Santiago de Chile’s most exclusive discotheque, OK Club, opened its doors last night to welcome well over 400 guests attending the Latin American Summit. The all-nighter party at the OK Club had most dignitaries on their toes until early morning hours. The climax of the closing event for the summit was reached when Spanish King Juan Carlos dedicated a song to Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
“I didn’t expect to be talking to the Spanish King at all”, said DJ Marcelo Jay, “he seemed like a really nice guy, after all that had happened only hours before… to dedicate Mr Chavez a song… I think it was nice of him. Yes, he is a really cool guy. He rocks. You should have seen him dancing the Macarena. He is the best dancer I’ve seen in years and I get to see quite a few every weekend. Cool. Way cool.”

I just can’t get it right. It’s like I’m the one you love to hate. But not today. So shut up Shut up Shut up. Don’t wanna hear it. Get out Get out. Get out. Get out of my way. Step up Step up Step up. You’ll never stop me. Nothing you say today. Is gonna bring me down, etc.

SANTIAGO (Reuters) – Spain’s King Juan Carlos told Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Saturday to “shut up” during closing speeches by leaders from the Latin world that brought the Ibero-American summit to an acrimonious end.
“Why don’t you shut up?” the king shouted at Chavez, pointing a finger at the president when he tried to interrupt a speech by Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero.
Zapatero was in the middle of a speech at the summit of mostly leftist leaders from Latin America, Portugal, Spain and Andorra, and was criticizing Chavez for calling former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar a fascist.
Chavez, a leading leftist foe of Washington, also attacked Spanish businessman Gerardo Diaz Ferran earlier in the week after he questioned the safety of foreign investments in Venezuela.
“I want to express to you President Hugo Chavez that in a forum where there are democratic governments … one of the essential principles is respect,” Zapatero told the leaders gathered in the Chilean capital, Santiago.
“You can disagree radically, without being disrespectful,” Zapatero, a socialist, said sternly, drawing applause from some of the other heads of state.
Chavez, a former soldier, made his mark on the three-day summit from the start, announcing his arrival earlier in the week with defiant lyrics from a Mexican ballad.
“With the truth in hand, I do not offend, I do not fear,” Chavez said on Saturday. “The government of Venezuela reserves the right to respond to any aggression.”
