The winners of the Second Annual Latin Grammy Awards were announced during a press conference on Tuesday, October 30, 2001, at the Conga Room in Los Angeles, California. The conference, which was broadcast live on the internet, was hosted by Jimmy Smits and Paul Rodriguez; the original award ceremony, scheduled for September 11, 2001, was canceled. Alejandro Sanz was the big winner winning four awards including Album of the Year. Juanes won three awards including Best New Artist.
Cancellation
Prior to the date of the event, the Latin Grammys were moved from Miami to Los Angeles due to protests by Cuban exiles for allowing musicians living in Cuba to perform. The awards were to have been presented at the Shrine Auditorium with a CBS national telecast, to be hosted by Jimmy Smits and Christina Aguilera, on Tuesday, September 11, 2001. The telecast was canceled because of the terrorist attacks that morning in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. After many discussions about rescheduling the ceremony, The Latin Recording Academy determined it would be impossible to do so. Instead, the winners were announced at a press conference on October 30 at the Conga Room. The cancellation of the event cost the organizers an estimate of $2 million in losses.
