[edit] Mexican pop Disagreement

I consent with Juan Gabriel’s picture being remove for a better representation of the articles format structure and Thalia not being consider a diva. However, I disagree with Luis Miguel not being consider a pop singer when singing with a mariachi. This is on the basis that a pop singer doesn’t stop being a pop singer primarily because he or she may not be performing a pop song at the time. Although it’s true the image may cause confusion it has being well establish that Latin pop, mixes rhythms such as salsa, samba, banda and reggae (see Wikipeida article on “Latin pop”). In addition the use of the color green diminishes the representation of the genre as an American establishment and depicts such genera as another cheap American byproduct. The color blue is a better fit being a stronger, vivre, flashier color like the genre itself.

Nonetheless green may have being chosen as the color base on patriotism, but is being patriotic worth deafening you? Furthermore, is it the way to go? If green is steal the ideal. Can it be a darker shade of green? Lastly, the Paulina Rubio picture was left because it fits with you’re convention and ideas not for any other reason.75.62.146.6 (talk) 03:32, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


I don't really care about the green colour, I just changed it because green is kinda like the colour that represents Mexico and because I was pressing the [undo] bottom ^^!, anyways you may change it to blue if you want, now regarding the Luis Miguel picture, I think you said it yourself, portraying him singing mariachi may lead visitors to think that mariachi is part of the "Mexican Pop" which obviously isn’t it is a different genre, and about Thalia being a Diva well… she's just one of many Mexican singers, in fact I think she hasn't released a new album in quite a while so I don’t know what would eb the basis to call her a diva, regards.
