Gloria Estefan - Miss Little Havana

After an eight year dry spell, Gloria Estefan returns with the below Neptunes-produced flashback to 80s freestyle, complete with the genre's famously corny lyrics. Last week Estefan took some heat from activists after signing an exclusive deal with Target. Calling gay fans her "core audience," Estefan praised Target's efforts to right itself with the LGBT community.
"I know that they donated to a third party who then donated to this candidate and - I did my homework - since then they donated $150,000 to that candidate. They apologized profusely for having done so, and they have established an actual committee that oversees all political donations to make sure that this doesn't happen again. They've also donated a half-million dollars to LGBT organizations. They're part of the National Gay & Lesbian Chamber of Commerce. They give domestic partner benefits. They have 300,000 employees that are from all walks of life, and it's very important for them to be supportive. They've extended family medical leave benefits and adoption benefits to their gay employees. They've really supported very much their gay peeps."
