She had a #1 in France with “Are you Ready?” in 2008, so pint-sized powerhouse Kat Deluna stopped in at Barrio Latino last night for some Carnivale action, and to promote her upcoming album.
Unfortunately for her, the reinstatement of the Barrio Latino’s Carnivale party (which used to be the hottest party of the season for models of the Rio denomination) was less than successful after a five year absence. The turn-out was poor, only a few model agencies had tables, and there was obviously a very loose doorman. Blame la Crise?
Making matters worse, no one seemed to understand the rising star’s Bronx-accented English. “Are y’all ready to get dauuuwn tanight?” Her crowd-speak eventually switched over to Spanish, which received more of a reaction. All in all, she gave a hot performance that deserved a better welcome than Barrio Latino.
