Latina Mina Drunk on 99.7

I just heard that the radio dj Latina Mina on the Super Station 99.7 was drunk on air. Supposedly there was a doctor on the program and she was hitting on him then when another radio dj told her she was embarrassing the radio station she replied by cussing on air. They then killed the broadcast. If anyone has a copy of the session we are offering money for the recording!! CASH!

Update: I just got the following in my email

You have to report about what just happened on 99.7. Mark, it was unbelievable. This latina DJ was soo drunk on air and was slurring throughout the whole show. Suddenly, a caller calls in, which is when the radio station "thinks" they were off air. The caller swears at the DJ, telling her shes making a fool of herself and that she’s a "drunk hoochie". What does this smart DJ say? Go fuck yourself, go fuck your father and your brother. This was all on air. about 15 minutes ago. the sad thing is, they thought they were off air during that since she came back on air closing the show and telling "all the haters out there" to get a life or somethin. Now, that was something you had to listen to. Wonder what will happen to her, AND 99.7!!

OH THE HUNTING PARTY IS ON!

She cussed on KUWAITI RADIO?

OH IT’S ON! IT’S ON, GOOD SIR, IT’S ON!

I’m offering 10,000 million dinars for her head, ALIVE. Yes, her head. ALIVE.

Thank you,

IT’S ON.

i honestly couldnt believe it was happening!dont they have someone who monitors such “incidents”? well, if they do, that person either let in on air on purpose, or is just not very good at censoring:)

i wanted to record it but i was sooo shocked hearing it i thought it was a joke up until the “f*** yourself” part.

the thing is, she was drunk the whole show…didnt they think of cutting her off earlier??well, anyway, we got something to talk bout:)

I could never listen to latina mina on air… she is frustrating and gives me headaches – not one… MANY!!
and where do i begin with Linda… when a song starts she needs to shut-up! oh and we ALL KNOW WE HAVE TO DRIVE CAREFULLY AND THINK OF THE CHILDREN ARGH!!!

i think 99.7 should just have a playlist and no talky talky djays who speak nothing but bull!!

serves her right for insulting me the other day …

wonder how many heads going to roll because of this …

Strangely though ,.. im surprised noticed her drunk … before she actually committed a crime.!

Most entertaining show ever! i couldn’t get out of my car! howard sternish! unfortunately all the “you know who” are going to use this incident to shut down the stations and turn them all into easy listening 92.5..

i heard it all, latina mina was absolutely drunk and i hoped that someone will call and say somthing about it, til (thanks god) one caller called and told the host that she is embarrassing herself, the broadcast station and Kuwait. But i think that Latina Mina didn’t like that at all, she called the caller with the B word followed by F word missiles..

and i just want to know why did the management or the director put her on air while they know that she is already wasted ???

I enjoyed Latina Mina in the afternoons on my drive home from work, latin music picks me up. But tonight she was obviously drunk and made a fool of herself and surely lost her job. Its sad really.But it was something different for Kuwaits, same place, same thing,same music,same routine life we have. Everyone is talking! What the heck, something different.Ease up people.

She is a nutter- I turned on the radio one day ( since Vicki left I only listen to CDs ) and thought I had entered the twilight zone and exited in Mexico. She sounds like an illiterate who has just got out of reform school.
DJ Latino no me gustas muca amiga- va a casa!!!
Get English back on the airways!!!!!!

I caught the last 15 minutes of the show, and it was friggin hilarious!
Latina Mina was drunkenly rambling and totally forgot about playing songs. She said the word ‘shit’ by mistake and tried to redeem herself by following it with ‘shizzle my nizzle’ (a phrase she repeated throughout the rest of the program – which apparently offended the caller who called later).

Latina Mina was most definitely hitting on the doctor, telling him he had good biceps…etc. Poor guy.

There was no doubt left that she was wasted when she uttered the trademark drunken line “I love you guys”, twice.

To add to it she tried to pick up a caller line (when there was noone calling). It took her a couple of seconds to realize there was nobody there.

Then came the cherry of the fiasco- the actual call. A girl calls the show telling Latina Mina the following (not an exact quote):
‘You should be ashamed of yo’self with yo’ drunk ass on Kuwaiti radio talkin in Ebonics. You drunk hoochie’

The word ‘fuck’ was thrown around (I’m unsure by whom) and then the call volume was lowered. I could hear the words ‘crack ho’ and other profanities (I think from the caller).

Latina Mina closed the show by stating that ‘there are alot of haters out there that need to get an education’.

Ahhh… that whole debacle reminds me of the good old days back in Gary, Indiana when you’d get ghetto ass callers cussing out drunken DJs and follow it with a great Christian Gospel tune. Praise Jesus!

It was MY mom !
We’d like to let people know that she did not curse.
Hoochie is not a swear word, look it up in the dictionary.
She only told the truth, after listening to her for over an hour, and her disrespectful totally unexceptable behavior did she call in.

god she deserves it, now i can listen to MUSIC and just music in the morning.

—–LATINA MINA DEPORTED—–

Lool it sounds nice.

I taught she was drunk from the start but my mom was like no its thursday she’s just happy…

Real happy she was 🙂

Heard the whole thing..i though everything was censored on the station…guess the censorship committee was partying somewhere…or they were all having a party @ the station that no one knew who was drunk!!!

Some entertainment for our weekend thou!…

She sucks anyways .. I am glad that happend coz it shows how my feelings about her was right from the beginning .. there is a lady have a show in the morning .. why dont they ask her to search for anouncers like her ? she is in kuwait now for like more than 10 years ..she is the best so far .. !

Tori, seriously, your mum called her? D=

Got to say, even though I don’t listen to 99.7 now since I’m not in Kuwait, I’m glad she’s gone, she just kept annoying me with the way she talked >.<

why I’m not surprised! I wish they kick her out!!!!!
she is the most annoying DJ EVER! and what is it with latin music EVERY day! I don’t listen to this mad lame excuse of a DJ! I’d rather shoot myself!
they better kick her out! and take me instead :p

drunk at work! how professional!
I`ve been to the super station before and “censorship” people don`t just sit there watching over every word!
she only has herself to blame if she gets fired… which is the right thing to do in the case of her apparent lack of professionalism!
when was going for work drunk acceptable ( in any part of the world)!

hahahahah. umbay, 7adna fathyeen! i actually lliked her after the UROOOOOoouuUUJJ nightmare! but then she got kind of annoying 7aram! bes kanat ittha7ikny ma3a her “from the beating heart of the city” hahahahahahah. 7aram, i feel bad!

uuh i missed all that!! I dont listen to 99.7 esp when she’s on! Mark u better play it here once u get it 😛
oo what happened to the auditions they had after uroj left?

Now thats something worth writing about in q8’s music scene!

There is a big chance they let her go on air drunk on purpose. How did she drive and get into the ministry and past the guards while drunk?

then didnt she talk to the director or the voice people ?

Didnt she at least smell like somehting?

I think they let her go on purpose, so they would kick her out or something.. maybe even have the station shut down. They would only be left with 103.7 to go … maybe another disaster is on its way to them b3d…

Seriously what good stations are there in Kuwait “WITH GOOD RECEPTION” that play nice english music ? don’t tell me VOA coz I can’t pick them up everywhere, so it’s annoying. I do like when I am on 40 road going south after Al-Ahmadi area, I can pick up Freedom radio on 107.9, not good reception but at least they play some heavy music.

Can I ask how many latinos are actually there in Kuwait ? playing that music for hours is annoying and pointless. I also get headaches from the tone of her voice, that’s why I didn’t listen to the show for more than a minute and missed all the swearing part … shame !

or maybe they put something in her drink.. so that they could come up with a decent reason to fire her.. because they cant just say “you’re annoying” yesh?

Hopefully 99.7 will realize that the Latin Theme needs 2 go! Don’t misunderstand…. I enjoy the Latin people but…….. Latin music hours on end!!! Argh!!! Latina Mina really is an embarrassment in all areas!! 99.7 Radio Kuwait needs 2 redeem themselves by letting her go!!…

Linda is the best til now, she doesn’t have taste in music but at least she is more fun and tells nice stories and news unlike the annoying Mina tequila..

but who is that boring guy with her who always talks about Indian movies and songs??

and there is the always depressed talking guy who plays hard rock music at night.. he better should commit a suicide one day because he always see things from the bad side only..

WOW! I witnessed most of this amazing fiasco.. Got in my car around 8 and turned on the radio, within 5 seconds i thought “ok, there’s something wrong with this girl tonight!” at first I thought maybe she’s been to the dentist or something, maybe on med’s.. but it didn’t take long to realize she was wasted.. and what’s worse, is that over the next 40 min’s or so, she just got worse, which makes me think she was doing shots during the song breaks or something!!! I have nothing against “Latina mina”, in fact I thought she was a nice energetic DJ, despite the fact that i couldn’t figure out why we (Kuwait listeners) needed 3 hours, 3-4 times a week of Latino music. But tonight… man, that was the twilight zone.. Yes, it was funny as hell, I was in sultan cent. listening on my phone, and couldn’t even concentrate on what i was doing ‘cuz i was laughing hysterically (yes, people around me thought i was insane), but then it got more and more embarrassing. it was a train wreck waiting to happen, and it did… And when that call came in (long overdue in my opinion), well, you heard what happened.. I mean the girl (woman) was so gone that she didn’t realize that the mic was still on.. Hey, I’m no conservative, and I’m far from judging anyone, but as an On-air personality, you have responsibilities. Hell, even Howard Stern had limits when he was on public radio. And although i agree that we in Kuwait could use as much “color” and variety to our mundane existence here, what she did would easily get her up to $1 million in fines and probably prison time in the western world. But I can’t put the blame entirely on her (yes, she has to be fired at least) but where the hell was the station manager?? the censorship supervisor? the damn engineer?? I’ve been in the superstation control room, they have an engineer booth, and a “panic button” device that’s used to delay and beep out any obscene language. obviously no one was watching that. The fact that she went on for over an hour (admittedly a hilarious one at that) without anyone intervening, just goes to show how little concern anyone has for the station.. Sadly, we may end up with an even sadder excuse for a “radio station” than we already have, with no DJ’s or live broadcasts.. I hope not… and i hope the blame will be placed on the radio supervisors (it won’t).. This is very weird for me.. I’ve always wanted more from 99.7, always believed there was enough talent and energy around to do something better (anyone remember the bug and baldy show??) but tonight really bugged me. I think she deserves whatever she gets. It was messed up and may ultimately hurt any other local dj’s actually trying to do something good.. and for what its worth, the station is not crap because of lack of effort; ‘cuz there are people that DO want to make it better.. unfortunately they are not allowed to because of there “supervisors” views… Funny how those supervisors weren’t around tonight….

p.s ok, there are exceptions.. arrooj was crap, no matter how hard she tried.. :p sorry

Omg .. hahaha , now i really want to hear it SO badly .. : p

i agree with “Daddy’s Girl” , i mean seriously didn’t they noticed she was drunk ??
either they did it on purpose or guess the whole staff was partying or something .. !

Always hated her show. Hate her show(s) even more than I hate Linda’s breakfast show.

I used to listen to ‘drive back’ when Vicky (London Lady) used to present it and it was fun.

Latina Mina.. Heard her a couple of times and got so annoyed with the way she presented the show. The most irritating phrase that she used constantly was ‘Nonetheless’ and it didn’t always make sense.

Loud annoying irritating DJ.

Yesterday in fact I was in a taxi when this show was on (well, there are a few places where I hate driving my own car, so I opt for a taxi instead). The driver had put on FM and she was just going on and on about DJ Dirty Noise or whoever and yapping nonsense (as usual). A few minutes of her irritating voice and I told the driver to switch off the radio or put up some other channel.

Now I wish I hadn’t done that… hang on.. not sure.. would it be worth putting up with her crap for so long to listen to her make even a bigger fool of herself later on in the show…?? hmmmm…

I don’t think closing down the station is a problem…it wasn’t a good station in the first place. Kuwait has officially become a mess…never thought it could get worse (honestly)…first the fight in avenues then the other fight with mohannad and now this.

Hah! The final blow has been struck! Ever since I heard that Dr. La Bouche (or whoever) babble on in the morning and give me headaches, I’ve hated this station. Gavin Ford & DJ Maximus on Radio One are THE coolest. (Lebanon)

ZOMG !!!!!!!!! O.O ay shay …this is unbelievable xD stupid latina mina i never liked her <.< but maaaaan do i neeeed that recording of that show xD

I heard the start of the show yesterday, then I continued listening to it at 8:30, & thats when I knew she was drunk!
Anyway, I heard her saying she has some account at my space. I’m not into my space & i don’t know how to search her. Anyone can look it up?

Mark, maybe you can e-mail her, ask her what she was drinking yesterday 🙂

i wish roger and the other guy (can’t seem to remember his name he had a nice singing voice though) would come back they were the best djs ever!!! (a long time ago)

tori

that youtube clip … just added one day before the incident .. it feels like a conspiracy been planed .. !

🙂

LOL I can’t believe you didn’t hear it! dude I got a msg from my friend saying turn on 99.7 she’s so drunk! I usually ignore stuff like that but for some reason I checked it out & oh my freakin god! I didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry man! let me tell you the story, she was totally coming on to the dr going “hey babyboy I love your body you’re so hot yada yada..” sounding sooo wasted, they didn’t play a single song for over 20 mins! she was just going on & on about how hot the dr was hehe, then she finally got a call, the caller said “Get off the mike, you sound like a drunk hoochie!” which seriously, she did! So Latine started cussing her saying shut up you white B go F your brother! ON AIR! No they didn’t cut it off you could still hear her in the backgroud swearing at the caller, then she came back & said okay everybody enjoy the rest of the afternoon (at 9 p.m. mind you!) maybe it is afternoon to some people.. but yeah man!.. this would be taking a nasty turn even if she was in the states, it’s a big NoNo!

Hey Nat! *^_^*

i didnt hear what happen because i turned off my radio before what happened. but i do remember wanting to request a song but i couldn’t hear the number right she kept mixing the numbers

okay 79th comment here, we want the darn clip of her swearing, priceless!!!!! The biggest mess up of your lifetime little lanina mina, hear your attitude was reflecting a little too loud!!!!

waw .. thats most commented subject mark had ever seen posted so far as i see .. mark u should put this topic on top !

Last night I was coming home and I couldn’t listen to my iPhone since I was running out of some battery, so I decided to take a turn on the radio stations, I landed on 99.7 where this imbecile was literally screaming, Latina Mina, or whatever she calls herself and I was like omg wth is this and I switched around some more until I turned off the entire radio.

Seriously she’s such an annoying idiot she screams all the time, I mean you are using a mic we can hear you, you don’t have to yell so loud. But if this event actually happened and she gets fired, then all I can say is GOOOOOOOOOOD RIDDANCEEEEEE!

I’m that woman caller. I was so sick of listening to her as I was driving back from the university fair with my daughter and her friend. Yes, all I had to do was turn the station but why should I have to do that? Kuwait is a country where the government censors what is taught in school, what kind of books we can buy, AND what we listen to. So as a muslim, living in a muslim country, I should be able to listen to the radio and not feel like I’m listening to soft porn. She was so drunk and acting so disrespectful to herself and all who were listening. As a woman, wife and mother I had to say something to her. I did not curse her or say anything untrue. I would be more than happy to say it to her face. We all got a chance to see her true soul. She called me a “white b****” what does the color of my skin have to do with her actions? For the record I am an African-American Muslim. I do not speak 7 languages like her – just one correctly. I am sorry if this makes us lose 99.7 it’s a great station and the only english one in Kuwait at that, but she needs to be dealt with.

LOOL the only day my dad listens 2 99.7 nd he hears this shit!! I wana Hear that shit ppl!! GET A DAMN VIDEO OR SOUND CLIP SOOOOON!!

teach …u can google translate that 🙂

plus Toii 99.7 sucks id rather “easy” 92.5 to that crap poop of a station 99.7 …super station …yaa super station of their dreams ..those guys sucks so bad that they cant see it

Apparently she is half kuwaiti , half something else.
Anyone know what age she is?
Tried to check out her myspace page to leave a nasty comment telling her how disgusting she was but it was set to ‘private’. She is obviously getting spammed.
Doesn’t someone know ‘someone’ at the ministry that could get a recording of it? We need to get this up on a few blogs…
Anyone know if she was on the radio this evening or escorted by police from the building once her show had gone off air?
Find it hard to believe she got past ministry officials intoxicated.

Toii, before this takes any extreme curves

your ethnicity and religion is not relevant to the subject, u already have a strong case as it is and we all stand by you. respect is not partial for a certain religion or flag. so as an “Individual” not “other wise” ur rights has been broken and humiliated, even if u were a Hindu in India.

Lets please keep God and Religion out of every statement & use it were it promotes good, not sympathy

thank you for ur understanding

oh my!! i heard it all!!! i cant believe she got on the air drunk!! she had a good show with Dj saynomore a couple of weeks ago and both sounded real good! the next week she invites some doctor and says he was a DJ which was a toal disgrace to DJs in kuwait.Come on!!! she has DJ saynomore on the show and then goeson the next week with some idiot that claims he is a DJ??? She had the nerve to say DJ saynomore is coming to 99.7 and i was real amped up to hear him play again and she disapointed me badly!!!if anyone knows where he plays please let me know. i heard he is american and does some stuff in other places but thats what i call a Dj!!

I was alone in the car driving at 8:45pm Thursday night… when I realized there was not a single CD in the car. That’s the only reason I put on 99.7 and boy, I’m glad for the first time in my life that I did it. I had no idea she was totally wasted, because I hardly heard her before. Thought this is how she was all the time. Anyway, a song’s going on… then suddenly “Hello, I’d just like to tell you that… “(refer to post 89) and then all hell breaks loose.

Latina Mina goes on and on with the profanities and then the F-bomb starts… LIVE and audible! I couldn’t believe it… and it was absolutely hilarious!

And immediately after this… it was like as though the folks at 99.7 were totally confused. First, the volume of a song is raised, then dead silence, then again the song is played… and at the back you can STILL hear her swearing and then the guest dj (male kuwaiti) is like “Ooooooookay…………” and then the song plays again.

Then she gets back to her senses, back live on air, when she says “Some people just need to get an EJUCAYYYYSHUN!”

This entire episode lasted about 60 – 90 seconds… it was the funniest thing ever, I surely must’ve swerved a bit on the highway laughing like that.

I guess just a small company acccident.

*Walk on people, nothing to see…*

Btw; Children and drunk people are always speaking the truth.

superstation needs to put Dj’s like Dj crow, dj saynomore they are the best in kuwait. 99.7 WAKEUP AND SMELL THE COFFEE !!!

Ok everyone, lets not get facts mixed up with fiction.

She is not half Kuwaiti, she is from Puerto Rico. She was married to a Kuwaiti. She has grown up kids, she is not in her twenties.

I don’t like the woman. I cant stand her show. I dislike the songs she plays and she has totaly messed up my drive back from work. But there must be some listeners out there that like her.

But what she did is unforgivable. She does have the Kuwaiti nationality. But that should not stop the ministry from firing her. There are just some things that you don’t do in Kuwait. And she should know better.

She has shamed herself, her family, and her country if she considers Kuwait her country since she has the Kuwaiti nationality.

mark ..

Congratulations !! … This is officially your highest topic ever been commented .. and we still havnt heard the audio clip yet !

anyone yet ?? 🙂

WOW! amazing the talk of the town the shame of beeing half kuwaiti, get a life people and mind your own, this is an incident that happened and whether you like latino mucic or not, is a personal choice. Furthemore the people who hired her talents, probably cause she is half Kuwaiti, should answer on this blog.So now that you have ranted on this post, what do you want to happen next , hang her, fire her, no lets do it the Kuwaiti way, deport her and strip her of her citizenship.

I miss Vicky the London Lady! There is only so much latin music i can listen to, and we are not bloody salsero’s or whatever the hell she calls us! But hey at least she caused her own downfall, and we should get some local DJ’s like DJ Crow and others to host a few show’s, no talking just good music pleeeeeeeease!

I personally know LATINA MINA, Magdalina Santana-Magrabi. She is all what they say. I am happy this happened and its about time. She is the biggest 2 face back stabber x-friend I have ever had in my life. She talks bad about all her friends behind their back, the Mexican’s….you know who u are….RITA……Ester, all of you…and Kathy her neighbor and friend…..she talks very bad about u calling you the N word all the time……turns her friends against each other…what a back stabber! Buys presents for friends then complains…..at social functions….I could go on and on….

Talk about HATERS she is the biggest HATER. I have known her a very long time. She will use you and turn against you in a NEW YORK second….

She is from Miami, Florida and is an American/Porto Rican. She was married to a Kuwaiti. Mother of 3 college aged sons, and has Kuwaiti Nationality.

I have tons more if you would like to know………….I hated her Latina music and her voice and her ignorant subjects….she is the true meaning of illiterate. She is just a street girl from Miami………that’s it!

SICK 99.7 would let this happen or even hire her….she told me once they don’t pay her 300kd a month…..does she deserve it?

LOLOLOL….I’m tickled pink this happened……..PINK………..and the mother that finally called VIVA to you, glad you got the ball rolling. …..go back to MIAMI !!!!!!!!!MAGGI……Quit looking for some rich Kuwait to pick you up and retrieve you…………….won’t happen….wanna be J LO……LOLOLOLO

She needs to take a good deep look in the mirror, and into her soul…sick @@@@@. KARMA FINALLY GOT U…………….

ROFL All i do Remember is i was on my way to meet my friend and as usual there is nothing to be heared on the radio so i had to look for something then goes “Super station” On, The next moment i hear her talking about The DJ “Who is a Dr. i Believe” Saying how Fit he looks, and muscular.. it really did sound weird, but it was SO FUNNY SAD thing, i got to the place.. and i didn’t catch up the part where she said what she said, but TBH her voice was really Annoying and gives headache that’s all i got to say =X

Too bad what you did is unforgivable =X not on air

and Mark I SALUTE YOU.

Thank you post 115. I have more Kuwait pride them her ,and I am no way Kuwaiti, but i love this country i have chosen to live in and i would fight for it. So when i heard people disrespecting it hurt my heart. I am sorry if anything happens to 99.7. She needs to go not everyone else.

Mark, post 115 is becoming a personal attack

enough of this people, its like you get excited over other ppls mistakes. it was funny for a second but thats enough and you should just criticize her as a dj but not as a person and where she’s from , etc etc.

post 118…..A DJ, is a formal public personality true or not? So, yes it is personal and public. Show’s what the back bone of the station is made up of. Kind of like the expression, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”.

Does Marina FM have discusting personalities like Latina Mina? This is Kuwait not Miami. Who wants to listen to her opinion? Her music or anything about her? Let the music play!!!!!!!!! The young people of Kuwait want to party and drive the Gulf Street and jam to the music at the same time……..have fun! Not listen to some washed up has been wanna be DJ nearly 50 years old…..PLEASE………………….and as a DJ as you can read from the posts, most people don’t like her and her big mouth, scratchy, nagging voice anyway……maybe this well help her into stardom who knows!…….

rockyroad, don’t you think she went personal with me when she told me to go f*** my father and brother? What goes around comes around. People can’t go there with others unless they want to be gone there with themselves and when you put yourself out there you get what you get. The only thing about this whole situation that I hate is that we, as a community, may lose a great station. And some good people may lose their jobs. I feel bad about THAT and I pray it doesn’t happen.

Mark, i agree with wi-fi , guess now u can officaily say that this is the highest number of comments u ever got on ur bog :p

P.s: in Shark’s post it was 107 comments ..!

La verdad es una verguenza para la gente latina que vive en kuwait la verdad me quede sorprendida que magui una mujer de 50 anos ella tenga que expresarse de esa manera magui volve a tu pais los kuwaits no te quieren MAS BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY eres la VERGUENZA LATINA EN KUWAIT Y DE TODAS NOSOTRAS MAGUI ERES una mujer que has echo mucho dano a mucha gente y ahora estas pagando todo lo que hiciste. no salamente eres borracha usas Drogas tambien., y te haces a la mosquita muerta. stop drinking and smoking you know what ,,,,,,,, ?????? la gente y tus amigas te ODIAN

Just drop this already, all of your are milking this shit. I agree with 118. I vote for closing the comments on this entry, no one is saying anything productive or useful. Comment 115 was totally uncalled for and no one really gives a shit about her personal life.

Whats done is done, she was drunk and thats that. Its not THAT big of a deal.

oh and @119: DJ’s give their opinions and talk, thats their jobs. They’re not just meant to put music, if radiostations didn’t want DJ’s to speak they’d just have a computer play music all day.

Controversial topics get more exposure… however, I fail to see what’s so controversial about that woman – she got drunk (not the first time someone gets drunk), she was impolite (not so unusual) and she was a pest for many… oh well.

Like Andy Warhol said “Everybody gets their 15 minutes of fame”, Latina Mina got hers! It is something she will have to live and deal with, she is the one who has to face her colleagues, management and the public. We all agree that it was unprofessional to say obscenities on the air and insult the caller in that manner ( of course the Westerners and Latino’s will take the slack for that) and she should be reprimanded to the fullest extent, for she is representing Kuwait on the airways.Wasn’t there anyone in the studio that could see what was going on and could have prevented it before it got out of control? After all, 99.7 is broadcasted in other Gulf countries, as well. As I see it, a bigger crime was committed here. Although, it is against the law to drink alcohol in Kuwait, let’s be honest, people still do it but not out in public or at work. They do it in the privacy of their homes, BUT for her leave work and get behind the wheel of a car to drive home was criminal. How could the people in the studio allow her to walk out of that building and get behind the wheel of a car and drive? They are just as guilty as her.We have enough tragic accidents on our highways without drunk drivers! After reading a couple of critical comments especially 115, this woman needs professional help, this is not normal behavior for a person her age. Maybe just maybe, she will realize she has a problem after this fiasco. I hope she seeks it and gets the help she needs. Sounds like a good time for an intervention from her family and friends (if she has any forgiving friends left), before it is too late!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK guys, I think I can get you a recording!

I just need the exact date & the approximate time (+ -1 hour).

I should be able to get it in 1 working day.

No promises though.

I cant stop laughing at the thought of what happened! Hehe! 😉

115 go get a life, the idea was commenting some irresponsable DJ screw up on the air. We could not care less, if she is Kuwaiti or not, neither do we see a value of gossip and personal attacks. If you have a personal vendetta against her, then you should go and say it to her face instead of yapping on this blog and hiding under E.

looooooooooooooooool Teeman .. lmao 😛
well that what exactly happened to me when i said “now they are equal”, i was supposed to be the 125th commenter not 126 .

Translation of Senorita post as per Google

The truth is a shame for the people living in Latin kuwait truth Magui that surprised me is a woman of 50 years, she has to speak that way Magui return to your country you do not want the kuwaits MORE BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY The VERGUENZA art AMERICA IN KUWAIT AND YOU ARE ALL ABOUT U.S. Magui a woman who has echo much damage to many people and now those paying everything you did. salamente you’re not drunk you use drugs too. and you get to the mosquito dead. stop drinking and smoking you know what ,,,,,,,, ?????? people hate you and your friends

^ o k a a a a a y this conversation is still going on….
i say it’ll go up to 150 comments! :p and all over again once some1 gets a hold of the recording
And i saaay she wont show up tom! whos with me? XD

Guys!

I Can get you the recording.

Can someone just post what date & approx time the incident happened?

I’ll youtube it as soon as I get it. 😉

POST 136….I’m not shy or hiding, and yes I do have a personal vendetta…and I HAVE told it to HER FACE….what do you think about that? It’s the truth Translation of Senorita post as per Google in Spanish, that she does represent the Latin Community in Kuwait….and I’m posting my opinion whether you like it or not HELLRAISER. Also to POST 127 you are absolutely right about Latina Mina aka DAWISHA and a multitude of other nom de plume, needing professional help…

POST 136 who are you HELLRAISER OR MOTHER THERESA…LOL

GO CRY SOMEWHERE ELSE……

LOLOL

dang it! everytime i hear her voice on radio i instantly turn it to a news station radio channel, cause that alone is 10 times better than her saggy voice over the radio disgusting me with her annoying tune and bad taste.. so of course i only read about it didn’t listen to it

SOMEONE GET THE SOUND CLIP PLEAZE

Preferably the entire show of that day eh eh

Damn,

Just called my contact in Superstation 99.7.

Heads are rolling left and right.

If someone even asks for the recording he is fired! Hehe.

They too must be reading 248am! 😉

I’ll keep you posted if I figure out another way.

Lol… ok I am sooo desperate to find this!! It sounds hysterical! and I gotta agree with the comment above me. I just seriously hope this doesn’t bit everyone else in the a&*… The ministry is already coming down real hard on the whole opening up kuwait issue. This could send everyone else back to the dark ages…

I left my job last week and was feeling a bit bored, but this absolutely made my week!
Personally, I couldn’t stand her high-pitched, “too many food colourings”-styled hyperactive presenting… but this incident was extremely funny.

I think we need to start a realistic count of how much we’re prepared to pay for a copy. I’ll contribute 10KD…

I really don’t know what to say, I have spent 3 of my best years at that Radio. Had the best team, best management we truly took a second home of 99.7

It makes me sick to my knees to hear what this rookie DJ did on air, if she was there during my time; I would have probably knocked her off that MIC.

The Ministry usually keeps tapes of all the live feeds throughout all the stations, which i am sure the Radio management pulled as soon as they hear about this to use as evidence against her.

She will be prosecuted that’s for sure, and only God knows what will happen to her after that. You just can’t do that on National Radio!!!

I really would like to encourage the listeners out there, to come forward and apply, i am sure the Radio will be hiring soon. If you have the talent, the skills and music runs in your blood like it does in mine..i think you belong, that place could use fresh new talents…

Keep Groovin’

Roger (The Groove Master)

well yea i heard of it just Hope she gets Fireddddddddddddddd… she was useless on air any way…… Just hope she never turns up again She sucks….

Yaaaaaay the groove master himself is here, pleeeeeeeease i beeeeeeg u plz go back to 99.7 and make it a decent station plz!! 🙂

I don’t give two shits if she’s half Kuwaiti, half Martian or was born out of wedlock from an Amazonian pygmee, I do know she is one irritating, unprofessional floozie who makes Uruj look like Water f%^&$% Cronkite.

We seriously need satellite radio in Kuwait. Seriously.

wha t a fiasco first uruj then thsi what next.FM 99 7 needs a revamp

relgion has nothing to do with it but it is just plain rude to be rude on air

more linda and adeeb pls its clean!

NO MORE LATIN MUSIC THANK GOD!!!

POST 159????U OUT THERE? HOW DO U KNOW SHE RAN TO USA? WALLA?

LET IT BE TRUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to hear some good music again….please!!!!!!!! 🙂

Dang people… seriously… dang. I doubt the station keeps a recording of the shows that go on the air but I could probably find out really quickly.

“A number of bloggers on Kuwait blogs allege that a female DJ was recently drunk while on air on Super Station 99.7”

Allege?

Kil hal 3afsa o allege?

Masha2 allaaah… the “music scene” is really making a “scene”!

Don’t feel like completing the article…

I’m not surprised by what happened. I heard this woman on the radio a few months ago and remembered wondering what an uneducated latina hoochie mama like that was doing on a radio station- they probably just hired her because she was western and spoke english… but I mean come on

to: 115 and 143.
YOU ARE THE MOST DESPICABLE PERSON ..WHAT DO U GAIN FOR WRITING HER PERSONAL INFO? OH, WOW.. PINCHE PENDEJA. THAT’S WHAT U ARE…SHOW UR REAL NAME CABRONA. AND
to: 123.
WHAT UR NOW MS. SENORITA HOLY SHIT!! U NEVER MESSED UP IN YOUR LIFE? KIEN ERES ..OTRA PENDEJA…DE SEGURO..LOL..LOL…
AND TO THE REST OF YOU…SHAME ON YOU FOR RELISHING LIKE THIS..WHAT THE ^%%^^&&^ WOULD YOU EVER GAIN FOR GETTING THE TAPE???
Bella

Well, she is lucky because the islami extremist guys are n’t interested in 99.7, though they would call her the infidal bitch !

what happened is really rude and she has to be punished for cussing out on air.

but dont worry guys… we won’t miss miss her, as i think she will be on air again streaming from 88.8 !

cheers

99.7 is an FM station – it is supposed to play top 40 music, contemporary music on the *charts* not have some tom, dick or harry take out large chunks of time to play their own ‘specialized’ music (i.e. Latino, country etc).

If the idiot DJs dont know what the charts are I refer them to BILLBOARD top 40 or Itunes Top hits etc — it doesnt take a rocket scientist.

We need a Virgin radio station here – like they have in the UAE with Western professional DJ’s not ‘kids’ playing around talking crap: trivia, news, and all the other rubbish.

Play music and shut the hell up.

Like VOICE OF AMERICA’s charts throughout the day.

bella hahahaha i am so, so sorry mexicana.. errores? everyone has, but on the redio never pendejita,, mexicanita cabronita:) para tu informacion you have to respect my country ok ..special kuwait.. . the DOOR THIS OPEN FOR YOU 166 if you dont want to fallow the low well. Adios , bye marsalama (bella 166) we dont need people like you.:)

Since I am reading all the comments from all of you, I just want to says a few words to all the people. Since I have calmed down I have rethought my feelings. Sometimes we say things in the heat of the moment, that we regret. I am Spanish and I have lived in this country for many years. I love Kuwait and have adopted it as my own country. I feel that Latina Mina She did wrong and She is paying for her mistake. I don’t consider it a major crime, she didn’t commit murder or rape. Therefore, we shouldn’t be getting enjoyment out of her suffering. she is a woman with three kids and I feel that it is the kids that are going to have to pay the price. No matter what her kids are Kuwaitis. If we believe in Allah we should show forgiveness. You know in Kuwait, There are so many Kuwaitis that need help for alcoholism. I know what she did is shameful but it is a sign she needs help and also, I blame the people who work at the radio station, they should have known her condition and stopped her from going on the air, so this incident would never have happened. As a Spanish woman who has children of her own I feel for her and them. As a Latino i enjoyed her and listening Spanish music because it makes us feel like we have a little bit of home and our culture here in Kuwait. No matter who comes to take her place they cannot please the entire audience with music. Everyone has their own taste. Believe it or not there is a lot of Kuwaitis that are great dancers in Salsa and I salute them. Open your heart and let this topic die, enough is enough. God Bless all of you!

To ALCON
I am the DJ that was interviewed a week before the incident happened. A few friends expressed that i was commented on by this site so I am giving my opinion on this matter. During OUR interview she was very coherant and extremely sober so I must ask the public not to associate her behavior with my beliefs or standards of association. We must let the proper authorities handle this without public chaos and consider her and her families feelings in this regard. True, she has made a BIG mistake which should have never happened. Let’s learn from this and move on and hope that 99.7 gets the oppurtunity to continue to allow the proper and experienced DJ’s in Kuwait expressed their true passion.. DJSAYNOMORE

SHE HAS MADE OVER $200,000 IN CLICKS ALONE YOU PEOPLE ARE MAKING HER SUPER FAMOUS WHAT A SHAME. EVEN THE AMERICAN MEDIA HAS PICKED UP ON AND HAS OFFERED HER A JOB. WAY TO GO

to: You idiota pendeja…#171… first learn to write English…don’t know ‘what the h&^*%& your talking about saying ‘my’ country” babosa….”what are you saying??? don’t understand your pinche English..’ the DOOR THIS OPEN FOR YOU 166 if you dont want to fallow the low well.” feel sorry for you…you don’t know where the heck you came from…traidora. ja.ja.ja.ja.ja…..

Bwahahahahahahahhaha… Adios to Latino Music.
(Clear throat) Can we now for the love of God please, get down to serious business. RKFM needs to pull up thier socks and get good RJ’s.. for crying out loud, does the Ministry even vet these people before they are employed! Speaking English with an American accent should NOT be a criteria for a successful job application! Makeover time for 99.7, a complete shake up right from the very top to rock bottom.

On a lighter note: I’ll get paid in ‘Sand’ to see Latina Mina extradited to Kuwait and tried in court!!! :PPPPPPPPPP

If 176 is truly her, I vote that Mark should verify it first somehow (like make her type something on her myspace or whatever) and then give her the “mic” one last time to tell her side of the story … it is good to hear what really was going through her mind that evening hehe.

erm, I meant if he does know her for real and knows how to contact her .. do I have to say what is really on my mind everytime ?? you should figure that out on your own Mark hehe, damn and I am not drunk :-/

“Yes, all I had to do was turn the station but why should I have to do that?”

You should have to do it because if you dont want to listen to it turn it off, no one is forcing you to listen too it.

Fun fact, stunts like this made Howard Stern famous, the people that hated him listened more than people liked him because they wanted to see if he would slip up and find more things to talk about.

Not that I’m agreeing that she should had been drunk, but I get more angry with people who make excuses for needing to take action. Next time turn off your radio, and why because its your radio latina wasnt in your car forcing you to listen to her.

What ever happened to Uroj?
When Latina Mina started, I just stopped listening to the station!
Anyone know what happened to Uroj?

You mean Dj Uroj???? You cant be serious!! What about Dj Crow? What about that American living here Dj Saynomore? I saw his Youtube and he said he was going to have a show. The station must be too cheap to give these guys a chance. Why cant they listen to the people who really listens to the station. Those Dj’s are the best here in Kuwait and We dont get a chance to hear their music unless you go out of the country. SUPERSTATION needs to realize you pay for what you get!! Somebody correct me if im wrong

All I wanted to know was what happened to DJ Uroj! I never could tolerate her voice.

Unfortunately, I don’t think getting good DJ’s is on the top of the ministry’s list of things to do.

But look on the brighter side, it seems the ministry cares about what is said on these types of blogs and so maybe with all the fuss that’s going on they will decide to do something about their staff of DJ’s.

We can only pray 🙂

welcome to real world people…outside of kuwaits bubble, people do speak their mind, feel their feelings, express themselves, and yes, DRINK!! Hallelujah…A bit of a crazy uproar in Kuwait! I thought I was gonna die of boredom there for a minute!
And please, oh please…stop trying to speak spanish! You’re failing miserably!

I usually avoid 99.7 – but after this sensational news, it has made me go back to RKFM. For the past 2 nights, I’ve been listening to 99.7 and they were playing some extremely good music. Just the type that I love.

im glad… #195 seems to be the only one enjoying the station now…lol
i wish someone would take her out of kuwait to see what a real radio statioin should be like…

HATE HATE HATE-All I READ IS HATRED….PEOPLE WAKE UP AND STOP,STOP, STOP JUDJING!! LET AUTHORITIES DEAL WITH THE MATTER.
SHE DID VERY WRONG BUT WHO R WE TO THROW THE 1ST STONE??!!
GIVE HER FAMILY SOME SLACK….I’M SO HEARTBROKEN ABOUT THE WHOLE INCIDEN,SPECIALLY ABOUT HER CHILDREN.
LATINAMINA HAD HER VICES BUT ALSO GOOD QUALITIES, DOESN’T EVERYONE OF US? WE ARE AFTER ALL JUST HUMANS,RIGHT?

HYPOCRITS OUT THERE, YEAH U READING THIS….ARABS,MUSLIMS,WHITES,BLACKS,HISPANICS,YELLOW AND BLAH BLAH BLAH….I JUST HOPE THAT ALL THE GARBAGE WRITTEN WILL HAVE A POSITIVE OUTCOME IN KUWAIT…WE CANT GO ANY BACKWARDS…CAN WE???!!

ANOTHER THING…..EVERYBODY JUST COMPLAINING ABOUT DJS, MUSIC THIS AND THAT, ETC….WHY DONT U GET OFF YOUR “DERRIERE” AND DO BETTER!!!? THINK URSELF LUCKY 2 HAVE A RADIO STATION !!!

UFFFFF……SUCH A HARD CROWD TO PLEASE!

@196 (eddie)
First of all, I am not a “she”. At least the last time I checked.
Secondly, I enjoy a radio station as long as they play the music I LIKE. Getting out of Kuwait is not going to make a change to that.

this is getting lame 5ala9 ppl simmer down.
unless Linda starts goin insane or drunk or high . . .

*stares into outerspace*

. . . hmm then maybe latina mina part 2??

I love sequels

They still call themselves a ‘superstation’?

Talk about delusions of grandeur…

I suggest they visit Bahran, Qatar, Dubai and Oman and listen to *their* English language pop stations and then come back here and think hard about their current predicament.

Because 99.7 is not a money making entity, unlikea real station relying on advertising and sponsors and viewer ratings and feedback – like the rest of the civilized world, they will never improve.

I’m American and talk fast (but, I never could understand the Tequila Mina)
She was frustrating to listen to because she spoke too fast, mumbling (or slurred) and added dashes of Spanish which turned her language into Spanglish……………. CD’s were the only option when she was on.

Bye La-La-La Latina (lonely) Mina. Find a MAN!

Though I am American, and believe in all the freedoms provided to me as such — I also have the same respect for Kuwait, and the laws imposed here.

I listened to Latina Mina a few times, and like many people here, I would usually change the station (Something about her voice was like nails on a chalkboard to me). However, she did seem lively, and entertaining the little bit that I did listen.

It’s no secret that being drunk in Kuwait is a crime… and being drunk at work is highly unprofessional… so being drunk, at work, in Kuwait, for all the country to hear is what? A huge mistake apparently. But it’s not our place to judge.

I would venture to say she’s either fled the country, in custody, or hiding out somewhere drinking away her sorrows. I can honestly say I wouldn’t want to be in her shoes right now… even if they are a Winter 08 Jimmy Choos.

Not complaining about the lack of Latin music and screaming on 99.7 though.

Guys Guys!

remember Bugs&Boldy … i think in life on 99.7 they were the best DJ’s i have ever heard in KUWAIT …

I stoped 99.7, i dont hear it …. same old songs … same old talks … nothing new, nothing creative … FM99.7 needs to learn from Duabi stations … and be open …. its 2008 and 2009 on its way, we are still living in 60’s in Kuwait …. GROW UP!!! come to LIVE!!

LOL! THANK GOD FOR THE iPOD!!! no exceptions, theyre aaaaaaaaalllll BOOOORING, linda: blech, latina mina: annoying, uroj: :s like nails on a blackboard.

i heared the whole thing, & i couldn’y belevie what i was hearin, it was a shouk…well, she always talk like that,right? maybe its her in natuter(ya’know, talkin like a drunk person) i don’t really like any of the DJs, but that guy from the rock show sound sooo hot on air, & i really wanna know his name or get his number or e-mail lol, so plz y’all if any body know anything abt him tell me. okay??

This is for the woman caller #89 who first initiated the verbal assault.Everyone knows what hoochie means don’t act like the town virgin,you got what you deseved your insults were on the air and you knew that, so do not play the victim.You call yourself an african-american muslim from where? Compton.
You should be embarrassed and should accept most of the responsibility for what accurred after all you started it.
Your daughter # 24tried to minimize the significance of the word hoochie maybe it is what is normal for her in her everyday slang.

Thank you very much for removing my comment about the caller initiating the verbal assault . We all know what hoochie means and it was insulting and on the air. Caller should accept responsibility for her actions.

In addition you allow a blogger to offer reward for someones head putting her life at risk. With so many crazies out there that should be a crime..

To#115
Remember when you spit up it comes back to hit you in the face.
You are so brave to say those things about all your so called friends, putting all their names up for the world to see except your name. It does not matter because we know who you are and you are so tickled pink right now that you will be RED in the face soon when your family soon hears about your escapades. You do not know her well obviously because I am sure she will have the last laugh. You rejoice in the downfall of others and you will soon suffer the same fate. You are mean spirited and the ultimate HATER learn to spell .You call her an x-friend so obviously you run with the same crowd. So much for you reputation. LOOSER how dare you try and ruin her good family name by posting things of such nature .She has a wonderful family both in Kuwait and In the US. (Blogger you allowed her comments and according to the rules you do not allow personal attacks)

Just a comment about the B’fast show of linda, whenever she read any ad she does always said I hope I said it right, american cowgirl hey meaning you are not really educated by profession – @ atleast someone who graduated “Mass Communication” Note:that you are giving information in Public – lucky you that you are in Kuwait not everyone can hear your wrong grammar – you take note that there are many Kuwaitis who speak and write the right grammar! LOL

Dayyyyyyyyyyym, that was extremely horrible.
I haven’t got any other comment, but sure IT’S ON ! LOL

lol i cant belive i missed that 7ASAFA
ive hated her for a long time so thank god shes gone
too bad no one has a recording of that ;P

loooool omg i remember this it was a few years back….i wasnt really listening (getting my nails done) ans she was -i think- interviewing this DJ and she was all over him…then she got a caller on and the caller started saying stuff like “you shouldnt blah blah hes the worst blah blah …” and Latina replied by saying that the caller was a bit** then they cut off and played music…..i was like WTH ???
