It
takes a lot of time to conquer the hearts of the whole world just ask
Mexican singer Paulina Rubio. Over the course of the past two
decades, she's seen success as part of the biggest teen act in her
homeland, enjoyed popularity as an actress on the big and small screens,
and become the reigning golden girl of Spanish pop.
 "I think music is like love," sighs the
south-of-the-border phenomenon, when asked about her first foray beyond
the Latin market. "You kiss someone to give and receive an energy, a
connection. I'm trying to connect with people worldwide, to send out my
musical kiss around the whole planet." With gold or platinum success in
eight different nations, and an infectious English-language debut,
"Border
Girl," there's only one thing to say: pucker up, world.
Born
to one of Mexico's most celebrated film stars, Susana Dosamantes, and
raised in Mexico, Los Angeles, and Spain, Paulina's exposure to her
mother's trade made a huge impact on the budding artist at a tender age.
"My mom was shooting a lot of films in Europe when I was young, so we
were traveling with her around the world, with a lot of artists around:
writers, architects, singers, filmmakers," exclaims Rubio. "It made me
very independent, and that is when I started making some of my own
decisions, at around 7 or 8."
The
first personal decision that set her on the road to fame was to begin
training in singing and dancing, which led to her enrollment at a
prestigious performing arts school at the age of eight. Within two
years, Paulina's talents were so evident that she was chosen to be part
of the popular children's recording group Timbiriche.
Though she still balanced her schoolwork with her
newfound popularity (good grades were a mandate for staying in the
group), she says "the real lessons were recording and performing" for
rabid audiences throughout South America. Her work with the Mexican pop
group made Paulina a star, along with fellow member,
Thalia.
After spending nearly a decade as part of the
successful group, Paulina Rubio decided that the time was right
to leave Timbiriche, and few were surprised when her much-anticipated
solo debut, "La Chica Dorada," spawned three number-one singles and
scored platinum sales.
In the interim, she's duplicated that triumph
with four more smash hit CDs and taken on another challenge, following
in her mother's footsteps as a film and television star. "Acting was
like a hobby for me," Paulina Rubio notes modestly of her hit soap opera roles
and her film work, "but music is my priority. I love to perform, and to
spread my music and my messages."
"My music is in nightclubs, but also in kindergartens
and at weddings, and all kinds of places," she says of her broad appeal.
"In music, there are no rules. Like painting, you can mix colors and
textures. I feel very free to perform dance, rock, and whatever else I
want."
"I grew up doing concerts and I'm going to die doing
concerts all over the world," affirms the Mexican firebrand. "That's
what I'm here for and what I believe in." And no, after spending most of
her life entertaining fans throughout the globe, it's time to unleash
Paulina Rubio's unique appeal on American audiences and prove once and
for all that this girl's popularity has no borders.
Along with the acclaim and popularity
she is sure to garner more fans with her dance-infused pop tracks.
Paulina amazes audiences and fans with her energetic live performances.
