Volando Vengo, a Spanish audiovisual production company, convened more than 120 people male and female with diverse sexual orientations, in Madrid Spain to change, through the rhythm of a rumba song, the idea that symbolizes “National Pride“. More than 120 people have worked voluntarily as part of the artistic and technical team for this video clip. A supportive project that allocates part of its benefits to HIV prevention programs.
The participants range from the ages of 4 to 80, as well as being different races and nationalities. The clip embraces men and women who are heterosexual, homosexual, transsexual and transgender, who came together to celebrate, transform and universalize the concept of “Pride“. The song and clip will have universal and free distribution and will be translated into more than 20 languages.
The movement can be followed in Twitter, on its personal channel in YouTube, social networks like Facebook and Tuenti and other areas in internet.

The Production Company also invites people from all over the world to support them by participating in the “National Pride Movement” they have made a calling for people to record their own videos and to upload it to YouTube. Anything goes; they can be homemade or professional videos, parodies or free adaptations. All to demonstrate that; We are Millions of voices.
So come on and participate in the movement!!
The National Pride lyrics are about love and personal independence, reminding us that when LGTB people’s rights are as equal as Human Rights there will be no need for flags or labels… Rut Suso, the author and the brain behind the song and video clip explains:
“the song simply talks about loving and existing and being proud of being yourself”
“We wish that music could change the world, we hope that this song really can be a launch pad for many people to express their beliefs, give their opinions and be able to say out loud what is going on in the world”.
I have been a follower of this show since it started. There have been times that it’s disappointing. My main pet peeve doesn’t have to do with the production or the contestants that are chosen. It is the fact that the music that is chosen doesn’t seem the best for the Latin dances: Salsa, Samba, Rumba, Paso Doble.
Coming from a Latin country, I’m fully aware of the music that should accompany these styles of dance. Yet, I stay and watch the show.
Last night, the selection for the rumba was perfect and couple that to the flawless renditions of Rumer and Val, it made for a beautiful dance.
Rumer Willis & Val Chmerkovskiy Get Perfect Score For Rumba on DWTS
Rumer Willis and Val Chmerkovskiy definitely impressed the judges on Dancing With The Stars on Monday night (May 4, 2015).
Team ValenRue scored a perfect 40 from the judges for their Rumba to “Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps” by Doris Day for America’s Choice.
Even judge Len Goodman gave them a 10 for keeping it simple!
Rumer Willis and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy nabbed the very first perfect score of this season on Monday’s “Dancing With The Stars” after dancing a flawless rumba to the song “Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps” by Doris Day on America’s Choice Night.
Julianne Hough told the pair after their first dance, “This was the Rumer and Val we met at the beginning. I’m so passionate about the way that you dance.” She went on to say, “That was the best dance I think you’ve done.”
Len Goodman noted it was “simple” and “beautiful,” adding, “It’s great … fantastic!” Carrie Ann Inaba gushed, “That was incredible. It was sheer perfection.”
And Bruno Tonioli exclaimed, “It was a pitch perfect, refined, high-class rumba.”
Rumer Willis & Valentin Chmerkovskiy dance the Rumba to Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps (Quizas, Quizas, Quizas) by Doris Day on Dancing With the Stars’ America’s Choice + Trios Night, and it earned them the first perfect score of the season.
Dancing With the Stars Season 20: Michael Sam and Peta Murgatroyd’s Week 4 Rumba
Dancing With the Stars Season 20, Week 4 was Most Memorable Year week, and Michael Sam and Peta Murgatroyd moved us to tears with a Rumba about Michael coming out to his father.
~April 6, 2015~
In the video package, Sam explained that when he was young, his brother was killed, and his dad left. He and his dad reconciled when Sam was in college, but then when Sam came out, it cost him his relationship with his father. His dad even told the New York Times he was ashamed his son was gay and didn’t want his grandkids raised in “that kind of environment,” which is horrible. Sam called him, told him he lost another son, and has not spoken to him since. That’s what this dance is about.
The song they chose is “Not My Father’s Son” from the musical “Kinky Boots,” which could not be more perfect. This is also Sam’s best dance to date. He’s elegant, strong, and gets a lot of emotion across. A huge improvement from last week.

Julianne called it beautiful, with good hip movement. “That was awesome, well done.” Bruno was in tears. Bruno said Sam should be proud of himself for taking a stand, and this was his best dancing yet.
Carrie Ann said dance is more than movement, and he was “truly dancing your soul for us.” Len said last week Michael may have been in a tunnel, but this week he came out and was in the light.
