan Carlos and his wife Queen Sofia.

Alejandro took a break from filming La Voz Mexico to attend the event and brought his good buddy David Bisbal along with him. The timing of the honor actually seems quite fitting too. This year marks the 20th anniversary of Sanz' smash debut album, Viviendo Deprisa.

The awards ceremony took place at El Pardo Palace in Madrid and, as expected, there were tons of photographers on hand to capture the moment. We, for one, are glad the royals recognized Sanz' music. Hopefully they'll extend the Fine Arts medal to a few more hometown heroes in the years to come.

Who's your favorite Spanish musician? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.

Want to know what David Bisbal was up to while he was in LA for Rock N Gol?

You're in luck! Bisbal was nice enough to keep a video diary de su gira por Los Angeles. As you can see, he was a busy little bee. Watch him record some last minute tips before the big game, do an interview on the sidelines with Carlos Santos and even attempt a three point goal!

You're not hallucinating — that is indeed David Bisbal in Miley Cyrus' mashup video for “When I Look At You,” featured in the Disney starlet's new movie, 'The Last Song.'

In this version made for the Spanish market, David's beach performance is artfully combined with footage from the music video for the song's original version.

'The Last Song' was released in theaters on March 31st. The film is based on Nicholas Sparks' best-selling novel of the same title. In the cinematic version, Miley Cyrus plays opposite her real-life boyfriend Liam Hemsworth, joined by Kelly Preston, Greg Kinnear and Bobby Coleman.

Tr3s Comunidad, what do you think about this mashup for 'When I Look At You'? Are you going to go see 'The Last Song'? Hit us up in the comments or @MTV3!

Rock N Gol may be over, but the excitement is just beginning!  The shoot last week brought out los mejores artistas y estrellas del fútbol, including Pitbull, Akon, Tony Meola, Cobi Jones, Jenni Rivera, Poncho Herrera, Christian Chavez y más!  You may have seen our live-Twitter coverage desde el evento, pero no te preocupes -- todavia tenemos mucho más para mostrarles!  All leading up to the show premiere on June 3rd, solo por MTV Tr3s! Keep it locked to Tr3s and Blogamole, because we promise we've got a lot of Rock N Gol goodies to share in the weeks to come!

So what was the game like, you may ask yourselves?  The fun began when the celebs started arriving Tuesday night at the hotel and we spotted David Bisbal and Poncho Herrera coming into the lobby after a workout session and exchanging tips para el gran juego the next day.  Who were they pumped to see on the field?  None other than Jenni Rivera.  Yeah, we were pretty pumped about that too!

Wednesday morning we arrived to an overcast field at the Home Depot Center in Carson, CA, pero cuando las estrellas started rolling in, we were overjoyed to see the sun peek through the clouds.  Que día tan perfecto para un partido de fútbol!  After a quick meet-and-greet session (you better believe we got some exclusive entrevistas to share with you later!) the game was underway!

Can we just tell you how amazing it is to see the likes of Brandi Chastain and Marcelo Balboa dribbling a soccer ball to Michelle Rodriguez and Diego Torres?  And, we won't even mention what an incredible futbolista Akon is... oh, all right, yeah we will!  If that whole Konvict Records game ever gets old, we know he'll have an alternate career waiting for him!  No wonder he was chosen to pen the official 2010 World Cup theme song!  Which, by the way, Akon tells us will be extra special, though no mention yet on who will be behind the mic...

Game highlights?  So You Think You Can Dance's Legacy doing major backflips and breakdancing on the field... only to be shown up by Akon matching his moves not a minute later!  Christian Chavez and Poncho Herrera's reunion on the field -- even though they were on separate teams, you could totally feel the love entre los dos ex-miembros de RBD!  Throughout the game Carlos Mencia had some hilarious little quips about los jugadores, and you can be sure he wasn't holding back on his opinion about some of the pop stars' talent with the ball.  He was particularly unimpressed with Jenni Rivera, pero aún peor fue Christian Chavez.  Let's just say he won't be quitting his job as a pop singer anytime soon!  There were a few soccer ball mishaps, including one particular ball that went haywire during an attempt at a 3-point gol, courtesy of a mean kick by Tony Meola.  You'll have to see what happened when the show airs on June 3rd, but we can tell you the action turned quite a few heads...  And of course the big show highlight (besides the winning goal kicks!) was the rockin' performance by Pitbull, who brought down the house with hits old and new, including the first single off his upcoming album, "Alright."

Personal highlights of the game?  Watching Poncho Herrera make a beeline to hug ex-bandmate Christian Chavez on the sidelines in between games.  And having David Bisbal enthralled by my nose ring -- yep, I can say David Bisbal touched my face.  Repeatedly.  Celosas?

Also, Michelle Rodriguez might just be the funniest, most kick-ass chica on the planet -- and she's got a mean soccer steeze, despite a recent injury.  Favorite MRod quote of the day: "Woah, I think someone just got kicked in the nuts!"  Oh, and I must say, I did appreciate the eye candy of watching hombres lindos como Jesse Williams, Walter Perez, Poncho Herrera, Christian Chavez and even Marcelo Balboa working up a sweat... And with such lady players as Debi Nova, Brandi Chastain, Michelle Rodriguez and super sexy referee, Fox Sports correspondent Temryss Lane, we know los hombres had a fun time watching too!

We'll be rolling out behind-the-scenes video, photos, entrevistas y más leading up to the big premiere on June 3rd at 9pm EST, so make sure you keep it locked to Blogamole and MTVTr3s.com!  Check out more pics from the event here!
