About me





Hello and welcome to my blog! My name is Itzel L. Yagual and I have created this blog to share my knowledge and resources with other entertainment industry enthusiasts. I am an emerging Image Consultant and aspiring Executive Producer.  

Feed Your Entertainment is a blog dedicated to providing entry-level entertainment professionals and entertainment minded individuals effective ways on how to navigate the entertainment world, how to cope with the ups and downs of the industry as well as how to launch an effective start-up. The blog covers topics such as the importance of social media, blogging, image maintenance (physical & internal) reputation management, networking, writing effective business plans, celebrity analysis/cases, handling interviews and much more.


I am passionate about Latino urban music culture, music industry and television production. My aspirations are to establish an entertainment business and to become an executive producer for television. One of my goals is to create better opportunities for Latino american artists within the music industry. Currently there are a few artists that have had the opportunity of impacting the American music world. My future endeavors will allow Latino American artists to be discovered as well as establish a presence in the music industry. Aside from pop and hip hop, there are many other genres in Latino music, where artists are having a difficult time in making lucrative connections. I am developing a plan that will minimize the gap and ensure a path of success for many artists.
