As has been proven over and over again by Sofia Vergara, who dazzled at the 2010 MTV VMAs, few things are as sexy as a confident Colombian woman. Demonstrating this point yet again and bringing a sexy new pop, rap, dance sabor to the music world comes la Colombiana Yahaira and her first studio album named, you guessed it, Sexy.

Yahaira comes well-equipped for her debut, teaming up with NY-based rapper Lil Mama para su nuevo sencillo bilingüe, "Sexiest." The best part of this news? Tr3s is giving you this song de gratis! Since Yahaira is our new Free Latin Music artist, all you dance music lovers can download her latest track for free!

Not only was Yahaira raised within a musical family and writing poetry at a very young age, the singer/songwriter gave her first stage performance a la tierna edad de 6 añitos, before a crowd of 3,000 people. Now that's an impressive little girl! By the age of 9, she was already the lead voice in her church choir, and her schoolmates would dub her "La Cantante" or "La Poeta." Después de sufrir una tragedia familiar, where her father was shot and almost killed, Yahaira learned a lesson of strength and perseverance that she would carry with her, motivating her to move to Bogotá, and then finally come to the United States in pursuit of her dream.

Mucho ha pasado desde esos años inocentes, and Yahaira is all grown up and ready to flaunt her sexiness! So go ahead and check out her naughty bilingual new single "Sexiest" on our Free Latin Music page and hear it for yourselves.

Let us know what you think of Yahaira's music in the comments or sound off @MTV3!

You know if a program is scheduled to run simultaneously on ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, and tons of high-profile cable channels it’s got to be pretty important. “Stand Up To Cancer” is more than a television special, it’s an event, designed to inspire, educate, and tackle one of the deadliest diseases in our world today. And now it looks like several Latino celebs are joining the fight.

Sofia Vergara, Aubrey Plaza, Naya Rivera and more are all scheduled to partake in the event which hopes to raise money for research, support, and cutting-edge technologies geared towards fighting the deadly disease. Now in its third year, the show features real celebs manning the phones and accepting donations.

And who exactly could be taking your calls? How about George Clooney or Will Smith? Past high-profile Latinas on phone duty have included both Salma Hayek Pinault and America Ferrera. Will they be on the line this year? We'll have to wait and see...

But outside the glam and glitz of the stars, the heart of the foundation is to give people a forum to stay educated, share their stories, and learn about what’s being done to tackle the "Big C".

According to SUTC stats, 1500 Americans die from cancer every day. And one out of two men and one out of three women will be diagnosed at one point in their lifetime. Pretty heavy numbers, but there’s plenty of good news to go along with that too.

100% of all of the funds received from the special will go towards cancer research. Specifically, to a “Dream Team” (as they put it) of researchers from top institutions who are undertaking groundbreaking disease-combative projects at this very moment. Not only that, SUTC is a full partner with the American Association for Cancer Research.

Even a slight contribution can make a massive difference, if enough people donate (the 2008 special raised over $100M). And who knows, you could wind up making your pledge to Vanessa Hudgens or Zac Efron. So start cracking open those piggy banks because the SUTC special starts at 8pm on September 10!

The 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards were hosted by "SNL" alum and Late Night star Jimmy Fallon, and the first-time host definitely delivered! Kicking off the show with the cast of "Glee," Betty White, Tina Fey and more, Fallon's song and dance routine was a fun homage to the Emmy-nominated halls of McKinley High!

Fallon continued to punch up the Emmys telecast with digital and musical touches similar to those he often uses on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon." The comedian strapped on an acoustic guitar to introduce sizzle reels recapping the year in television and a few lucky Emmy fans on Twitter got some love when Fallon wove their comments into his intro for presenters.

Fallon also kept the audience in hysterics with a tribute to the TV dramas we lost over the past year. Manning a pink piano and sporting rose-colored glasses, à la Elton John, Fallon revamped the pop icon's "Candle in the Wind" to honor the canceled "24." Then, busting out his admirable quick-change skills, the comic donned a cardigan, switched up Boyz II Men's "It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday" and poured out a 40 to commemorate "Law & Order." Jimmy then sported a black emo getup and spiked hair like Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong for a version of "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)" to honor "Lost."

Although low on scandalous, unscripted live-television moments, the telecast delivered spoofs on some of television's biggest hits. In one clip, the cast of "Modern Family" endures somewhat ridiculous suggestions on how to improve the show. Ideas included teaming up with animated Stewie from "Family Guy," shooting the show in 3-D and adding the dreamy George Clooney, who also received the night's Bob Hope Humanitarian Award.

While Sofia Vergara looked ultra sexy in 3-D, she unfortunately lost in the Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy category, but "Modern Family" did win 5 Emmys overall including Outstanding Comedy Series.

Which begs us to ask: Will Vergara keep her pre-Emmy promise and streak naked across L.A.'s Sunset Blvd?  Back in July, Modern Family took out an ad in Variety magazine claiming, “If Modern Family wins the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy, Sofia Vergaga will run naked down Sunset Blvd.” Of course, the ad ran with a brief clause that claimed Vergara could be replaced by any cast member at any time. But, Sofia seemed game, claiming, “Listen, I’m not afraid of anything. I’m Colombian.”

After the win, however, Vergara jokingly told reporters that she'd already run nude.

“I did the run and I came back. Yes, I mean, I’m fast. I run fast. They zipped me and they sent me to do press."

We doubt that. But not to worry, Ed O'Neil, Sofia's on-screen hubby is more than willing to take her place! Something tells us, Vergara's sprint will be easier on the eyes!

Overall, the 2010 Emmy winners were fairly diverse last night. In fact, some of the 2010 Emmy winners were brand new, as the usual Emmy winners had somewhat of a hard time. Since new shows like Glee and Modern Family were paired against each other, there were bound to be a few winners most weren't familiar with like "Breaking Bad." Established shows like "30 Rock" and "Lost" had no luck, while "Mad Men" was largely shut out until the inevitable Best Drama victory. Overall, the 2010 Emmy winners were a mix of old and new - and some were even surprising picks.

For a full list of winners and losers, head on over to Emmys.com.

The 62nd Annual Primetime Emmys took place last night (August 29th) at Los Angeles' Kodak Theater. Amidst the scorching L.A. heat, Hollywood's glitterati managed to look sleek and chic in their red carpet couture. Here's a round-up of some of our faves!

Sofia Vergara shined in her strapless champagne colored Carolina Herrera gown adorned with swarovski crystals.

Eva Longoria Parker and Lauren Velez donned classic black frocks. While Lauren opted for simple satin, Eva's Robert Rodriguez was simple in its complexity with a beautifully ornate skirt to match its otherwise plain bodice.

Kim Kardashian looked like the epitome of a Grecian goddess in white.

Lea Michele was stunning in her navy Oscar De La Renta flamenco style gown.

Keri Russell added a necessary pop of color in an understated hot pink number.

And now on to the men! Mario Lopez played the role of the dapper gentleman in a beautiful tux.

"Lost" veteran Jorge Garcia came suited and booted, and brought his wife who rocked a purple cocktail dress.

And "Modern Family" star Rico Rodriguez rounds out our list as the cutest red carpet newcomer!

On the afternoon of August 23, 35-year-old businessman Nick Loeb (Sofia Vergara’s boyfriend) perdió el control de su vehículo while driving in Bel Air and went right off a cliff on Beverly Glen Blvd. He was taken to the Intensive Care Unit at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, sufriendo heridas serias en su pierna y pecho.

The Emmy-nominated 38-year-old actress must have been jolted at such scary news about the man
she loves. Pero desde que tuvo noticias, she took to Twitter to share some relief with her followers,
saying, “Thnks everybody, Nick is doing very good. Pelvix fracture, lots of pain but he is going to be ok. Gracias!!!"

Nick remains hospitalized with Sofia at his side, y le deseamos que se recupere pronto

Team Blogamole sends positive thoughts to the couple for a speedy recovery. Hopefully he can accompany Vergara to the Emmys on Sunday, Aug. 29; she is in the running for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy for her role on "Modern Family."

Team Blogamole has been excitedly following the "The Smurfs" shoot in NYC. A live action flick based on our classic Saturday morning memories made us excited, curious, and a little nervous for Hollywood not to screw it up. (Anyone remember the fail whale "Scooby Doo" movie?)

Now it’s time to take a sneak peek at what the new "Smurfs" is shaping up to be! Get your first look at Papa, Grouchy, and Clumsy Smurf (what — no Brainy or Smurfette?):

There’s really not a lot of insight into the plot, characters, or time line — but the CGI does look pretty good! We can't wait to see Sofia Vergara do her thing!

This little taste of what's to come is enough to get Team Blogamole very excited about next summer's release. "The Smurfs" may very well turn out to be the undercover blockbuster of 2011. We can't wait to get Smurf'd in 3D!!

We knew that "Modern Family" star Sofia Vergara had been dating the married-yet-seperated former Florida state politico and trust-fund baby, Nick Loeb, but now The Enquirer is reporting that Loeb has popped the question!

La pareja's whirlwind courtship began back in February when they met at the Golden Globes. Since then, Loeb has moved to Los Angeles, presumably to be closer to Vergara, and to start a career in television production. Sofia and Nick are even talking babies!

When asked about her relationship, Vergara told Cellestrellas.com:

"Estoy enamoradísima."

Think these two will make it to the altar? Weigh in below, or @MTV3.
