Jax must be too young, it is usually something that they start in school, when singing happy bday to each other, they add in the cha-cha-cha, just as SG had it in her version there.

[Gabz]

OIC - it's a totally new one on me.

And the dancing, don't forget that! You have to do a little twist during the cha-cha-cha part and save the Shakira part for the very end. ;)

Condi Rice verbally slapped the plebeian Chirac this week. Everytime she makes the news, I think "What a WOMAN!!"

She's a better dancer than Charo ever was, but now I'm afraid the croqs are going into a frenzy.

My dearly departed dad loved Charo. Xshub and i ate at her restaurant in Kauai when we were there.

Shakira does nothing for me. Condi, on the other hand...

She always looked like she was having a blast, didn't she?

[Gabz]

I always liked Charo - I think she's a hoot!!!!

Charo had fun with her persona. She was always great on The Johnny Carson Show. That woman had so much energy. Wonder what she's up to now.

I guess I'll go to Google!
