I like them in their natural state. They're like nuclear lemonades! - Gloria Estefan

We [Emilio and I] have diversified: We run four restaurants, a hotel, a recording studio, a publishing company, and we have our corporate offices and a lot of other real estate.

The last thing I wanted to do was put politics into my music . . . because music was my escape.
