It’s a unique experience, as it’s the first time that it’ll be produced in the U.S. with Univision. A total of 300 people will be working the event directly, but the whole company is helping for this telethon to collect the maximum amount of dollars going to handicap children” Fernandez expressed. He emphasized that this is the first time so many famed talents like Don Francisco, Lucero and Jorge Ramos will share the stage to present a show. The executive also mentioned that Emilio Estefan produced the theme song for TeletónUSA, which will kick off the transmission. “The song is brilliantly produced by Emilio Estefan and interpreted by Lucero, Reik, el Cata y Gloria Estefan. They are three very emotional minutes”.
