Tell me more about Emma, is she related to my cousin Leonela Gonzalez?

Val:

See Leonela Gonzalez at for instance:

Leonela was a ballerina and the model for the statue outside the Tropicana.

We are both descendents of Leonela Enamorado, who according to DNA data was at least part Siboney

Wow Ms. Gonzalez was hot in her day!

WOW! Que calentura! First thing I notice are the hips!

I'm reading a book called "Havana Nocturne" about how the mob was involved in Cuba in the 50's. One thing mentioned in that book was the voluptous Cuban woman in shows at the Tropicana, Sans Souci, etc. I've always wanted to see how they looked like. I'm impressed! Any more photos of the Cuban woman dancers, or a link to photos?

I found a link of some famous dancers (hotness, by the way) from Cuba along with some old photos of pre-Fidel.
