BURBANK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Estrella Media, Inc., a leading vertically integrated, multi-platform, Spanish-language media company in the U.S., announced today that its EstrellaTV television network recently debuted Chisme En Vivo, a one-hour entertainment news magazine show, to headline its afternoon programming lineup leading into primetime.

Chisme En Vivo is an exciting hour of national entertainment gossip hosted by two of Latin entertainment’s most provocative and well-known television personalities, Elisa Beristain and Javier Ceriani. The show airs M-F 4P/3P C. The show features today’s hottest Latin celebrity breaking news and gossip, as well as exclusive insider reports and happenings surrounding some of Latin entertainment’s most influential celebrities in the U.S. and abroad.

“We are excited about the interest being generated by Chisme En Vivo and our talented hosts. While our work environment may have changed, our commitment to informing and entertaining our audience remains the same. I am proud of the innovation and perseverance demonstrated throughout our company as we safely restart entertainment productions,” stated Ivan Stoilkovich, EVP, Television Programming at EstrellaTV. “The safety and wellbeing of our staff and talent remains a top priority for the company, and we look forward to safely providing the content that our audience enjoys.”
