Biography
Paulina Rubio built a Latin pop dynasty that began in a teen pop group and exploded into solo superstardom. Born June 17, 1971, in Mexico, she was a member of Timbiriche from 1982 to 1991, then launched a solo career that would make her one of the best-selling Latin music artists of all time. Her early studio albums—La Chica Dorada (1992) and 24 Kilates (1993)—made her EMI Latin's top-selling Mexican female artist. By the mid-1990s, she shifted toward dance and electronic sounds with El Tiempo Es Oro (1995) and Planeta Paulina (1996), while also debuting in film with Bésame en la Boca (1995).
Her watershed moment came with the 2000 album Paulina, which critics hail as one of her best releases. It launched her to international prominence; she became Billboard's best-selling Latin artist in 2001. She maintained momentum with Border Girl (2002) and the acclaimed Pau-Latina (2004), both cementing her as a crossover force. Albums like Ananda (2006) and Gran City Pop (2009) sustained critical and commercial success, followed by the EDM-leaning Brava! (2011). In the 2010s, she transitioned to television, coaching on La Voz México (2012), La Voz Kids (2013), The X Factor USA (2013), and returning to La Voz España and La Voz Senior in 2019.
Rubio's chart legacy is unparalleled: five US number-one singles ("Te Quise Tanto," "Dame Otro Tequila," "Ni Una Sola Palabra," "Causa Y Efecto," "Me Gustas Tanto"), three number-one albums on Billboard's Latin Albums chart, and numerous regional hits. She has earned seven Billboard Latin Music Awards, five Lo Nuestro Awards, three MTV Latinoamérica Awards, and special recognition as the "Mexican artist with the greatest international projection". As a Gemini (born June 17), her adaptability mirrors her career arc: from teen idol to dance innovator to EDM experimenter. Forbes ranked her twice among Mexico's 50 most powerful women (2012, 2013) and included her in their Twitter superstars list (2015). In 2020, Billboard named her among the greatest Latin artists of all time.
