Gloria Estefan has made music history and she says she owes it all to her fans.
The Latin pop diva and Grammy-winning singer was among this year's class of musicians inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame on Thursday night. At the accompanying gala, held at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City, Estefan became the first Hispanic woman to receive the honor.
"To those fans that have found in my music what I found in the music of the life-changing songwriters that nourished my soul throughout my life, I thank you for that privilege," the "Conga" singer said, according to the Associated Press.
