Yesi Rodriguez, 2nd Place
Yesi Rodriguez… remember this name. You’re looking at the next big thing. She’s not just a pretty face; Yesi is a force of nature that is about to erupt onto the scene. Yes, this half Cuban, half Peruvian Nightingale is a stunning model, but she is also a lyricist, singer, and experienced actress who travels the independent movie circuit. Most recently, she has been working tirelessly on her music career, which has people comparing her to the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, and Rosalía. With two singles, “Sigo Esperándote” and “Olvídate de Mi,” and a music video for the latter under her belt, Yesi is recording her debut EP, Descubierta. “I’m huge into songwriting, and I am doing this bilingual album. Descubierta is the Spanish word for discovery, but it can also mean uncovered, exposed, bare. I like it because my album is the opportunity for the world to discover me, but it’s also me baring my- self—exposing my soul.” Check out her official YouTube channel and prepare to be awestruck.

The difficulty with waiting, Rosalie thought, is that one can rarely wait in absolute stillness. Absolute stillness?—that part of herself, which was in the habit of questioning her own thoughts as they occurred, raised a mental eyebrow. No one waits in absolute stillness; absolute stillness is death; and when you’re dead you no longer wait for anything. No, not death, Rosalie clarified, but stillness, like hibernation or estivation, waiting for . . . Before she could embellish the thought with some garden-variety clichés, the monitor nearby rolled out a schedule change: the 11:35 train to Brussels Midi was cancelled.
