Special Mentions at Latin American Music Awards
Celebrities we talked about earlier were not the only ones to attend the extravaganza. So, here are a few other icons from the Latin music industry who created headlines with their buzz-worthy glam-up.
Want some dashing dose of celebrity jewelry? Look no further than Wendy Guevara, a Mexican influencer, singer and actress. She in fact turned the Latin American Music Awards red carpet into a fashion jewelry ramp. She styled a pair of golden statement danglers with bold alphabets and clubbed it with a mid-length black dress. But what grabbed eagle eyes was her headdress just as the one you wear in a masquerade.
Colombian pop singer Manuel Medrano was definitely one of the best-dressed men of the day. He posed more than just confidently in his white two-piece suit with a light blue shirt and an elegant bow. In addition, a couple of rings and elegant sunglasses made the cool dude look super hot. On stage, he was joined by his gang for a phenomenal live act on three of their songs.
Camila Fernández, a Mexican singer and Alejandro Fernández’s daughter, dolled up in an all-black flowy gown from Alberto Rodríguez’s collection. What stood out were the more than just pretty green-leafed blue, peach, violet and red blossoms blooming on her dress.

Wrapping it all the red carpet way!
This year’s Latin American Music Award show was quite special. Well, it’s not because of jaw-dropping red-carpet semblances or spell-binding music performances. But it was because two languages were used for the first time in the live hosting – Spanish and English. It was the first for any award function of this stature.
