Cristina!: My Life as a Blonde

by Cristina Saralegui

Meet Cristina the superstar. The granddaughter of the foremost publishing czar in Cuba, she fled as an adolescent to the United States after the revolution. A young woman working her way up through the ranks of the North American-based Spanish-language media, she eventually assumed the reins of Cosmopolitan en Espanol. After ten years with Cosmopolitan, Cristina made the boldest move of her career - creating and hosting El Show de Cristina, the talk show she has developed into the phenomenon seen by 100 million worldwide. Friend and confidante to celebrities both inside and outside the Hispanic world, she also hosts a radio show heard all over Latin America and publishes the magazine Cristina La Revista, read avidly by thousands of fans every month. Meet Cristina the Motivator. Groundbreaker and role model for women everywhere - especially Latinas - she offers advice, based on the life she has lived and the wisdom she has earned, on overcoming racial and sexual discrimination...raising children...keeping a happy marriage...growing older gracefully...and the Winner's Ten Commandments.

[Gustavo Lopez · Rating 5 out of 5]

Sabía de Cristina Saralegui por las entrevistas que le hacía a mi artista favorito y porque mi mamá decía que se parece a una tía. Esa era toda la información que tenía sobre Cristina.

Encontré este libro en una librería de viejo (libros usados) y ahora, después de leerlo, estoy convencido de que es la mejor biografía (autobiografía, de hecho) que he leído en el 2018.

Es increíble lo que ha logrado Cristina, pues cambió la forma en que se hacía televisión.

¡Realmente un libro que vale inmensamente la pena leer y releer!
