"Cantando Por Un Sueno" contestant who recorded a CD in 1997!


Hey,

In case u guys don't know this show, this is an embarrasing reality show from Mexico in which a "has been" and a "nobody" pair off in a competition in which the winner gets their dream come true. But get this...their dreams are usually health related! So their dreams are an array of life-threatening ilnesses, crippling disabilities and birth defects!! What kind of fucked up show would pair off people to compete to see if their health issues will get resolved? So the losers basically are SOL. That's an unfortunate way to play with people's emotions and I think its wrong. Its the same as if they were pitting starving people to compete for a bowl of rice!

Anyway, the point of my post is not to critique this show as it is a waste of time...but rather to point out one of my finds. Not sure if any of you watch this, but one of the "dreamers" actually recorded an album in 1997! Her name is Lorena Schlebach and she is teamed up with Alan (ex-MAGNETO) and coached by Arianna, an 80's balladeer (whom I like as well lol) popular for her biggest hit "En Mi Soledad". So in reality,, she's not a "nobody" but more so a "flop artist!"


She recorded this grupera-pop album in 1997 under the name spelling LORENNA. It's called "Contigo Es Amar" and all these songs were written by Marco Antonio Solis. IT's so funny that even though she had all these things going for her (the most obvious her good looks), she still flopped badly and never got a second chance. Now she's a contestant on this reality show, how lame! She was a runner up too in the finale (Rocio Banquells and her nobody won).

Me and my boo boo happened to notice one time when we were watching. We both knew about Lorenna cuz we're both losers who remember nobodies like this. We saw her and said "oh, she's really pretty and can sing well...WAIT A MINUTE?!..Lorenna...pretty..singer?!?!?!". And then we compared and ta-da, it WAS HER!

I took the liberty of sharing a song for you guys, in case you were curious.

In the words of Whitney Houston, "Hell to the naw!"

(hope things are going well!)

Hi. Thanks for that song, it is actually a good performance I think. I am a Marco Antoio Solis fan and I would definitely have bouht this album at that time, had I known about it. But now, I dont think I will be able to do so. Could you please share another song or two of her with me? I see there was one called Nuestro amor se fue? Some how I remember that song, was that lorenna on the radio? my mail: corneliusheinrichs@yahoo.com
