Billboard Latin Music Awards Website Goes Live
Although the winners are determined by the commercial success of last year's releases, this year you'll be able to have some additional input - your initial input ocurred when you purchased the music! "Premio Tu Mundo" is a new award that will be determined as a result of online votes.
The voting is divided in 2 phases: the first (which starts today) is a selection of 25 finalists from a gallery of all the finalists. Then, on March 25th, you'll be able to select your favorites from the top 25.
So let your favorite artsts feel the love by voting for them to win the first ever "Premio Tu Mundo". I have to admit that it would be surprising if the winners are different from those that take home an actual Latin Music Billboard award. If you feel an artist is hot enough to warrant an online vote, wouldn't you have already purchased their song/album/video?
I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

The Billboard ceremony is actually very boring, the nominees are okay I guess. I’m happy for some artists like Fanny Lu & Kany Garcia, that even if they didn’t sell lots of albums manage to get so many noms. The good thing is that they are deserved noms indeed.
For me, the only two premios that I give some credibility are the Latin Grammys and MTVs Latinoamerica. And there’s of course the awards given by the national academies of Mexico, Spain, Colombia and Argentina.
