Gloria Estefan runs a party for a lost couple in 'Hotel Nacional' music video
The Queen of Latin Pop, Gloria Estefan premiered via E! Online the music video in support of her latest single "Hotel Nacional" which features actress Susan Lucci. The clip follows the story of a young couple in trouble, which seeks shelter from the storm into an old building. Inside a big party just kicks off and they join the crowd when the band led by Gloria provide anthem for the night, as it's time for "Hoochie Hoochie" she sings.
The Cuban-born singer told Billboard on the day she took the runway at the Heart Truth's Red Dress show in NYC : "For the video, I wore an Alexander McQueen ring." "It made me bleed and I had to suck my own blood... so it was very helpful for the video! It's a big skull, and I love it, but when I was dancing and moving my hands around I really did a number on the rest of my hand."
Coming out via E! Online, the music video is directed by "High School Musical" and "This Is It" helmer Kenny Ortega and was shot in Miami and also features Gloria's daughter Emily wailing on the drums!
