News: Condoms & babies!
Time Out London interviewed Gerardo Naranjo, discussing his new film Voy a explotar (I’m Gonna Explode). Questions asked included one about Diego and Gael. 
Two of the signature Mexican actors of the moment, Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna, are executive producers on 'I'm Gonna Explode'. What was their contribution?
‘They were great godfathers, they gave us a lot of support. They talked to the two kids in the cast to encourage them. These guys, their lives are sorted already, so they really don’t have to do this. I appreciate that. But mainly, there were discussions on what kind of movie we were making, just to be sure that we got all the social and political aspects right. I wanted the movie to provoke, to start a discussion,
because I don’t think Mexico is ready for conclusions. There were endless arguments, but that’s just what you want from your collaborators.’
Did anybody think we were done with the ‘best of …’ lists yet?
Guess what: there’s one more.
The Explorer, a newspaper for the Northwest, has their list of the top 10 films of the decade out. There’re no numbers on the list but you may already have a pretty good guess what movie made it to their list.
Y Tu Mamá También made it to their list! (It was listed above The Wind Will Carry Us.)
Years ago, Diego did a condom advertisement. What’s the relevance now? Well, a copy of the advertisement is on YouTube. To check out the video, just check under the LJ cut.
Notsistema broke this news first* but was swiftly followed by ¡Ehui!* and Informador*. Latin Gossip asked the question of whether it was true and then reported that Quien had said it was true.
What’s the news? What was true!?
That Diego and Camila are expecting their second child!
Latin Gossip quoted this statement from Quien; it’s a statement from Diego confirming the news:
“Queremos confirmar a través de este comunicado que Camila
y yo estamos esperando nuestro segundo hijo. La noticia la hemos festejado muchísimo y le ha traído una gran alegría a nuestras vidas.”
Translation: We want to confirm through this release that Camila and I are expecting our second son. We’ve celebrated a lot and it has brought great happiness to our lives. (A copy of the release, longer than the one reported by Latin Gossip to have been given to Quien, can be found at Latina Room.)
Since the news broke, epa*, Planeta al día*, Hissip, El Siglo de Torreón* and Roswell Daily Record* (you have to be a member of the site to read the whole story) have reported the news (Latina Room also had a picture of Camila and Diego together). While reporting on the news, Hissip commented on Diego’s wandering eye. There was also a YouTube video put online mentioning the news (it’s in Spanish and it’s very soft).
Congratulations Diego and Camila!
