This month, a very talented singer will offer us the opportunity to listen to her music in a very special tour that will take place at various events and clubs in South Florida. Of course, Latino Boys and Hotspots scheduled some time to speak to Marger, a very special Venezuelan woman. While we asked her the questions for this interview, we understood that what made her such a beautiful person is not just her physical appearance, it was also her incredibly good heart and outpour of sentiments that she carries inside of her. These are what she applies to her music and its what drives her to support our gay community.

When and how did you start singing?
I started singing at a very early age. I would imitate American singers like Whitney Houston and Janet Jackson…I also love Donna Summer. I would write my own songs and in general, I would translate the English songs that I liked into Spanish. That’s how I first discovered that I liked to write music, and of course write poems.
Who has inpsired you to move forward with your career?
Faith and certainty that we should all fight for our dreams is what inspires me. There is no obstacle that you should succumb to until you reach the end. The love I feel for music, singing, writing songs, the stage, is my sustenance. To stop doing it is like to abandon part of who I am.
What would you like to transmit with your music or talent?
Positive messages…that people should have fun or that they can identify themselves with the stories I tell. I don’t have any major pretenses except to make those that listen to my music shake, feel, dance and be moved.
“Como Te Digo” is an album that has strong messages about relationships. How were the two first singles, “Como Te Atreves” and “Quiero Que Tu Amor Se Vaya” chosen to represent it?
“Como Te Digo” is the first album of my career and it’s a production that contains a lot of that pent up intensity. The majority of the songs are my own stories, others are of people close to me and of messages I felt were important to share. I chose “Quiero Que Tu Amor Se Vaya” as the first single because it’s one of my favorite songs. It has a catchy rhythm, but at the same time it’s a song about falling out of love, which could define the album. “Como Te Atreves” is one of the strongest ballads on the album, which shows my abilities in singing that genre.
How did it feel to sing at the NGLTF’s Miami Recognition Dinner that honors leaders of the gay community?
I felt incredibly proud to be part of this very important event. I have always supported the community and I think it’s important for people in general to develop more of an awareness of the problems that the gay community faces, among many things the ignorance that continues to bring about so many obstacles and exclusions. Fortunately, thanks to these leaders and those we collaborate with on a daily basis, there is more understanding of these problems faced by the gay community. I thank God, Joe Granda and the NGLTF for allowing me this opportunity to collaborate with my music and at the same time, motivate others to do their small part to change the world and bring about more love and NO DISCRIMINATION..
Tell us about your gay club tour.
I am very excited to be with my people and feel their energy. We will start in Miami and I will end up again in Puerto Rico, where I had already done a marvelous tour.
Any last words for your fans?
I appreciate all the love and support they have given me every day and remind them that we must keep moving forward with our hearts full of faith, a positive mind, always believing in our dreams…always looking ahead. I send them all a big kiss from the bottom of my heart.

Spanish Version Follows:
Este mes, una cantante con mucho talento nos ofrecerá la oportunidad de escuchar su música en un tour especial que efectuará en varios e-ventos y discotecas gay por todo el sur de la Florida. Latino Boys y Hotspots sacaron un mo-mento para hablar con Marger, una venezolana especial. Mientras que le hacíamos las pre-guntas, nos dimos cuenta que lo que la hace tan bella no es solo lo físico, pero también el gran corazón y derroche de sentimientos que ella lleva por dentro. Son estos que ella aplica a su música y a sus deseos de apoyar a nuestra co-munidad gay.
¿Cuándo y cómo empezaste a cantar?
Comencé a cantar a muy temprana edad. Imita-ba a las cantantes americanas como Whitney Houston, Janet Jackson y Donna Summer. Es-cribía mis propias canciones y en general, tras-ladaba al español las canciones en Inglés que me gustaban. Así comencé a descubrir que me gustaba la composición, y por supuesto no podía faltar el escribir poemas.
¿Quién te ha inspirado seguir adelante con tu carrera?
Me ha inspirado la fe y la certeza que en la vida debemos luchar por nuestros sueños. No hay mayor obstáculo que darse por vencido sin lle-gar hasta el final. El amor que siento por la músi-ca, por cantar, escribir canciones, el escenario, es mi alimento. Dejar de hacerlo es como aban-donar una parte de mí.
¿Qué quieres transmitir con tu música?
Mensajes positivos, que la gente se divierta o que también puedan sentirse identificados con las historias que cuento. No tengo mayores pretensiones más que hacer a quienes escu-chen mi música vibrar, sentir, bailar y estreme-cerse.
“Como Te Digo” es un disco que lleva un mensaje bastante fuerte sobre relaciones. ¿Cómo escogieroncomo los primeros singles para representarlo?
“Como Te Digo,” es el primer disco de mi carre-ra y es una producción que lleva encerrado mucha intensidad. En su mayoría son historias propias, otras de personas cercanas a mí y o-tros mensajes que necesitaba transmitir. “Quiero Que Tu Amor Se Vaya” fue elegido por mí como primer sencillo, porque es una de mis canciones favoritas. Tiene un ritmo pegajoso, pero al mismo tiempo es una canción de des-amor, lo cual puede definir el disco. “Como Te Atreves” es una de las baladas más fuertes del disco, mostrando mi faceta como baladista.
¿Cómo te sentías cantar en la cena especial del NGLTF que reconoce a líderes de la co-munidad gay?
Me sentí muy orgullosa. Siempre he apoyado a la comunidad y creo que es muy importante formar a las personas en general sobre la con-ciencia y los problemas que la comunidad Gay enfrenta, sobre todo por la ignorancia que hace que aun se mantengan muchas barreras y exclusiones. Afortunadamente gracias a estos líderes y a los que colaboramos, cada día e-xiste más entendimiento de los problemas que afrenta la comunidad gay. Le doy gracias a Dios, Joe Granda y al NGLTF por permitirme colaborar con mi música y asi motivar a que más personas se unan aportar su grano de arena en el cambio del mundo hacia el amor y la NO DISCRIMINACION.
Cuéntanos sobre el tour en clubs gay.
Estoy súper emocionada por estar con mi gente y sentir su energía. Comenzaremos por Miami y volveré a Puerto Rico, en donde ya realice un tour maravilloso.
¿Qué palabras tienes para tus fans?
Agradecerles el cariño y el apoyo tan lindo que me dan todos los días y recordarles que hay que seguir adelante con el corazón lleno de fe, la mente positiva.
