Juanes Wins Big at the '08 Latin Grammy Awards

Colombian rocker Juanes was the big winner during the ninth annual Latin Grammy Awards Thursday at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. He swept all five categories in which he was nominated.

"I can't believe this,'' he said after winning Album of the Year for La Vida ... Es Un Ratico, his fourth solo album. "This is impressive.''

"Colombia - this is for you.''

Juanes also took home trophies for Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Male Pop Vocal Album and Short Form Music Video. That brings his Latin Grammy total to 17 awards, more than any other artist has ever won.

Congrats to him! I'll be posting his performance with John Legend later on, it was pure greatness.
