Roku is launching Espacio Latino, a free streaming hub for Hispanic programming, on the Roku Channel.
With more than 61 million active accounts as of March 31, Roku is a leading gateway for streaming, and one of its most popular offerings is the Roku Channel, a mix of free and paid on-demand and linear services with reach to some 80 million households. The Roku Channel operates in the U.S., UK and Canada but the Espacio Latino initiative is launching in the U.S. only.
Companies like TelevisaUnivision and Telemundo have noted in mobilizing streaming ventures recently that the Hispanic audience is underserved. Espacio Latino will aggregate thousands of movie, series and telenovela titles as well as family entertainment and news.
In an interview with Deadline, Roku execs said they decided to create the new hub after noticing that nearly 70 of Spanish-language viewing households watching The Roku Channel do not have pay TV...

Aside from his telenovelas, Cuban-American actor William Levy may be best known for his smooth moves on "Dancing With The Stars." But now, the 32-year-old hunk has another title to hang his hat on -- People en Espanol's 2012 "Sexiest Man Alive."
While Levy was snubbed for the English-language publication's most recent "Sexiest Man Alive" list -- Bradley Cooper took top honors -- the Spanish-language version ranked Levy as "El hombre más sexy" for the second year in a row, ahead of the likes of David Zepeda, Fernando Colunga and Fabián Ríos this week.
A shirtless Levy is featured on the September cover showing off his signature smile. But his stunningly good looks are not all the "Single Ladies" star has to offer. In an exclusive interview with People en Espanol, Elizabeth Gutierrez, Levy's significant other and mother of his two children, explained how he often helps around the house.

William Levy has been breaking hearts all season on "Dancing With the Stars," going from obscure telenovela star to Latin heartthrob in just a few short weeks. But now an aspiring actress is telling In Touch that Levy has a penchant for sex tapes.
Grace Roubidoux, 25, claims that she recently met Levy at Kate Mantilni in Beverly Hills, where Grace works as a hostess.
"We were talking and he started showing me videos of him having sex with other women on his phone. He asked me if I was interested in doing the same. He tried to get me to do a sex tape," says Roubidoux.
When Roubidoux laughed it off, she claims Levy persisted in pursuing her anyway and they did wind up in bed together. She says he's a "sensitive" and "affectionate" partner - "the epitome of a Casanova."
