Meet Paquita Gallego The Woman Behind One Of Telemundo Africa's Most Popular Series My Heart Beats For Lola

Telemundo is expected to air My Heart Beats For Lola (Mi Corazon Insiste En Lola Volcan) later in the week and although some can't stand the near sight of the salamander here's a series I recommend you to watch which is the 1998 classic I Love You Paquito Gallego (Yo Amo A Paquita Gallego).

- The Search For Frida March 2022 teasers

- Upcoming programming for Telemundo Africa

- Nurses March 2022 teasers

- The Homemaker, The Accidental Mayor and Happily Ever After coming soon to Star Life

Believe it or not most of Telemundo's popular shows were derived from somewhere. Take for instance, Lord Of The Skies (El Señor De Los Cielos) which was based on the life of Amado Carillo Fuentes known to viewers as Aurelio Casillas and Queen Of The South which was derived from a book of the same name.

My Heart Beats For Lola joins the never ending list of shows that never ending list with I Love You Paquita Gallego and before you feel like skipping this article take some time to do research on the show and you'll discover a lot more to that series.

Cristina Umaña played the titular character which resembled Carmen Villalobos' Lola Volcan. The only difference was the identity of her father was never revealed as her mom who apparently was a rape victim who died later on the series alongside her aunt died and Paquita had a skin rash forcing her to be homeschooled.

- tvN unveils a bunch of music and variety shows

- This City Will Come Behind You coming soon to Timeless Dizi Channel

- Pantaya working on several new shows featuring several Telemundo and TLNovelas cast members

Compared to The Search For Frida, the changes Telemundo made when adapting I Love You Paquita Gallego is very remarkable. If I had to be honest, I'd rather watch the original as the show appears to be more darker.

As mentioned, Paquita's mother died earlier in the show while Lola's mother was there till the very end but was distant throughout the show as she was held prisoner by the lost love. Who do you think filled that plot of Lola's mother in I Love You Paquita Gallego seeing that she passed on?

TRAGEDY 💔: The True Story Of Disney's Beloved Fairytale Princess, Pocahontas

Many tales have been told about Pocahontas, but not all of them are true.

Pocahontas has been romanticized throughout American history, thanks in no small part to the accounts of English settlers John Smith and John Rolfe, and of course, the 1995 Disney animated movie. But who was the real Pocahontas?

To help dispel the many myths surrounding the popular Native American figure, here are some facts that originate from Native American oral history and contemporary historical accounts.

Pocahontas was actually her nickname

Born around 1596, Pocahontas was actually known as Amonute, and to those closest to her, Matoaka. The name Pocahontas, in fact, belonged to her mother, who died while giving birth to her.

- The suicide anthem Gloomy Sunday

Devastated by his wife's death, Pocahontas' father, Chief Powhatan Wahunseneca of the Pamunkey tribe of Virginia, called his little daughter Pocahontas as a nickname, which meant "playful one" or "ill-behaved child."

A spirited young girl who liked to do cartwheels, Pocahontas grew up to be a brave and intelligent leader and translator on behalf of her people.

There was no romance between Pocahontas and John Smith

By the time 27-year-old Smith and the rest of the English colonists arrived on Native American lands in 1607, Pocahontas was probably around 10 years old. Despite Smith embellishing the idea of a romance between them in order to sell books that he'd later author, they were never involved.

What is true is that Smith spent a few months with Pocahontas' tribe as a captive, and while there, he and Pocahontas taught each other basic aspects of their respective language.

Pocahontas would later marry Indian warrior Kocoum at age 14 and shortly give birth to their son "little Kocoum."

Pocahontas didn't warn Smith of a planned assassination against him

While Smith was being held prisoner, Chief Powhatan grew to trust him. In 1607 the chief decided to offer Smith a "werowance" role, which was the tribe's way of acknowledging him as an official leader of the colonies, giving him access to coveted resources such as food and better land.

Smith would later allege that while he trained to become a werowance, Pocahontas warned him of a deadly plot against him, and thus, saved his life. However, contemporary accounts show that if a Native American chief was honoring a man, there would be no threat to his life.

Additionally, children were forbidden to attend a werowance ceremony, so Pocahontas wouldn't have been present.

Pocahontas was not traded to the English; she was kidnapped and raped

With tensions rising between the Powhatan and the English, rumors spread that Pocahontas was a prime target for kidnapping. Hoping to prevent future attacks by Native Americans, English Captain Samuel Argall made those rumors a reality and took the Chief's beloved daughter away with him after threatening violence against her village.

Before leaving, Argall offered a copper pot to the tribe and later claimed the two parties had made a trade. Forced to leave her husband and small son, Pocahontas boarded an English ship, not knowing that colonists had murdered her husband Kocoum shortly after.

While captive in Jamestown, Pocahontas was raped by possibly more than one colonist — an act that was incomprehensible to Native Americans. She grew into a deep depression and had a second son out of wedlock. That son would be named Thomas Rolfe, whose biological father may have actually been Sir Thomas Dale.

Pocahontas was not an eager goodwill ambassador of the New World

The story of Pocahontas marrying tobacco planter Rolfe for love is highly unlikely, especially considering Rolfe was under great financial pressure to somehow forge an alliance with the Powhatan to learn their secret tobacco curing techniques.

In the end, he decided the best way to win over the Powhatan was to marry Pocahontas, who all the while was being forced to wear English clothes, convert to Christianity and adopt the name, Rebecca.

Out of fear of being kidnapped himself, Chief Powhatan didn't attend Rolfe and Pocahontas' wedding ceremony and instead, offered a pearl necklace as a gift. He'd never see his daughter again.

To help further fund the tobacco business in the colonies, Rolfe took Pocahontas and son Thomas with him to England to show the court the "goodwill" between the colonists and Native Americans. Thus, Pocahontas was used as a prop, paraded around as an Indian princess who embraced western culture.

Although she was considered in good health right before leaving England, Pocahontas suddenly fell ill and died after dining with Rolfe and Argall, the man who kidnapped her. The tribesmen who accompanied Pocahontas on the trip believed she was poisoned.

At the time of her death, Pocahontas was around 21 years of age. She was buried in Gravesend, England at Saint George’s Church on March 21, 1617. The location of her remains is unknown.

EVIL🔞: "Gloomy Sunday" The Song That Caused Suicides

If you're under 18 then this isn't for you

“Gloomy Sunday,” came to existence during one of history’s bleakest moments. Written in 1933 by Hungarian pianist and composer Reszõ Seress against the backdrop of the Great Depression and an increasing fascist influence in Hungary, and originally recorded in 1935 by Pál Kalmár, the song is something of a plea for mercy as humanity is at its worst. Seress’ original published lyrics were titled “Vége a világnak,” or “The World Is Ending,” and reflected a growing sense of horror and despair at the state of the world. A key sample lyric translates to “Meadows are coloured red with human blood/There are dead people on the streets everywhere,” just to give a frame of reference for the level of darkness that Seress’ composition harbored. No wonder it’s been blamed for anywhere between 17 and over 100 suicides.

To hear “Gloomy Sunday” is to be blanketed in tragic beauty. The song’s minor key melody is at once incredibly catchy and ominously dark, crafted to evoke a sense of despair that transcends language. While Seress’ song became an international hit, eventually being recorded by Billie Holiday in what’s now probably the most famous version of the song, one need only hear the emotion in Kalmár’s gently aching voice to know the pain behind the verses. (Not to mention the vintage crackle of the nearly 90-year-old song gives it a particularly ghostly quality.) Yet its origins stem from something as simple as a breakup, Seress having written the song after the end of a relationship. That the song delved so deep into such harrowing personal feelings initially proved to be an obstacle for the songwriter in his attempt to have it published. One publisher reportedly said, “there is a sort of terrible compelling despair about it” about his reluctance to publish the song.

And yet, in spite of this, “Gloomy Sunday” eventually became a hit. More than that, it became a standard, recorded in many languages by countless artists, including Billie Holiday, Sinead O’Connor, Mel Tormé and Sarah Vaughn. But to hear the lore about the song, it’d seem to have some kind of sinister power over the people who hear it. It’s not even corporeal, but it has a massive body count. Some of the various accounts of its supposed, morbid misdeeds include: a shoemaker whose suicide note quoted the song; a girl in Vienna drowning while holding its sheet music; a man who shot himself after telling loved ones the song wouldn’t leave his head; a woman in London who overdosed while listening to “Gloomy Sunday”; sheet music was found in the apartment of a shopkeeper in Berlin who hanged herself—the list goes on, and those are only the apocryphal accounts that have managed to live on in the near-century since the song came into being. It’s a merciless fiend of a song, almost supernatural, like the video in The Ring you see before you die. Which, perhaps, makes my repeated listens to the song over the past week ill-advised. If it did, in fact, cause the carnage attributed to it.

Because of the epidemic of suicides in the aftermath of the song’s release, and possibly because of it, Hungarian authorities supposedly discouraged broadcast of the song. A more extreme version of the song was that it was banned, and an even more extreme one yet was that it was even banned in the US and UK, where its popularity spread. None of this, at least according to Snopes, can be corroborated, but it’s entirely understandable if broadcasters and the government were a little on edge because of what they were hearing. And to be fair, it is a mournful song. Gloomy, even! It’s not at all surprising to hear that deathrock icons Christian Death later covered it or, for that matter, doom metal band Pallbearer, whose version is actually quite stunning. But it does take a certain frame of mind to hear this song and not feel a sense of dread. “Terrible compelling despair” doesn’t seem at all exaggerated in describing the song, though that doesn’t mean it’s bad. It’s quite pretty, and its earliest versions, particularly in the original Hungarian, are utterly haunting.

- Murder of Dee Dee Blanchard - the woman who drugged and confined her daughter to a wheelchair

In some sense, the monstrous stories about “Gloomy Sunday” wreaking havoc seem to be a distraction from the genuine sadness surrounding the song. The landscape in which it was released was one of the darkest of the 20th century, as prosperity declined and iron-fisted hateful authoritarians rose. And we’re in a landscape now, globally, that mirrors the era in too many ways. And Hungary, up through the ’80s, had one of the highest suicide rates of any country in the world, which suggests that “Gloomy Sunday” was merely a reflection of the despair that surrounded it, rather than its cause. Most tragic of all, however, Seress himself dying after jumping off of a building in Budapest in 1968, which makes it the sole concrete connection among all of the stories out there. (There is also a story about the woman who broke up with him, initially inspiring the writing of the song, dying herself after hearing it, though there’s no evidence or documentation of this, just secondhand telephone games with the dead.)

Given all the baggage that “Gloomy Sunday” carries, it’s a song that’s easier to analyze than enjoy. Can one simply listen to a song that’s supposedly such a powerful, overwhelmingly dark presence without context. Can it be enjoyed for what it is? It can, possibly. But with the flood of information that’s already been disseminated, there’s more context than song, at this point. In 2019, it can’t be separated from its reputation as “The Hungarian Suicide Song,” for better or for worse. To hear it, however, it’s impossible to shake the lingering eerie feeling that it leaves with you. Beware of its hitchhiking ghosts.

Charlie Brown's Early Years - Peter Robbins

Peter Robbins (born Louis Nanasi; August 10, 1956 – c. January 18, 2022) was an American child actor. Robbins gained national fame in the 1960s as being the first actor to voice Charlie Brown in the Peanuts animated specials. As reported in the past week, the child actor passed away at the age of 65 so here's a list of Peanut projects the former child actor starred in.

A Boy Named Charlie Brown (1963)

A 1965 documentary film was screened for the Greater San Francisco Advertising Club, where it was received with considerable enthusiasm, but Mendelson was unsuccessful in securing sponsorship.

- Moon Knight debuts this March on Disney+

- Upcoming programming for Cartoonito in Europe, Middle East and Africa

- National Geographic Kids Africa launches in 2022

Although never aired on television, the documentary was instrumental in garnering commercial support and the creative teamwork that resulted in A Charlie Brown Christmas in 1965 and the ensuing series of Peanuts television specials.

A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)

On their way to join their friends ice skating on a frozen pond, Charlie Brown confides in Linus that, despite the Christmas season, he is still depressed. After Linus' reproach, and a put-down from Violet, he visits Lucy's psychiatric booth and tells her his problem. She suggests that he direct the group's annual Christmas play to get him involved, and he accepts.

A Charlie Brown Christmas received high ratings and acclaim from critics. It has been honored with an Emmy and a Peabody Award, and has become an annual presentation in the United States, airing on broadcast television during the Christmas season.

Charlie Brown's All-Stars (1966)

A sequel to the 1965 special A Charlie Brown's Christmas, Charlie Brown's baseball team loses their first game of the season, his players quit. Linus meets Charlie Brown with good news: Mr. Hennessey, the operator of the local hardware store, is offering to sponsor Charlie Brown's baseball team, place them in an organized league, and even buy them new uniforms. The special was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Children's Program in 1967.

It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (1966)

Second holiday themed special following A Charlie Brown's Christmas, as Halloween approaches, Linus and Lucy Van Pelt go out to the local pumpkin patch to find a pumpkin. Lucy selects the largest they can find, and makes Linus carry it back to the house. He becomes upset when Lucy starts cutting it to make a jack-o-lantern. After the opening titles, Snoopy helps Charlie Brown finish raking a pile of leaves. Linus jumps into the heap with a large lollipop, resulting in leaves sticking to his face and lollipop. Then Lucy entices Charlie Brown to kick her football by showing him a signed agreement, but then pulls it away as usual before pointing out the agreement never got notarized.

He's Your Dog, Charlie Brown (1968)

It Was A Short Summer, Charlie Brown (1969)

At camp, Charlie is chosen as captain of the boys' camp. The boys and girls have a swim race, which the girls win easily. Then they have a softball game, which the boys lose with only one run. Other competitions are just as lopsided.

A Boy Named Charlie Brown (1969)

When Charlie Brown's baseball team loses the first Little League game of the season, he becomes convinced that he will not win anything. Linus encourages him to maintain a positive attitude and suggests that people learn more from losing. When Charlie Brown remains morose ("That makes me the smartest person in the world", he says), Linus assures him that he will eventually win at something, but makes a liar of himself by beating Charlie at a game of tic-tac-toe. That night, Snoopy has a nightmare where he is a World War I flying ace, and is shot down while fighting an aerial battle with an unknown enemy (possibly the Red Baron), and he takes over Charlie Brown's bed. The next morning, when Charlie Brown stops at Lucy's psychiatric help booth, she prepares slides to show him all of his faults; the experience only leaves him more depressed. On the way to school the next day, Lucy jokingly suggests that Charlie Brown enter the school spelling bee.

Meet Madeleine McCann, The Inspiration Behind Telemundo's Where Is Elisa? And The Search For Frida

The McCann family went on vacation, along with seven other adults and their children to Praia De Luz, Portugal. The resort in which they were staying at was described as a "boring concrete jungle infested with snobbish locals".

The families all stayed in the same apartment complex. It was a three story building with the McCann staying in the ground floor room, 5A. Madeleine slept in the bed nearest to the window while her two year old twin siblings slept in travelling cots.

In May 3, 2007 at approximately 8.30pm Madeleine and her younger siblings were put to bed. The adults left their children in the hotel and went to the resort's tapas bar 155 feet from the hotel. It was so close that every so often the adults would take turns checking on the kids.

At 9.05pm, Gerry McCann checked on the children. He noticed the door had been open wider than it had been when he left. At 9.15pm, a friend of the McCann's Matthew Oldfield checked the McCann apartment and saw the twins sleeping but didn't remember if he saw Madeline.

Madeleine's bed was next to the cottage where the twins were sleeping so there's no way he could have seen the twins without seeing her.

Also at 9.15pm, a McCann friend named Jane Turner went to check on her children and noticed a man walking with a child in his arms. At 10.00pm, an Irish family vacationing in the resort saw a man carrying a child in the beach.

Also at 10.00pm, Kate McCann went to check on her children. Madeleine was no longer in bed. Kate ran back to the tapas bar, leaving her twins in their cots and yelled "THEY'VE TAKEN MADELEINE".

There's been a very theories regarding this situation: An intruder, a driver, murdered and sold.

The first theory an intruder, Kate McCann said when she arrived at the apartment at 10pm she knew a crime had been committed because Madeleine was put to sleep with her favourite stuffed animal named Cuddlecat which had been moved out of Madeleine's reach.

She didn't think Madeleine had just wandered off without her favourite stuffed animal so she believed it was an abduction. Burglaries and robberies had increased in the area a month prior to their visit to the resort.

It was suspected that a burglar came in through the patio door in which the parents had used to check on the kids and where Madeleine was sleeping nearest to. The burglar came in to rob the place and Madeleine woke up so he took her and the man on the beach was a suspect.

It's also suspected that Madeleine may have been abducted by a gang of pedophiles. A couple years prior to her disappearance, a 10 year old girl was sexually assaulted by a pedophile gang in the same apartment complex the McCanns were staying in.

On top of that, the day prior to Madeleine's disappearance two men were seen around the resort pretending to be charity workers and going door to door to get guests to donate. They were spotted many times at the day of the disappearance between 3.30pm and 5.30pm.

Finally it's been speculated that two blonde man abducted Madeleine as there was seen at the resort and spoke in Dutch. They were staying in the room above the McCanns and were believed to be looking for a child to give to a wealthy family.

The man on the beach would have been the biggest clue. If he did take her, there could have been a fishing boat or a privately owned boat he took her onto and would have been the last anyone would have seen of Madeleine.

The second theory a driver, it was suggested that Madeleine woke up and went to find her parents. She wondered out the patio door and into the streets of the resorts there she was struck and possible abducted but her prints would have been spotted or the one of the adults would have seen her.

The third theory is murder, it was believed that Madeleine was murdered by her own parents. Firstly her Mon said they took Madeline almost like she knew something and the McCanns weren't searching for Madeleine.

They searched the apartment, tapas bar and beach and went to sleep. They didn't search until 6 the next morning. Kate reported Madeleine missing around 10pm but refused to answer the questions of authorities and was told she was damaging the case.

Kate and Gerry McCann tried suing the detective in charge of their daughter's case. The police decided to recreate the crime scene and the parents of Madeleine didn't attend despite being asked to.

Gerry claimed he didn't leave the tapas bar for 5 minutes but a friend of his claimed Kate was moaning about him being gone for a long time for a football game making his alibi weak. The Irish family which spotted a man at the beach were 80% certain that it was Gerry.

The McCanns also lied to their friends at home in the UK. They told them the window was shattered and Madeleine was taken through the window but the lawyer reported no such thing.

A couple days after the disappearance, a friend of the McCanns told the police that she witnessed Gerry and David Payne talk very sexually and make sexual gestures about Madeleine.

The day after the disappearance, an England CPS employee named Yvonne Martin offered Kate her services. Kate said Madeleine was kidnapped by a couple despite there being no evidence.

Yvonne was present at the resort as she was vacationing. She was speaking to the family when David Payne whispered in Gerry's war and to her surprise her services were no longer needed and she filed a report to have the family investigated.

She claimed that David was wearing the same clothes as the man from the beach. A fund of donations was set up to help find Madeleine and the family used it to pay their mortgage.

On May 29th, weeks after Madeleine's disappearance her parents left their other two children in the apartment where she was kidnapped with a nanny as they traveled to Europe for a tour.

During that tour, Kate described Madeleine in the past tense almost as if she's dead despite there being no evidence and kept her favourite doll as it contained her scent.

17 days before police brought canines to the crime scene. Kate washed the doll further destroying evidence that could lead them to the culprit and tarnished her alibi.

The police had one dog which detected blood on Madeline's toys, behind the apartment couch, the patio door, the wardrobe, the rental car key and the car itself.

The cadaver found the scent of death in the wardrobe, the patio, behind the couch, the steps leading down the patio, the bedroom, the back garden, two pieces of Kate's clothing and one of Madeleine's T-shirt and even the doll.

And out of every car in the parking garage, the dogs only alerted one which was the McCann's rental car. They found a scent of blood and death on the trunk.

There's a theory that Madeleine was a pawn to her parents for trafficking. In her mother's book she talks about her genitals. In a deleted video, her father is her twirl and do all kinds of stuff saying Ahh yes and smile for daddy.

Her parents were told not to share photos of her daughter to the media as it will show her eye deformity therefore scary the kidnappers to kill her. Gerry was caught saying this would be a good marketing ploy.

A famous chef named Sir Clement Freud lived close to the resort. It wouldn't be a big deal if he wasn't a pedophile. Two months after Madeleine's disappearance, her parents were invited to his house and were invited again but couldn't attend as they were suspects.

Sum it up: her parents are believed to be prime suspects in her disappearance out of all the goons that surrounded that resort. It was theorized that they planned her disappearance and her possible death wasn't part of the plan.

What Really Happened To VH1 Classic On DStv And Where Is It Now?

The popular music brand VH1 Classic started out mainly consisting of niche genres which didn't appease the masses at the time which led to its downfall on DStv and the switch to VH1 Classic.

At the time this channel was still around, they were plenty of channels offering international hits mainly modern day music before localising their offering which welcomed a new rail of viewers while others resorted to other means like streaming to cater for their tastes.

In all those eras, VH1 Classic stood out from the rest with their selection of international classic hits while Mzansi Music dealt with the local spectrum.

It wasn't until 2019 that ViacomCBS announced the discontinuation of VH1 Classic and the launch of the European MTV Music24 which therefore killed all their classical tunes for more modernizing.

It wasn't until that period that most channels which had a stack of international hits reduced the lineup for more localised tunes therefore boosting the value of MTV Music24 which doesn't cater for that region as it adapting to a European feed.

MTV Music24 wasn't all rainbows and sunshine aside from not carrying any fragment of VH1 Classic. The offering was very repetitive and they'd repeat the same music in the same order it was arranged and this continued on until last year where it was replaced with the pop based brand MTV Hits.

When VH1 Classic was terminated people pointed the finger toward DStv and when MTV Hits dethroned MTV Music24 there was a lot of silence in the switch as well as the reception. What some don't realise was that there was more to the story.

Tracing back to VH1 Classic, the channel was handled by Europe which used it as an entertainment channel to repeat programs from MTV. Africa got a different feed for some apparent reason.

In 2016, the owners of VH1 being announced that VH1 Classic would rebrand to MTV Classic as it was suspected that VH1 was being terminated internationally seeing that it was a property of MTV. Of course, this switch wasn't applicable to viewers in South Africa.

VH1 Classic was initially discontinued in 2016 so the feed in South Africa was just on autopilot for the past 3 years as they tried sourcing out the major reject MTV Music24.

MTV Music24 vanished two years later and if you google the channel. It appears that the brand was phased out likely as part of the initiative for MTV Global formerly MTV Europe which is limiting the localised feeds probably due to the launch of Paramount+.

Disney plans to close 100 international channels in the near future following the successful launch of their streaming service Disney+. It had been speculated that other companies will likely follow at a given time.

About VH1 Classic, the channel is currently known as MTV Classic I presume the reason it wasn't picked up in Africa was that ViacomCBS was looking for something that appease the current masses and anything like MTV Classic didn't fit that description.

MTV Classic has become a dumpster fire with its stack of repeats pulling 16000 viewers a month in a market with a large amount of pay-tv households. ViacomCBS no longer shares details about the viewership and I wouldn't be shocked if the channel was discontinued with nothing left in place.
