Gloria Estefan
Getting this caliber of musicians together [for 90 Millas CD in September of 2007] is almost impossible to do again.
Gloria Estefan
Neither. I did not bring my crown, and the last thing I would want to do is get into politics.
Gloria Estefan
My guitar and singing was my way of crying.
