## Background

In 1989, the Lo Nuestro Awards were established by Univision, to recognize the most talented performers of Latin music. The nominees and winners were selected by a voting poll conducted among program directors of Spanish-language radio stations in the United States and also based on chart performance on Billboard Latin music charts, with the results being tabulated and certified by the accounting firm Deloitte. The trophy awarded is shaped like a treble clef. The categories were for the Pop, Tropical/Salsa, Regional Mexican genres and Music Video fields. The 3rd Lo Nuestro Awards ceremony was held on May 23, 1991, in a live presentation held at the James L. Knight Center in Miami, Florida. The ceremony was broadcast in the United States and Latin America by Univision and included live performances by Daniela Romo, Ana Gabriel, Myriam Hernández, Raúl di Blasio, Rudy La Scala, Franco de Vita, Luis Enrique, Banda Blanca, Los Tigres del Norte, Orquesta de la Luz, Azúcar Moreno, Yuri, and Mariachi Cobre.
