Pigs be damned! Some of this year’s Cinco de Mayo celebrations may have been curtailed or cancelled due to the swine flu pandemic but we know the best Mexican fiestas are stay-at-home occasions. Yes, it’s a shame Los Temerarios were forced to cancel their performance at NYC’s grand festival because of el flu del chancho but on a positive note Vicente Fernandez is a) still alive (who knew?) and b) debuting a new song (“Necesito de ti”) on May 5th! So grab your favorite Latino wannabe and enjoy our Guide to Cinco de Mayo.

4.I have huge crush on Salma Hayek like “get a restraining order” huge.
5.Please don't tell Salma.
