From newbies to star veterans, there are plenty of Latino starlets under 25 that we love! Some of these stars have already built empires, sold millions of albums, or are quickly shining their way to the top. Without further ado, we proudly present the 50 Brightest Latino Stars Under 25!
With additional reporting by Sally Mercedes and Jill Pankow

4. 50 Under 25: Victoria Justice

Victoria Justice, 19

Although Nickelodeon said goodbye to the Hollywood Arts High School on the hit show, Victorious, back in August, the teen lead hasn't shown signs of stopping. The actress and singer of part-Puerto Rican descent also starred in the Halloween flick, Fun Size, and recently opened for the Rockefeller Tree Lighting Show on NBC. She's also a national spokesperson for Act Out Loud, which educates teens about driver safety and how to avoid accidents on the road. The red carpet can use more stars like her...

11. 50 Under 25: Jessica Sanchez

Jessica Sanchez, 17

The pintsized star may have lost the American Idol title to Phillip Phillips, but there's no doubt that the part-Mexican singer dominated the competition throughout Season 11. Steve Tyler called almost every single one of her performance "delicious" and we couldn't agree more. Besides landing a recurring role on Glee, she plans on dropping her debut album with Interscope Records soon. Pretty sweet if you ask us.

12. 50 Under 25: Blake Jenner

Blake Jenner, 20

Who doesn't love seeing somebody go for their dreams? Throw some singing and dancing into the mix, and it's even more better! That's why we can't get enough of Blake, who we followed on the second season of The Glee Project. Now that he's shown us what he can do as Ryder Lynn on Glee, we want to know what else he has in store for us. We can't wait to see this Cuban-American cutie's rise in Hollywood

13. 50 Under 25: Jake T. Austin

Jake T. Austin, 17

At 17, we were miserable in our summer jobs but Jake's resume is already longer than ours! For years, he starred as the voice of, Diego in Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go! and most recently, he was our favorite sidekick in the hit Disney Channel show Wizards of Waverly Place. With Puerto Rican, Argentine, and Spanish heritage in his blood, he is definitely making his culture proud!

14. 50 Under 25: Sara Paxton

Sara Paxton, 24

This blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty is very proud of her Mexican heritage, but we're even prouder of all the hard work she's been putting in over her career! Sara has worked consistently for the last 16 years, going from small roles to starring in Blue-Eyed Butcher this past year. Plus, here's something you may not know: Sara is also a great singer! Is there anything this woman can't do?

15. 50 Under 25: David Archuleta

David Archuleta, 21

We first saw David as one of the youngest contestants on American Idol's seventh season and boy did he win over our hearts! He may not have won his season -- that honor went to David Cook -- but he was the runner-up and released an album mere months later. He released his fifth album Begin this past summer shortly after starting a two-year mission in South America. We can't wait for his return!

16. 50 Under 25: Scotty McCreery

Scotty McCreery, 19

The half-Puerto Rican singer ran straight to the recording booth after being crowned the winner of American Idol's tenth season. He released Clear as Day just six months after he left the competition, and is already preparing to drop his sophomore album. In addition, he's making sure fans get into the Christmas spirit with his release of Christmas With Scotty McCreery last month, which will soon be aired into a holiday special for ABC titled, "Christmas With Scotty McCreery & Friends."

17. 50 Under 25: Nathalia Ramos

Nathalia Ramos, 20

The beautiful Spanish actress is best known for her role as Nina Martin on Nickelodeon's House of Anubis.

We'll be waiting.

18. 50 Under 25: Jencarlos Canela

Jencarlos Canela, 24

Sometimes it's hard to believe that the Cuban actor-singer is only 24-years-old! Jencarlos made his debut on the telenovela set for Telemundo's Pecados Ajenos. Several years later he landed the lead role in one of the highest rated soap opera to date, Más Sabe el Diablo. Since then, he dropped to successful albums, Buscame and Un Nuevo Dia, and settled down with his co-star Gaby Espino. The couple has a son named Nickolas. Gaby is one lucky lady!

19. 50 Under 25: Tyler Posey

He played J.Lo's son for Maid in Manhattan and managed to learn a thing or two from the Boricua star about how to become a multifaceted star! He is known for his breakout role as the ultimate wolfman on MTV's Teen Wolf, and the Mexican American star can also sing! He's the frontman for his rock pop band Disappearing Jamie. Go team Tyler!

20. 50 Under 25: Francia Raisa

The Latina actress had a long run as the sassy Adrian Lee for ABC's The Secret Life of The American Teenager, but the network recently announced its cancellation. One thing is for sure - Francia isn't going anywhere. She is currently filming Chastity Bites and plans to keep acting and singing. "My agents have been on top of things, and a lot of doors are opening up for me. A lot of my friends are pushing me to take a different direction. I've been talking about music before, and it's really coming to me. I've been at the studio a lot lately," she said in an interview.

Who can forget the star's endearing role as Rosita in the hit 2007 telenovela, Dame Chocolate? The Cuban and Venezuelan actress quickly crossed over to mainstream roles including, Man on a Ledge, Casa de Mi Padre, and What to Expect When Expecting.

Becky G, 15

The singer and rapper impressed all of us during her recent X Factor performance of "Oath" with Cher Llyod. Even Simon Cowell tweeted his approval of the talented teen star after the duo's performance. If she has his blessing then she's on the road to platinum success soon!

24. 50 Under 25: Leslie Grace

Leslie Grace, 17

A female version of Prince Royce sounds like pure genius to us. Leslie Grace's bachata and soul infused single, "Will U Still Love Me Tomorrow" has made her the youngest female singer to land the number spot on Billboard's Latin radio charts. This girl has talent! Can you tell we are in love?

25. 50 Under 25: Sarah Ramos

37. 50 Under 25: Daniela Bobadilla

There's nothing better in the world than a good friend - except, perhaps, a good song about friendship. A theme that spans all genres - from pop and rap to electronic and country - musical artists have been pondering and praising friendship since time immemorial. Alas, we don't have recordings of ancient Etruscan or Sumerian odes to friendship, but we do have some other dope tracks on this Spotify playlist, by everyone from Biz Markie to Bette Midler. Grab a friend and take a listen to the best songs about friendship.

Deep Fried Frenz, the fifth track off of MF Doom's food-related 2004 album Mm.. Food, samples an old-school rap song by Whodini called Friends, so you're kinda getting two friendship-themed songs in one. If you're friends with the masked rapper, don't worry: He doesn't really want to deep fry you. He does, however, want to know who his real friends are. Hip-hop can be a tough game, but it's made better with some quality pals.

Poor Biz Markie can't catch a break in this 1989 lamentation of forlorn groupie love, in which the Clown Prince of Hip-Hop meets a girl while on concert and, after trying to date her, discovers she already has a man - who she insists is "just a friend." This single was a one-hit wonder and Biz Markie hasn't been able to climb the charts since (appearing on reality shows and Men In Black II instead), but what a wonderful hit it is. Just A Friend is now a dance floor sing-along staple and a reminder that friendship can be bittersweet.

The Toy Story franchise and its theme song, You've Got A Friend In Me offers another bittersweet take on friendship. The song - written by Randy Newman and performed as a duet by Newman and Lyle Lovett - is a perfect tribute to friends helping each other when times get tough.

We go from bittersweet to syrupy with I'll Be There For You by The Rembrandts, best known as the irritating yet catchy theme song for the TV show , making it a begrudgingly suitable track on this playlist. We're really sorry. It has some nice and appropriate sentiments about friendship though, we promise!

I'll Be There, The Jackson 5's soul song about soul mates catapulted the quintet beyond the realm of mere bubblegum pop into the stratosphere, according to no less an authority than Michael Jackson himself. If you want more I'll Be There in your listening life, check out Mariah Carey's equally- powerful MTV Unplugged rendition.

So far, our songs about friendship are pretty straightforward and You're My Best Friend by Queen is no exception. Written by the band's bassist John Deacon - who also provides those Wurlitzer piano notes - it's a catchy pop ballad about Deacon's relationship with his wife and the joys of a friendship that evolves into marriage.

Ben E King's R&B classic has scaled the Billboard charts twice: First when it was released in 1961, then in 1986 when it was re-released, coinciding with the blockbuster coming-of-age film of the same name, demonstrating the song's timeless appeal. Both versions of Stand By Me serve as anthemic monuments to childhood camaraderie.

A friend in need is a friend indeed, as the saying goes, and Lean On Me by Bill Withers is a stirring expression of that sentiment. This song topped the Billboard charts twice: The Withers original went number one in 1972, then the Club Nouveau cover reach the top spot in 1987, also winning the Grammy for Best R&B Song.

With A Little Help From My Friends was first recorded by this British band called The Beatles - maybe you've heard of them. In this case though, we went with the Joe Cocker rendition, which is a friendship-themed classic in its own right, slower and bluesier than the poppy Beatles version. This version of With A Little Help From My Friends also found new life 20 years after its release as the theme song of the nostalgic series The Wonder Years.

"When the sun shines, we'll shine together/Told you I'll be here forever/Said I'll always be a friend/Took an oath I'mma stick it out til the end." Is there a better expression of friendship than that? Rihanna had a string of early successes before Umbrella, but this 2007 single was her breakthrough hit, turning her into the chart-topping titan she is today. It's also an affecting and danceable tune about the everlasting bond between friends.

It's been a good while since pure joy has won as big as it did today on the Hot 100, with Pharrell Williams' "Happy" finally landing atop the chart. As noted earlier, Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry, Be Happy" is the last song with the word "Happy" in its title to bow at the apex of the Hot 100.
Top 50 Feel Good Dance Songs
That fun fact demands that the other "Happy" and "Happiness"-incorporated jams reveal themselves for proper re-acknowledgment. A good bit of them are from yesteryear. Apparently, the world was a more cheery place in the '50s and '60s. Give them a looksee below-from Pharrell to Sheryl Crow, R.E.M. to Al Green and some acts your parents may have boogied to, here are the top 20 "Happy" songs ever. And don't let that word fool you; there are a few singles on here that aren't as peachy as their title suggests.
The ranking is based on actual performance on the weekly Billboard Hot 100 chart. Songs are ranked based on an inverse point system, with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at No. 100 earning the least. To ensure equitable representation of the biggest hits from each era, certain time frames were weighted to account for the difference between turnover rates from those years.
