It's official, Chino y Nacho have a major hit on their hands. The Venezuelan duo's Supremo record has already topped the Latin Album Charts and is about to get even more of a mainstream boost. C y N just confirmed that Akon will be appearing in the video for their latest single, "Bebe Bonita."

"Bebe" is actually a three-way duet between Chino, Nacho, and British rapper Jay Sean. Sean, of course, appears in the video too, but it's Akon who seems to be making the most headlines.

The Konvicted crooner seemed more than eager to help out his old buddies. As we all know, Akon's got a lot of history with Jay, having performed with him on the Supafest tour and on singles like "Down."

And the four of them seem to be getting along great, as evidenced by the pic Lateen Gossip put up on its site. We're already huge fans of the "Bebe" track and we’re hopeful the star-studded video can push Chino y Nacho to even greater musical heights.

An 8 year old Australian girl is rocking people's socks off with her first hardcore video cleverly titled, well, 'My First Hardcore Song.' Who thought you could sing about a dog and some fish and become an overnight internet sensation?

Juliet can be seen getting her "two-step on" by climbing monkey bars, twirling in a chair, and bouncing on a trampoline with her stuffed animals. This honestly sounds more melodious than a lot of the hardcore songs out these days. "Let's open up this pit!" Indeed.

Juliet is the daughter of an Australian producer Rob Sharpe, which explains her early break into the music industry. Get your game together, aspiring hardcore musicians. Don't you feel like a slacker?

Do you think Juliet is too young to star in a hardcore video, or is this the cutest hardcore rocker you've ever seen?

There is a very good chance that 2012 could be The Year of the Royce! Oh yea, Prince Royce's next albums are due in just a few short months and he's already prepping his first Spanish single, "Las Cosas Pequeñas."

Featuring all of the tropical sounds that Prince is famous for, "Las Cosas" has already hit the internet (albeit in a shortened preview form). The real single arrives next week and will be followed by a sentimental music video.

People en Español is reporting that Royce shot the vid in his hometown of New York and is very happy with the results. Portions were filmed at NY's iconic Central Park and, according to reports, screaming fans constantly surrounded the set.

Speaking about his hometown, Prince recently said,

"I was born in the Bronx and will always remember writing songs in Central Park. It's a place that brings back fond memories."

You can hear Royce's inspirations come alive again on January 16, when "Las Cosas Pequeñas" officially makes its radio and iTunes debut.

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes sure make a cute couple for the paparazzi photographers. And they clearly make a cute couple onscreen. The two celebrity lovebirds have now filmed their first short movie together, for the comedy website Funny Or Die.

Entitled Drunk History Christmas, the five-and-a-half minute clip features a whiskey-fueled retelling of the classic "Night Before Christmas" poem. In it, Ryan and Eva are seen cuddling happily in bed. Of course, it all gets interrupted when an inebriated Santa Claus slides down the chimney.

Played sheepishly by Jim Carrey, Old St. Nick makes plenty of colorful faces for the camera. There are also hilarious "doggie reindeer" scenes, slurred holiday speeches, and Christmas clichés skewered lovingly by the FOD staff.

Since its posting this week, Drunk History Christmas has already gotten 1.2 million views. Clearly the fans love seeing Gosling and Mendes hamming it up together. And you can see how well their chemistry works on the big screen when their movie The Place Beyond The Pines arrives in 2012.

Too bad New Year's Eve doesn't fall on a "Friday." If it did, it'd give the world one more reason to embrace Rebecca Black. Our favorite one-hit-wonder did scored a pretty interesting stat in 2011. Her "Friday" video ranked as this year's most watched YouTube clip.

With over 180 million views, "Friday" became an overnight sensation and so did its 13-year-old singer. Rebecca (who's part Latina) got to make the rounds on The Tonight Show and even appeared in a Katy Perry video after her clip hit it big. But Black was just one of the many viral sensations who caught on this year.

The second most watched YouTube clip involved (you guessed it) a family pet. No it wasn't a piano-playing feline, but rather the unlucky pooch from "Ultimate Dog Tease." Though it’s just a little over a minute long, "Dog Tease" definitely stirred up laughs (and 74 million views) with its woof woof dialogue.

Saturday Night Live’s Andy Samberg got quite a lot of YouTube attention this year too. Two of his digital SNL skits made the site's annual Top 10. Our personal favorite was "Jack Sparrow" starring Michael Bolton in full Pirates Of The Caribbean garb. Seen by over 60 million fans, it definitely captured the web's attention.

Rounding out the YouTube Top 5 were "Talking Twin Babies" and "Nyan Cat." The first delivered major LOLs with its diaper-clad duo chit chatting in their own goo-goo gaga language. "Nyan" looked like something out of an 80's video game and featured a space bound kitty riding an 8-bit rainbow. Though fun at first glance, be warned! "Nyan's" soundtrack is incessant and may be tough to get out of your head.

Of course, the beauty of YouTube is that most of its videos are created by everyday people. And we're more than certain that these amateur filmmakers earned some serious cash off their millions of views.

You knew it was only a matter of time before the online TV service Hulu started mixing novelas into its rotation. And now, the company is initiating a drastic Hispanic push with the launch of Hulu Latino.

Claiming to offer "the most complete Spanish-language library on the web," Hulu Latino has partnered with a ton of Latin American content providers. Azteca America, Estrella TV, and Maya Entertainment are just a few of the companies who'll be lending their shows to the project.

So far, several top Spanish series have appeared on the Latino lineup. Expect to see Don Francisco Presente, Aqui y Ahora, and the soon-to-be English soap, Soy Tu Dueña. And just like the regular Hulu, the Spanish version will feature highlight clips and episodic breakdowns (for those of us who like to skip around within shows).

All you classic televisión fans are in luck too. Capitalizing the popular "rerun" craze, Hulu Latino will be offering full episodes of shows like Control, Lente Loco, and the original Chespirito!

It's all being done in a push to attract more Hispanic viewers to the site. And judging by the way they've structured it, Hulu Latino will be hard to miss. On the main homepage, the admins have added a big "Latino" tab which takes you to all of your favorite shows.

"We know that a majority of viewers watching Univision and other premium Spanish-language shows move between English and Spanish language programming on a regular basis,” Hulu VP Andy Forssell explained. “Given that, our goal was to delight the Hispanic community by creating a fully-integrated experience within the Hulu environment."

Of course, if you prefer crazy Quinces girls and giant hamsters you know exactly where to go. Tr3s has been dishing out online shows for years and we’ll have plenty of new viral goodies in store come 2012!

This week, Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am debuted his first music video. And judging by the all-star cast he assembled, it's clear he wants to kick off his solo career with a bang. Outside of the high tech effects and stunts, he's nabbed Jennifer Lopez and Mick Jagger for cameo appearances.

The track, titled "T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever)," sounds like it easily could have fit in the BEP catalog. Except instead of Fergie belting out the melodic notes, will’s letting Ms. JLo step behind the mic.

The video features will driving motorcycles, racing cars, and even flying giant spaceships. In between it all, we get to see Lopez dancing in a skin tight body suit and Jagger strutting his stuff in the cosmos.

It all makes for some very colorful visuals, which may actually outshine the song. Truth be told, "T.H.E." sounds a little repetitive and uninspired. Will is definitely capable of making great music, but this lead off single makes us yearn for some extra Peas.

Te gusta Paulina Rubio's "Me Gustas Tanto" video? Right now the verdict seems to be a little mixed. Pau Pau's new clip definitely has a big budget behind it, but many are complaining that it lacks the pizzazz of what a kickoff single should represent.

In essence, "Me Gustas Tanto" is meant to stir up interest in Paulina's long awaited 10th album, Brava! Rubio hasn't released a record in nearly three years and if this is supposed to be her comeback, it may leave a bit to be desired.

Mixing in synthesized beats, an auto tune chorus, and robotic flairs, "Tanto" almost sounds like it could have been a leftover track from JLo's Love? sessions. Nevertheless, Pau Pau's record company is putting a lot of money behind it, with promotions throughout the YouTube and VEVO channels.

But despite its shortcomings, there's still a lot to like about the "Tantos" video. Rubio has sexy scenes where she's doused in glitter and using a provocatively placed leaf to cover her private parts! Not bad for a 40-year-old mom.

Could Selena Gomez be getting into the Halloween spirit a little early? The teen pop star recently channeled her inner "chola" for a hilarious new Europe Music Awards promo.

Dressed in over-sized earrings, dark red lipstick, and a grey bandana, Gomez appeared as an alter ego of herself in the spot and even threw out some pretty impressive rap lines. The theme was centered around the song "Congratulations To Me," and featured Selena giving herself a well-deserved pat on the back.

Gomez' spots proved to be so popular, the EMA site posted several different versions of them. The extended promo runs a full two-minutes and features foul-mouthed lyrics, courtesy of Cholena.

Gomez even kept the street vibe with her tweets, posting a link along with the words, "Check it, Yo!!! LOL".

So now we've got to wonder, could the new Selena be making an appearance at the EMA's show? We're thinking it's very possible and who knows? She may even walk up alongside with Lady Gaga's Jo Calderone.

At this stage of the game, Jennifer Lopez is pretty easy to make fun of. Whether it’s her famous "junk in the trunk," her autotune lyrics, or those multiple husbands she keeps leaving behind, J to the Lo is a prime target for video parodies. And La Coacha and Jiggy Drama have lovingly skewered the A.I. diva and her latest hit "Papi."

Calling their track "Puppy," the four-minute video takes jabs at Marc Anthony, Bradley Cooper, and (you guessed it) William Levy. Coacha has built a huge online rep for her work with Perez Hilton and her hilarious viral videos. For this one, she does a dead-on Jennifer impression, right down the white suit!

Jiggy doesn't actually appear in the clip, but raps out a hilarious Pitbull impression for a spoof of "On The Floor." The Pit in the "Puppy" clip is an actual canine, complete with sunglasses and rough reggaeton beats.

So far, "Puppy" has garnered tens of thousands of YouTube views and has received a heavy push from Hilton's site (he exec produced the video). And if you dig it, you should definitely check out La Coacha's homepage, which features a great spoof of Lady Gaga's "Alejandro."
