00:06
Hi guys. Welcome back to Mitu Daily.
00:08
I'm Jenny. I'm Alejandro.
00:10
And we got an action packed episode for you guys today.
00:13
We do honestly the stories I'm excited to cover.
00:17
wait, wait before we get into it though.
00:18
If you guys sick of looking at this face,
00:22
luckily for you, you can listen to us where we get
00:25
your podcast at. Well,
00:27
you can watch, listen,
00:29
it don't matter really but keep up wherever your heart desires.
00:33
Exactly. But now let's get into a show.
00:36
Eugenio Derbez has apologized for his criticism of Selena Gomez's controversial performance
00:41
in Emilia Perez Deves appeared in a since deleted episode of the
00:47
A Blando de Cine podcast and described Gomez's Spanish speaking abilities as
00:53
indefensible, indefensible. I saw them when he said indefensibly.
00:59
That's like, that's a very strong,
01:03
it's a strong word to use in Spanish.
01:06
especially by a big time actor,
01:08
Mexican actor like him,
01:11
I grew up watching all his movies,
01:12
all his shows. So if I was an actress and to
01:16
get a critique like that for my role,
01:20
that's that bad that would hurt when he pulled out the indefensible
01:24
I knew he men business.
01:25
He wasn't messing around.
01:28
There you go. The issue was with Selena's Spanish accent with
01:32
their best stating she doesn't understand what she's saying.
01:37
Doesn't sound good. Yikes.
01:38
Well, Selena Gomez respectfully clapped back though.
01:42
In the comments section.
01:43
She put, I understand where you are coming from.
01:46
I'm sorry, I did the best I could with the time
01:49
I was given, it doesn't take away from how much work
01:52
and heart I put into this movie.
01:54
That's true. That's what she said.
01:55
Hours later, Debe shared an apology on tiktok and he said
01:59
dear Selena, I truly apologize for my careless comments.
02:02
They are indefensible. There's indefensible that word again and go against
02:06
everything I stand for as Latinos.
02:08
We should always support one another.
02:10
There's no excuse I was wrong and I deeply admire your career
02:13
and your heart and Mia Perez deserves to be celebrated,
02:17
not diminished by my thoughtless remarks.
02:19
I'm walking away from this with an important lesson learned while understand
02:22
if you cannot accept my apology,
02:23
please know it comes from the heart like it's good to have
02:27
an opinion, but I feel like I don't think it was
02:30
right to put it out there on a podcast,
02:33
kind of like grilling her in a way.
02:36
It sounds a little much definitely.
02:38
I mean, there's a lot of comments actually that agree with
02:40
you where we see when you want to throw out constructive criticism
02:45
to somebody. But this one kind of made it maybe more
02:47
private. It's OK to have an opinion but to be public
02:51
about it like that as a big well known actor.
02:55
It's Pobre, I think that's a lot,
02:58
but it's nice. He apologized and then yeah,
03:01
I mean, Selena knows she gets it.
03:05
The nominations are out for the 2025 Golden Globes and this year
03:08
several Latinos got noms.
03:09
Selena Gomez received two nominations,
03:13
one for best actress in a TV comedy for her role in
03:17
only murders in the building.
03:19
That yeah, it's a good one but she's great in it
03:21
And another for best supporting actress in a motion picture for
03:26
her role in Emilia Perez where there's a lot of controversy with
03:30
that. We know this where she,
03:33
there's the nomination with Zoe Saldana and then Lisa Colona earned her
03:38
first nomination for her role in the Bear in the category of
03:41
best appoint actress in television.
03:43
Yeah, dude, she holds that kitchen down.
03:44
She really does. I honestly,
03:48
I love her as an actress so good.
03:50
And Diego Luna was nominated for best supporting actor in television for
03:55
his role in La Maquina.
03:56
And I love Diego Luna.
03:57
That's, you know me,
04:00
that's literally the Senor.
04:02
That's your, that's my crush.
04:08
Sofia Vergara also got a nomination for Griselda and Colman Domingo first
04:14
seeing sing and I love him.
04:16
He's so cool. And you know,
04:18
but what's interesting is this next one?
04:20
So Netflix is Emile Pere,
04:22
which has come up a lot right now,
04:24
received 10 nominations, the most of any movie.
04:27
But again, the reason I say it's interesting is because again
04:29
we keep hearing so many like mixed reviews.
04:32
There we go. That's what it is.
04:33
I haven't seen it so I can't have an opinion about it
04:36
I got to catch up again,
04:37
10 nominations and everyone's has mixed reactions.
04:41
So I because I think,
04:43
you know, obviously he got nominated for a reason.
04:46
So it would be funny to see if again all this chatter
04:49
there's a lot of noise and then ultimately the Golden Globe will
04:51
go to them and then they're like,
04:52
they're chilling. Yeah.
04:54
No, it's going to be really,
04:55
really interesting this Golden Globes ceremony.
04:58
So a PAA good luck to everyone.
05:02
The Disney Fact community is in mourning Dominique Brown who was known
05:05
for her love for Disney and its theme parts on her personal
05:07
page and the black girl Disney account on Instagram has died.
05:10
She was 34. The influencer died after reportedly experiencing an allergic
05:16
reaction at a holiday event hosted by box lunch in Los Angeles
05:20
Box lunch released a statement saying our hearts go out to
05:22
her family and friends and we will do everything we can to
05:25
support them. And the members of the box lunch collective and
05:28
our team during this painful time.
05:30
I mean, the older I get,
05:32
like, how sad is it that you can't fully trust anyone
05:36
like, with your food?
05:37
Especially when you have,
05:38
like, severe allergies.
05:40
Like, because I heard that she had asked the person that
05:44
I think it was a passing hors d'oeuvres or,
05:46
I don't know what it was.
05:48
I'm not exactly sure what was in,
05:50
it had a certain ingredient that she was allergic to.
05:53
So she had asked them and they reassured her like,
05:56
no, it doesn't have that and it did have that.
06:01
No. Yeah, it's crazy because like you said,
06:03
you can ask but sometimes people don't really,
06:06
they don't know, they don't really see a big deal.
06:10
They'll just break out in hives.
06:12
You know what I mean?
06:16
it could be super severe like this.
06:18
They like it can be like that and it has to be
06:21
taken like that. She was technically working,
06:23
right? She's an influencer.
06:26
And supposedly she was collaborating with Box Lunch and Disney.
06:29
Yeah. It's crazy like that,
06:31
you know, something like this can happen.
06:34
I just hope that her family is compensated well.
06:37
And again, they actually take more seriously because this was again
06:40
an event thrown by box lunch that many other people have attended
06:45
And so this can't just be a normal thing that happens
06:49
Definitely fatal shooting suspect.
06:51
Luigi Mangione. Luigi Mangion has been caught and the internet is
06:57
losing it. An ex Iy League student.
07:03
That's crazy. It's hard to see a red flag except like
07:08
he murdered someone and he's being charged for murder.
07:13
you sound distracted. I,
07:17
he's hot. You know what's crazy?
07:19
It's so crazy. The thirst,
07:22
the thirst on social media.
07:25
Like I am concerned,
07:27
I am so concerned because it's like we're painting this guy as
07:31
like a celebrity. They did that with Gypsy Rose.
07:36
they did that with what's that other?
07:41
Yes. And so here we are again.
07:44
But you know, I'm concerned and I'll tell you why because
07:47
OK, like what makes you think that other dudes or women
07:53
are not gonna wanna kill for the limelight for the clown,
07:57
right? I'm not saying that's what he did.
07:59
But I'm saying like like they see that oh my God,
08:02
all this praise, you know,
08:04
and that is a strong possibility and I don't condone murders,
08:07
but I do condone hot people and there should be more hot
08:09
people on this planet.
08:11
I'm sorry. But there's been a huge lack of it.
08:13
Even people knew he was hot even before the sh the showing
08:16
of the face that just do the hoodie picture with the,
08:19
with the smile, perfect teeth,
08:22
perfect. Just the perfect chiseled chin,
08:24
the eyebrow. Then we young cover the mug shot and everything
08:27
that's come out. The eyebrows,
08:30
the abs. Have you seen the abs?
08:32
It's like they look the abs.
08:35
You can wash clothes on his abs.
08:37
Yeah. And I heard that Luigi struggled with like chronic back
08:41
pain. I hope they get him a masseuse in jail,
08:47
in jail. I volunteer at Tribute.
08:51
Who else got praised back in the day,
08:53
the night Stalker got praised.
08:55
All the girls were like loving him.
08:58
He had a fan base who was the guy that killed and
09:03
do hot too. And this was happening.
09:06
Listen, OK. I don't want,
09:09
I'm sorry, they're gonna come back and they're gonna say J
09:12
is fucked up. Gen Z like ruined.
09:14
They think this guy is hot,
09:16
Don't even come with me with that because you guys thought Jeffrey
09:20
Dahmer was hot. I can pull up the magazine pictures right
09:23
here right now. This is history.
09:25
This is just history repeating itself bad.
09:27
That guy you know off you know on alive someone.
09:31
He's hot, we thirst,
09:34
We are lacking. I think you,
09:35
I think you guys are just talking about the facts.
09:37
OK? Look, the fact is he did kill a very
09:41
important man. That's a fact.
09:44
He's hot. That's another fact.
09:47
So let's talk about because come on the movies already been
09:52
written. Yeah. Oh They,
09:55
this is fast, this is moving fast.
09:58
Hollywood has random out of ideas on what movies to make.
10:03
So, something like this,
10:06
should play. The plot is thick.
10:08
Who's Franco? The eyebrows?
10:14
Absolutely. Press Dave Franco red carpets.
10:21
I would love to audition for the role of Side Chick.
10:24
I would know the girl who flirted with him before because,
10:28
you know, that's how he got the cash.
10:31
So the cashier was flirting with him right before he went and
10:34
did his thing. And before yeah,
10:37
that's the reason they got the picture of him,
10:39
the infamous smile all because a girl was just the cashier shooting
10:44
her shot and you know what?
10:46
I don't blame her shooting her.
10:49
Oh wait, that's bad.
10:50
That's well, I think we should cut this off.
10:55
Yeah, this story will get me canceled.
10:57
Well, we should see as it unravels.
11:00
no bail. Sorry girls.
11:06
What's up me through family?
11:08
We are experiencing Disney's Mufasa today.
11:11
Not only am I talking to the cast of the movie?
11:15
We are experiencing the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
11:21
I literally just got down from the zip line.
11:24
It was crazy. And yes,
11:25
those are rhinos to my left shoulder and giraffe somewhere behind me
11:30
This is one you don't want to.
11:36
We're going on an adventure to San Diego and I'm so excited
11:42
I cannot wait for what's about to go down,
11:45
call for Hotel. T I see Lin Manuel Miranda and Barry
12:11
Jenkins. And fun fact,
12:13
you guys, if it weren't for Lin Manuel Miranda,
12:15
I wouldn't be here today.
12:17
He's the reason I'm a theater kid.
12:19
So this is very full circle.
12:20
You know what else is full circle.
12:23
the Lion King, except this is for Mufasa before Lion King
12:28
We're talking context.
12:29
We're talking humble beginnings,
12:31
crazy plots really worth the watch.
12:37
I'm Daniela Salazar with me.
12:46
Mufasa touches on themes of family legacy,
12:49
resilience, values that I think are deeply embedded in so many
12:53
cultures, but deeply speak to the Latino community.
12:56
How did you approach these themes in a way that would also
13:00
be universal to all communities?
13:02
When you really talk about the Lion King,
13:04
it's really easy to think.
13:05
Oh, it's about royalty.
13:06
It's about king this and that.
13:08
It's really about family.
13:09
Everyone can relate to that idea of,
13:11
I've got this brother and I love him,
13:14
but we're starting to grow apart.
13:15
It's truly universal. Lynn.
13:17
Your music has never failed to bring on the Sasson savor.
13:23
How did you infuse Mufasa's journey with some of that rhythm and
13:27
energy through the music that you worked on?
13:29
Disney's kind of been my passport around the world when I,
13:32
when I write for the theater,
13:34
it's always New York.
13:35
It's Washington Heights, it's Hamilton,
13:36
it's Warriors. And for this,
13:38
we, we got to just really explore all this incredible
13:42
African rhythms and African harmonies.
13:44
I insisted on working with Lebo M who is the first voice
13:47
you hear in that original film.
13:48
And what he brings to the Lion King universe really is
13:52
is, is why it's so sticky and why it feels
13:56
both so specific and so universal,
13:58
but it was all there on the script and that is such
14:01
a blessing as an actor approaching a script when you don't have
14:06
to search beyond the words themselves.
14:09
And I think that really gave us a lot of confidence.
14:11
It gave us a lot of support for the discovery of these
14:14
characters. Mufasa is actually a very serious,
14:18
intense story. You know,
14:19
you're dealing with a lot of serious themes about family and fathers
14:22
and their Children. And you know,
14:24
there's a lot of intense stuff going on.
14:26
You play the role of Ot Mo.
14:28
And I really, I have to say as a Latina,
14:30
your character really reminds me of that one uncle,
14:32
that one, the that one uncle really made me laugh.
14:35
He always comes in with the commentary,
14:37
the witty comments, especially in this movie.
14:39
There's a lot of action sequences and then it's nice to be
14:43
able to come in and try to make people laugh.
14:51
I'm a little nervous but I'm excited.
14:58
I'm crying internally. I can't think right now it's shaking.
15:04
I love you. Meet your family.
15:09
Yeah, I feel really good.
15:11
Yeah. No, really good.
15:12
Oh, there's a little net back here.
15:15
yeah, I can even sit.
15:16
This is Miss from the what happened?
16:04
We don't. That last part was a Marco.
16:17
How are you? I'm well,
16:18
thank you for coming to the safari park.
16:20
Of course, it's a beautiful day out here.
16:22
So please tell me what should families expect once arriving to the
16:27
safari park, what are they going to find?
16:28
We offer unique experiences every single day.
16:32
Gad is mu safari and this is what it's about.
16:35
It's about community. We're a global conservation organization doing work all
16:39
over the world, but it's really all the people being part
16:42
of these conservation efforts.
16:43
Collaboration is key. It takes a community,
16:47
a global community to really make a difference.
16:52
We are going on a safari.
16:54
This is really cool.
16:55
I feel like a lion might walk by who they're kind of
16:57
fighting. Do you see that?
16:59
Oh, look, it's a couple of boy rhinos playing.
17:02
Oh I thought they were fighting.
17:03
They kind of look like they're fighting but they're playing,
17:06
they're playing. I feel like Indiana Jones,
17:09
the Latina version, Daniela Jones.
17:12
Perfect. Looks like you're holding the giraffe.
17:15
He's coming in tight.
17:17
Nice. Throughout this film.
17:18
This journey to Malele kind of becomes this journey about overcoming challenges
17:24
A reality. Is there Malele that you all have personally in
17:27
your life? My Malele is wherever my loved ones are my
17:30
Malele last night. Was watching Love is blind as much traveling
17:34
as we do for work and everything else.
17:36
Like whenever I go home to L A and I'm with my
17:39
chosen family, there gives a comfort that I can't explain.
17:43
So that's my way for me.
17:44
Well, I'm in show business.
17:45
So there's a lot of that.
17:47
I went to film school,
17:48
Mi mi mi years ago and met so many people I still
17:52
work with to this day.
17:53
As soon as you asked that question,
17:55
I thought about opening night of In The Heights on Broadway in
17:58
2008 because that was the first day I could actually say I'm
18:03
doing what I love for a living as opposed to doing 50
18:06
other jobs and doing what I love on the side or in
18:09
any spare hour. I don't think I'll ever make a
18:12
leap that big again from like substitute teacher to Broad composer for
18:18
me. It felt like a real pride rock moment when the
18:20
thing that had been existing in my head for so long finally
18:22
existed in the world.
18:23
I felt like that was my malele.
18:25
I just spoke with Elaine Manuel Miranda.
18:29
Oh, wow. The most special guest I've ever been able
18:40
to see from afar is standing right behind me.
18:47
All right, he literally turned his back,
18:48
but I'm not going to take that personally.
18:50
I'm a huge fan still forever be is a diva that is
18:55
a well deserved Diba.
19:00
he really didn't like that.
19:01
I called him a diva be,
19:02
it wasn't personal and just like that our day is up here
19:16
at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
19:19
We got to live the full Mufasa experience.
19:22
That's for sure. Be sure to watch Disney's Mufasa out December
19:26
20th. You're not gonna wanna miss this one.
