“To celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month is to recognize the rich
and diverse culture of the Latino community in the United States,”
said Dineen Garcia, Macy’s vice president of Diversity Strategies.
“Macy’s is proud to be a part of this celebration with special
in-store events from coast-to-coast, where we honor and recognize
the achievements and contributions Hispanics have made to our
nation in all aspects of society.”
Jencarlos Canela is an international, platinum-selling recording
artist, songwriter and television actor. Canela most recently
appeared in the lead role of ‘Jesus Christ’ in “The Passion” on
FOX. He starred as heartthrob, ‘Xavier Castillo’ in the
high-profile comedy series “Telenovela,” opposite Eva Longoria. On
the music front, Canela recently finished his latest Spanish single
“Pa Que Me Invitan” to be released later this fall and is currently
in the studio working on his English-language album debut for
Republic Records.
“I am grateful to Macy's for giving me a chance to celebrate
with my people and for bringing us together,” Canela said.
“Hispanic Heritage Month is a tribute to our diversity, unity, rich
cultures, our passion, our strive for excellence that makes us who
we are all across the board from the arts, sports, medicine, and
science. Proud to be 100 percent American and 100 percent Latino.
There are no obstacles, just opportunities!”
