00:00 We are delighted and honored to have you here, the princess of Indian salsa. How are you?
00:06 Wow, I feel so happy. I can't believe it.
00:12 I want to thank you, the Telemundo family, Billboard for the years.
00:19 This is a time when I thought that what I do was not as significant as I thought it would be.
00:31 I felt that I didn't know what was going to happen.
00:35 I said, "If something happens to me, I would like to be left alive."
00:41 I have cried so much because of people like Leila Cobo, who I owe everything to.
00:49 She made this possible for me. She believed in me.
00:53 She said, "I want India to pay me a tribute."
00:59 Imagine, Leila Cobo, who is an impressive woman.
01:04 I thank her.
01:07 David Lapointe, who I adore. He is so sweet.
01:11 He also believes in our music.
01:14 He believes that music should continue to triumph.
01:19 He gives me strength.
01:21 When I'm quiet, he tells me, "Let's record, let's record, let's record."
01:27 He is my inspiration.
01:31 It's so nice that tonight you can give yourself a little of all that love that you deserve.
01:37 I think tonight is going to be very special and you will remember it.
01:40 I love that you give yourself this tribute.
01:43 I don't want to cry anymore.
01:45 When I came to rehearse, I was crying so much that everything was falling apart.
01:51 I said, "Oh my God, Lord, give me strength not to cry."
01:56 One thing we women have is that we are very emotional.
02:01 When something special happens, you can't help but cry from the emotion of gratitude.
02:11 To be here and to be given it live.
02:14 If you could tell me two women, I think we know the first one,
02:19 but two women personally and in your career who have inspired you, who would they be?
02:25 My grandmother, Gusta Guadalupe, who was a goddess who sang Latin songs.
02:30 When she sang like that, my mother, the whole family, my mother sings beautifully.
02:37 She came from there.
02:41 I thank my grandmother and other people, and my mother too.
02:46 I love it.
02:48 I'll see you in a little while when you come back with your award.
02:51 I'm so excited.
02:54 Yeah.
