It's one thing to host the GRAMMYs; it's another to get a namesake song at the ceremony. Then, it's entirely another to have Chaka Khan, Bonnie Raitt, Sheila E., Shawn Colvin, and Meshell Ndegeocello jam on it.

"Hello, Madison Square Garden! Hello, TV audience! Hey, Billy Bob Thornton!" host Ellen DeGeneres crows in front of the band while they vamp on a funky groove. "It's so good to be hosting for a second year!"

After being helped up the stairs by both her husband/manager Pedro Knight and presenter Justin Timberlake, Cruz offered smiles and gratitude to the audience. "Ladies and gentleman, excuse my English, because it's not very good-looking. But I want to say thank you to all of you," the Cuban superstar said with a smile, offering one of her famous sayings.

After someone in the audience shouted her most famous catchphrase, "¡Azucar!" (or "sugar"), she finished her speech with a triumphant "¡Azucar! I love you!" back to the crowd.

La Negra Tiene Tumbao was also nominated for Album Of The Year and Record Of The Year at the 2002 Latin GRAMMYs; the album's title track got a nod for Best Short Form Music Video, to. The 2001 LP—her 59th album!—also won Best Salsa Album at the subsequent 2003 GRAMMYs.
