Paulina Rubio
Dosamantes (born June 17, 1971) is a Grammy and Latin
Grammy-nominated Mexican singer and actress.
Biography: Daughter of Mexican actress Susana
Dosamantes, Rubio was born in Mexico City, Distrito
Federal, Mexico. Her music is popular in Latin America,
Spain, and the United States. English-speakers may
recognize her from her 2002 hit single "Don't Say
Goodbye". Paulina Rubio has sold over 17 million
albums worldwide.
Paulina Rubio released her latest album Ananda on
September 19th, 2006 in th U.S. and on September 18th,
2006 worldwide. It reached the #1 spot in the U.S. and
countries all over Latin America. It reached #25 on U.S.
Billboard's "Billboard Hot 200" albums chart,
and it reached the #1 spot on Billboards "Top Latin
Albums." Ni Una Sola Palabra has reached the #1
spot on radio in many Latin American countries, as well
as the U.S. and Spain. It reached #1 on U.S. Billboard's
"Hot Latin Tracks." Paulina Rubio's last three
Spanish language albums have all consecutively peaked at
the #1 spot on Billboard's "Top Latin Albums"
chart.
On April 30, 2007, she married Spanish public relations
executive Nicolas Vallejo Najera "Colate" in
Xcaret, a Mexican eco-tourism park on the Mayan Riviera.
Pre-solo career: Paulina Rubio is the older of
two siblings. She has a younger brother named Enrique.
At age 5, Paulina was taking singing, acting, jazz,
painting, and dance lessons while enrolled at what is
now the Centro de Educación Artística (CEA) in Mexico.
After two years of being there, Pedro Damián and Martha
Zavaleta contacted Paulina's parents for their approval
in Paulina joining a band that would be formed by
children from the center.
On April 30, 1982, she began her career when she was ten
years old, under the guidance of Miguel Bosé and
debuting in a children's pop group called Timbiriche.
The original band had 7 members: Alix Bauer, Benny
Ibarra, Diego Schoening, Mariana Garza, Paulina Rubio,
Sasha Sökol, and Erick Rubin (who joined a year later).
Rubio recorded a total of 11 albums as part of
Timbiriche. In 1985, Timbiriche participated in the
musical Vaselina (Spanish adaptation of the American
musical Grease). While in Timbiriche, Rubio also turned
to acting in telenovelas with Televisa. She landed her
first role in 1988, as the villain Paulina Montenegro in
Pasión y Poder (Passion and Power). In 1992, she also
starred in Baila Conmigo as Andrea, one of the biggest
telenovelas of that year. Two soundtracks, Baila Conmigo
and Recuerdos de Baila Conmigo, were released. Many
members of the popular soap opera made many television
performances on Siempre en Domingo, among other TV
programs.
EMI: The Golden Years: In 1991, Rubio left
Timbiriche and focused on launching a solo career. She
traveled to Spain to begin work on her first project as
a solo artist. In 1992, she released her solo debut
album, La Chica Dorada (The Golden Girl) under the EMI
Latin record label. The album's title stuck and to this
day Paulina is known as "la chica dorada" or
"the golden girl" in Latin America. The
album's first single "Mío" (Mine) quickly
became one of her trademark songs. La Chica Dorada was
certified Diamond in 1997, and she was presented with an
award during her promotion of Planeta Paulina on
Veronica Castro's extinct music show, La Tocada. After
many reissues in countries like Mexico, USA, and Spain,
the album "La Chica Dorada" has gone on to
sell more than 1.2 million copies worldwide.
In 1993, she released 24 Kilates (24 Karats), which sold
more than 150,000 copies in just three weeks after its
release. In 1995, El Tiempo Es Oro (Time Is Gold) was
released. It included the hit Te Daría Mi Vida (I Would
Die For You) and the theme song to the 1994 Mexican film
Bésame En La Boca (Kiss Me), which starred Paulina
Rubio. In 1996, she released her last album with the EMI
Latin record label, Planeta Paulina, which included the
hit single Enamorada (In Love) and featured the theme
song of the 1995 telenovela of the same name in which
Rubio starred as Alma, Pobre Niña Rica (Poor Rich
Girl). Rubio also recorded English versions of the songs
appearing in the album. Some of these would be released
years later in a hits compilation.
After Planeta Paulina, Rubio took the longest retirement
of her career. She left the music scene and moved to
Spain where she did a little bit of everything. Except
for her participation in 1998's Reencuentro Tour with
Timbiriche, Paulina was absent from the music scene for
nearly four years.
Paulina: Rubio's strong comeback to the music
scene began in summer of 1999 when she recorded Vive El
Verano, the theme song to a summer TV show she was
presenting in Spain, which was her first single under
her new contract with Universal. In early 2000, the
single Lo Haré Por Ti launched her fifth studio album,
the self-titled Paulina. Paulina was nominated three
times at the second annual Latin Grammy Awards for
"Album Of The Year," "Song Of The
Year," and "Best Female Pop Vocal Album."
She became the winner of multiple awards. It became
Rubio's first no. 1 album on Billboard's "Top Latin
Albums" chart, as well as the highest selling Latin
album of 2001. The album Paulina has sold more than 4
million albums worldwide to this date. Other singles
released from the album include the ranchera El Ultimo
Adios, Y Yo Sigo Aquí, Yo No Soy Esa Mujer, Sexi Dance,
and Tal Vez, Quizá. Such was the success of Paulina
that Universal Records decided it was time for Rubio to
prepare her first English-language production.
Border Girl: Paulina Rubio's presence in the
English-language market came in 2002. The hit single
Don't Say Goodbye rose to the 41st position on the
"Billboard Hot 100" Chart and whose music
video became a regular on MTV's Total Request Live. On
June 18, 2002, Border Girl, Rubio's first foray into
English-language-Pop, was released. The album debuted at
the 11th position on the "Billboard Hot 200"
Chart and was certified Gold in the US. Although her
debut English album did not launch her into superstardom
out of the Hispanic world, it did give Paulina the
international recognition she sought for years. As of
June 21, 2002, the Houston, TX radio station 104 KRBE
declared the 21st of June as "Paulina Day" in
Houston. Rubio also appeared on The Tonight Show with
Jay Leno, The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn, and
CD:UK, among others. She also performed at many
international festivals, including Wango Tango,
Festivalbar, and Festival di Sanremo in Italy. With
Border Girl, Rubio managed to appear in magazines like
Rolling Stone, Stuff, and Blender. In Fall 2002, Rubio
toured and performed material from Border Girl with
fellow Latin pop star Enrique Iglesias.
Pau-Latina: Paulina Rubio's 2004 comeback album,
Pau-Latina, proved to be a smash success. The album's
first single, Te Quise Tanto, became her biggest single
to date, reaching the top position on Billboard's
"Hot Latin Tracks" for several weeks.
Pau-Latina became Rubio's second consecutive album to
debut at #1 on Billboard's "Top Latin Albums."
Other singles released from the album include the #1
track Dame Otro Tequila and the top ten hits Algo Tienes
and Mia. Pau-Latina won several awards during the year
and was nominated for a Latin Grammy for "Best Pop
Female Vocal Album" in 2004. In 2005, she was
nominated for a Grammy Award for "Best Latin Pop
Vocal Album." She was the only woman nominated in
that category.
The success of Pau-Latina opened doors for Paulina, as
she hosted The MTV Latin America Awards for the first
time. It was the first time a female artist hosted and
proved Paulina is a force to be reckoned with. Paulina
Rubio was also named People En Espanol's 2005 Star of
the Year.
Ananda: Paulina Rubio released her latest Album
Ananda on September 19th, 2006 in th U.S. and on
September 18th, 2006 worldwide. It reached the #1 spot
in the U.S. and countries all over Latin America. It
reached #25 on U.S. Billboard's "Billboard Hot
200" albums chart, and it reached the #1 spot on
Billboard's "Top Latin Albums." Ni Una Sola
Palabra has reached the #1 spot on radio in many Latin
American countries, as well as the U.S. and Spain. It
reached #1 on U.S. Billboard's "Hot Latin
Tracks."
Ananda was certified a multi-platino award for album
sales of 250,000 in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. Paulina
performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Gala in Oslo, Norway,
alongside such acts as Rihanna, John Legend, and Lionel
Richie, who also lined up to honor 2006 Nobel Peace
Prize recipient, Muhammad Yunus.
