Hey look Enrique is in my city ! And thats totally true, Enrique Iglesias the famous popstar has recently made a partnership with CityVille, one of the most played games on facebook which has over 232 millon active monthly users in 166 different countries. And he now can go by and pay a visit to your city. Cityville is from Zynga games, which reportedly occupy all five top positions among games on Facebook. (The other four are Empires & Allies, Texas HideEm Poker, FarmVille, and Adventure World.) In only a week, players were able to build “Euphoria Arenas” in their cities collect some free branded virtual items, preview a video of his single “I Like How It Feels” and interact with the singer’s avatar.  The Enrique game feature ran from October 4th to October 10th in CityVille. Some features Enrique brings with him: ·         Enrique Himself, a la Zynga – When Enrique appears in your city, click on his avatar to see what he has to say! ·         Enrique Lifestyle Items – Collect Enrique’s trademark brown boots, leather bracelet, military cap and even a 2-seater plane that celebrates his love of flying. ·         Limited Edition Rewards – Place an Enrique-themed speedboat and Miami high-rise in your city. ·         Fun “Quests” In-game – Obtain ten Enrique concert posters from friends and collect earnings from 30 businesses in your city. ·         Euphoria Tour Stop – Build Enrique’s Euphoria Arena and unlock a preview of Enrique’s newest music video in-game “I Like How it Feels” (featuring Pitbull and The WAV.s). This partenership comes accompanied by Quique’s new tour presenting Euphoria. Enrique is the third celebrity to enter the virtual worlds from Zynga, previously with appeareances of Dr. Dre in mafia wars and Lady gaga in farm ville The game is totally free for everyone, Zynga only makes money from the relatively small number of users who purchase virtual goods that enhance their gaming experience, but after four years of operation the company has become quite profitable, taking into account that 72 million players collaborate with others to build their own virtual cities with parks, farms, football stadiums, even taco retailers. Since Facebook has implemented Facebook Credits payment system, every gaming company that uses facebook as a platform is having some drawbacks. The new facebook credit policy takes a 30 percent cut of revenue on the sales of all those virtual goods. So what do you think, is this a good way to get players for their games? Is Enrique Iglesias reference of our culture, or would you have chosen somebody else? @ilpepoz

Girl power and retailer stores

Let us tell you about two huge reasons to check your nearest K-Mart and Target stores on these days. Both of them have partnered with Female Latin Pop Stars to be exclusive homes of their brand new project.

We are talking about Selena Gomez and Gloria Stefan. The first one is the most popular teenager actress/musician nowadays. With only 19 years, this young girl has over 23 million likes on her facebook page (even more than Barack Obama!), record breaking songs, millions of fans… and now she even has her own clothing line. This youthful, fresh clothing collection is called Dream Out Loud, and represents, as Selena says, not only her own style, but also all of her generation style.

Dream Out Loud collection is sold exclusively on K-Mart. Check it on K-Mart web page 

As for Gloria Stefan, it´s all about returning to basics. This seven-time GRAMMY Award-winning artist has announced her partnering with Target Corporation for the exclusive deluxe edition of her new dance album “Miss Little Havana”. This is her 24th album and first English-language release since 2003, and it represents her returning to were it all came from… the dance floor. She says that her fans asked her for a dance record, so… here it is!

“Miss Little Havana” will be avalaible at all Target stores nationwide beginning September 27.  As part of this partnership, Target is currently the only retailer in the U.S. to carry the physical album. In addition, the album sold at Target includes four bonus songs and exclusive access to downloadable content.
