"If This Is To Be Our End" Chayanne's Whirlwind No Hay Imposibles Tour Closes With Last Show In Oaxaca

"If this is to be our end, then I would have them make such an end as to be worthy of remembrance." ~ King Theoden From  the Lord Of The Rings, Two Towers

October 29, at the Auditorio la Guelaguetza, in Oaxaca, Mexico Chayanne ended his 18 month run of "No Hay Imposibles. I didn't have the pleasure of being at the last show, but from the looks of the pictures, the tweets, and video uploads, Chayanne ended his tour the EXACT same way that he started it.....HARD CORE!!! 


I'm going to go out on a limb and say that there have been very few concert tours that landed on Billboard's "Top Ten Tours" every week that they had a show. Can your mind wrap itself around that? REALLY? That means that of all the tours being held over the last 18 months that NHI placed in the top ten based on Total Gross, Show Dates, Show Venue/City (Shows/Sellouts), Total Attendance (Capacity).


I'm also going to go out on a limb and say that there have been very few concert tours where there has been such a strong sense of connection from the artist, to the dancers, the musicians, crew and the fans. Thanks to the advances of the social media outlets, we were able to share tweets and videos from Chayanne and Nancy's behind the scenes clips, to the very well put together video clips made by the dancers.(Belly Buttons don't die! They multiply!)


I know I can speak for myself, my very dear friend Anniee Renes of Chayanne Rocks, and the incredible ladies of Pandora's Caja when I say that we had a blast with Nancy O'Meara and her first ever fan driven interview. Nancy you are amazing....and you Dazzle! Our interviews with Brandon Barton and Marcus E. Mitchell (go ahead and scream they are super fine hotties!)


Pandora's Caja over the last year has been a blast! It started out with just me and now I have the great pleasure of working along side five incredible sister's in the cause, Bariloche, Candela, Fantasia Chayane (who almost single handedly makes Pandora's Caja page on FB run like a well oiled machine! Besos!) Glamour Girl, and La Guerita. These ladies are the heartbeats of the box.


Yesterday Chayanne sent this beautiful message to his fans via twitter and email:

"Today I share with you a sense of excitement and gratitude. "No Hay Imposibles" (Nothing is Impossible), my tour, has just ended and I'm happy to have shared it with you, in every country, every city, in every heart. Only your love, your energy and your support makes it possible for me to be there for you.

For over a year and a half I enjoyed every loving detail I received on stage, in hotels, airports, wherever I went.  It is a sign of your affection and you're all very well loved in return. I'd also like to thank the media from all around for their support and respect. Now begins a new phase for me and new projects, which I will soon be sharing with you. 

Hug,

Chayanne"

Personally this has been 18 months of unexpected things, some good, some not so good, and then there were the things that that only sweet dreams are made of. There's only one thing that could be better than all of this.......and that I think I'll keep to  myself ;)


Peace~

The End Of One, Is The Beginning Of Another

Tonight is the final show of Chayanne's "No Hay Imposibles" tour....so for me it's only fitting that I write a blog that marks the end of the tour, in the same manner that I wrote the blog that marked the beginning, listening to "Me Enamore de Ti".....

This has been one hell of a ride (can I say hell and still be family friendly?) From the first show, of the first leg of the U.S. tour until tonight, the last show of the second leg of the Latin countries tour, Chayanne and his entire crew have given 200% of everything they had EVERY SINGLE SHOW! There is not one single true Chayanne fan that could honestly ask for more.

To the dancers, we have watched the dancers change over the course of the tour, but each and every one of you that we had the privilege of getting to know we have fallen in love with. We've had a blast getting to know you, and we appreciate you sharing yourselves with us. You have shared your "personal selves" not only your "professional selves" and for that we are eternally grateful. (We hope that we see all of you on the next tour!)  You're firmly in the Chayanne fan family...so you know what this means right? It means that we're going to support you in all that you do. *HUGS*

Nancy, what can I say! We had a blast with you this tour! You have been there with Chayanne for over ten years kicking out incredible choreography for tour after tour, after tour, and this one was no exception.  Many thanks for opening yourself up to Pandora's Caja and all of Chayanne fans by sharing yourself with us via two amazing first of their kind interviews. (I hear Chayanne's already twirling around ideas for his next album...does that mean you're twirling around ideas for hot choreography to go with that hot music? Yeah Baby! *wink*) 

Nancy O'Meara...hey Anniee how did you sneak in here! *wink*

As Anniee would say, "You're one BARH!" Someday I hope to meet you in person! Much Love!

To you Papcito, what can I say.....you've given us so much there's almost not enough words to say other than thank you and we love you. You've given us so much more than music...you gave us music that soothed our hearts and whispered to our souls. You gave us your energy, passion and who could ever forget that smile of yours. This is the end of one heck of a year.....but I also know that there is something even greater waiting just around the bend. *HUGS*

With that said my people, I have nothing better to leave you with that the words that Carol Burnett used to sing at the end of her show....Much Love

~Peace

Carol's Theme

I'm so glad we had this time together,
Just to have a laugh, or sing a song.
Seems we just get started and before you Know it
Comes the time we have to say, "So long".

There's a time you put aside for dreamin.
And a time for things you have to do.
The time I love the best is any evening
I can spend a moment here with you.

When the time comes and I'm feelin' lonely
And I'm feelin' oh so blue.
I just sit back and think of you only
And the happiness still comes through.

That's why I'm glad we had this time together.
Cause it makes me feel like I'm along.
Seems we just get started and before you know it
Comes the time we have to say, "So Long".

Good night everybody!

Chayanne on Oprah! Is This The Holy Grail of Video Clips?

I think that for all of us "Dance With Me" fans, it is! Anniee of ChayanneRocks has uploaded a video clip of Chayanne and Vanessa Williams giving an interview with Oprah. They talk about the film, what it was like to work together....did you know that Oprah has a house in Miami about three minutes away from Chayanne....lucky Oprah! Chayanne and Vanessa dance together of course, which is amazing, but the kicker is, Chayanne dances with a random member of the audience! 10 or 11 years later and she's probably still in shock! God knows I would be~ Let me take the time to say officially, this is why Anniee is the "Video Ninja"! Anniee has video clips that no true Chayanne fan can live without. If you are a Chayanne fan and have never been to ChayanneRocks, you don't know what you're missing! Just make yourself a pot of coffee, or tea, and and just try and get through all of the Chayanne video footage that Anniee has in her library in one sitting.....you'll never make it! But you'll enjoy the challenge! Peace~

Chayanne ~ E! Behind The Scenes of Dance With Me

Before this blog even begins let me give my thank you's! Many thanks to Anniee of "ChayanneRocks" for letting me use these video clips. Anniee had said that I could uplod them on to YouTube, but part one of the set of clips was a little too long...Maybe Anniee will edit it for me! I did manage to get part 2 uploaded so you will be able to access that part of the interview on YouTube.

For those of you who are DWM fans, I know that you want to see anything and everything that has to do with that movie! For those of you who are Chayanne fans, you want to see anything that has to do with "Papi Chulo"! For those of you who are English language fans, you know how hard it is to get good footage of Chayanne speaking in English!

These clips are pay dirt! There is something here for all of you! This is an in depth look at what happened with DWM.

There is a part in the clip where Chayanne talks about the scene in the bathroom, you know, the one with the towel....to hear him talk about it is so sweet! It's truly one of those "Ahhhhhh" moments.

Well enough talking....enjoy!

Chayanne' favorito de Video~ A de la muchacha de s Guajira entre fans de habla inglesa del afroamericano

Chayanne' favorito de Video~ A de la muchacha de s Guajira entre fans de habla ianglesa del afroamericano ..... Para cualquiera de usted que me conozcan, cuánto tiempo usted me piensa podría tener un blog y no escribir sobre el vídeo musical que me empujó sobre el acantilado del amor de Chayanne, después de encontrarlo en el " de la película.. Baila Conmigo" , ese vídeo era " Guajira Girl".

¡Me demostraron este vídeo como un mojado detrás de los oídos avienta, por el Vixen video de Chayanne, Anniee de las famosas Chayanne Rocks! Anniee me dio este vídeo en respuesta a una pregunta que hice. Le pregunté cuántos fans de habla inglesa eran activos en la comunidad de Chayville, y fuera de esos fans cuántos eran afroamericano.

Llámelo una preocupación conmigo, pero, como mujer del afroamericano, necesito saber un artista siente sobre la gente de la persuasión del afroamericano….¡no cada uno es parcial al hh de brown....sh del color, él es un secreto así que no dice! Bien, el mismo día escribí a Anniee esta pregunta, ella me envié el acoplamiento a este vídeo en su Web site….Muchacha de Guajira….¡Caí en amor!



¡Chayanne rodeó por las mujeres negras hermosas! Cuando ese vídeo era hecho yo están seguro que puede ser que no haya sido la cosa más popular a hacer, pero él la hizo sin embargo.

Tengo que decir que he visto casi todos sus vídeos musicales y a una gran mayoría de sus vídeos del funcionamiento, y he llegado a esta conclusión ..... Chayanne soy un hombre de la gente.

¡Tan a todas mis hermanas del afroamericano que son amantes de Chayanne del armario, no son tímidas, se adelantan hacia fuera en el Chayshine!

Chayanne's Guajira Girl Video~ A favorite among African American English speaking fans

For any of you that know me, how long do you think I could have a blog and not write about the music video that pushed me over the cliff of Chayanne love, after finding him in the movie "Dance With Me", that video was "Guajira Girl". I was turned on to this video as a still wet behind the ears fan, by the Chayanne Video Vixen herself, Anniee of the famous Chayanne Rocks!

Anniee turned me on to this video in response to a question that I had. I asked her how many English speaking fans were active in the Chayville community, and out of those fans how many were African American. Call it a thing with me, but, as an African American woman, I need to know how an artist feels about people of the shall we say "the browner persuasion"....not everyone is partial to brown....shhh, it's a secret so don't let it out!

Well, the same day I emailed Anniee this question, she sent me the link to this video on her website....Guajira Girl....I fell in love!



Chayanne surrounded by beautiful black women! When that video was made I'm sure that might not have been the most popular thing to do, but he did it any way.

I have to say that I have seen almost all of his music videos and a great majority of his performance videos, and I have come to this conclusion.....Chayanne is a man of the people.

So to all my African American Sisters who are closet Chayanne lovers, don't be shy, come on out into the Chayshine!
