Penelope Cruz the second Lateena to win Oscar




I dont know if anyone was watching the Oscars last night but history was made again, and it was by one of our own beautiful Lateena actresses. Penelope Cruz won supporting role in "Vicky Christina Barcelona." If you werent watching then you missed the acceptance speech, at the end of it she says in spanish that the win was for her home town in Spain. We congratulate her for a well earned Oscar and wish her all the best in her future. There was also alot of mention that Penelope was the first Lateena to ever win an Oscar, but that was an incorrect statement that a number of writers have made. This might of been an error, its possible that the writers meant that she was the first Spaniard to win an Oscar but she was not the first Lateena to win an Oscar. The first was Rita Moreno in " West Side Story" she also won other firsts like the Emmy, Grammy, Tony, and the Sarah Siddons Award. Nevertheless we give the love and respect to both of our Oscar winners and recognize all their hard works and careers and wish the world to them.
