"People en Español" (People in Spanish) is a Spanish-language magazine published by Time Inc.(a division of Time Warner) that debuted in 1996, originally as the Spanish-language edition of its publication "People". As of 2007, it is the Spanish-language magazine of largest readership in the United States, reaching 5.9 million readers with each issue. [http://www.echo-media.com/MediaDetail.asp?IDNumber=11357 "People en Español"] , Echo Media] Distinguishing itself from its English-language counterpart, "People en Español"'s original editorial content combines coverage from the Hispanic and general world of entertainment, articles on fashion and beauty, and human interest stories.

History

Time Inc., launched the Spanish-language edition of People Magazine in 1996. The company has said in "The New York Times" that the new publication emerged after a 1995 issue of the original magazine was distributed with two distinct covers, one featuring the slain Tejano singer Selena and the other featuring the hit television series "Friends"; the Selena cover sold out while the other did not.

Though the original idea was that Spanish-language translations of articles from the English magazine would comprise half the content of the newer publication, "People en Español" over time came to have a mix of 90% original content and 10% translated material perceived by editors to have inter-cultural importance. [http://www.medialifemagazine.com/news1999/dec99/news31220.html "At "People", learning to speak Spanish wasn't so easy,"] "Media Life Magazine", December 1999]

Because the readership comprises Spanish-speakers of diverse backgrounds, the editorial staff goes to great lengths to use as neutral a variety of Spanish as possible. Staff member Betty Cortina told "The Washington Post" in 1996, "We police each other as we edit, making sure that we maintain a high-level, slang-free Spanish. We're trying to bust the myth that everyone wants a different kind of Spanish."

The magazine has received a number of accolades, including being named one of the "Most Notable Magazine Launches of the Past 20 Years" by Media Industry News - MIN [ [http://www.circman.com/viewmedia.asp?prmMID=1795&prmID=121 The Hottest Magazine Launches: "People en Español"] , "min", 2006] .

Exclusives

The magazine has been known to break world exclusives pertaining to Hispanic celebrities.

Puerto Rican actress Adamari Lopez gave the magazine a world exclusive for their May 2006 issue, speaking for the first time since her breast cancer diagnosis kept her away from the media. Lopez shared with the magazine's editors the details of battling her illness and her relationship with the popular singer Luis Fonsi.

In an exclusive interview in the March 2007 issue, Mexican soap opera legend Veronica Castro, spoke about her estranged son, singer Cristian Castro, and the real reason for the animosity with daughter-in-law, Valeria Liberman. The actress also discussed her disappointment when Cristian Castro caused quite a media stir after his reconciliation with his father, comic Manuel Valdés.

In late August, the magazine revealed that Cristian Castro had separated from his second wife. An exclusive interview was published in the October 2007 issue (on sale 9/3/07) with a cover line quoting "Quiero Ser Libre (I Want to Be Free)." [ [http://www.peopleenespanol.com/pespanol/packages/0,22513,1656548,00.html PeopleEnEspanol.com - Cristian Castro] ] Despite personally speaking to the magazine, Castro later denied what he said in the interview and hiding the divorce suit he presented in Miami. Castro emphasized that he will always lie to the press about his personal life. "I don't want the press to know about my personal life. I'm not here to share it; I'm here to sing. I will always lie to the press. Always expect lies about my personal life." He has since admitted to filing for divorce, but withdrew papers the next day.
