I had the distinct privilege of seeing Ms. Rivera and Gwen Vernon in the original production of Chicago on Broadway. Remarkably it was a school trip when I was in junior high school. I was mesmerized watching those two legends. I feel blessed that I got to see them and I still can picture them on the stage.

Dear Jennifer Lopez. You don't or will have the extraordinary talent that of Chita. She is the standard of what it means to be a triple threat (singer, dancer and actor). I hope young Latina's are reading this. You don't have to be half naked or sleep with every guy or have everyone know your business to be famous.
