Gloria Trevi
Gloria de los Ángeles Treviño Ruiz (born February 15, 1968), known professionally as Gloria Trevi, is a Mexican singer-songwriter. She is one of the best-selling Latin music artists in history, having sold over 20 million records worldwide. Trevi is known for her emotional lyrics, performances, and lasting influence on Latin music, being dubbed the "Mexican Queen of Pop" by Rolling Stone. She is also known for the media coverage surrounding the Trevi–Andrade scandal, involving sexual abuse and forced labour led by her former manager-producer Sergio Andrade.
At 15, she moved to Mexico City to study performing arts at Televisa's CEA. In 1984, she met record producer Sergio Andrade, who added her to his girl group project Boquitas Pintadas, which disbanded after one unsuccessful album the same year. Trevi later tracked down Andrade and recorded a demo in Los Angeles, which led to her debut album ¿Qué Hago Aquí? (1989), containing her breakthrough single "Dr. Psiquiatra" that rose her to fame. In the 1990s, Trevi released the albums—Tu Ángel de la Guarda (1991), Me Siento Tan Sola (1992), Más Turbada Que Nunca (1994), and Si Me Llevas Contigo (1995)—featuring hits like "Pelo Suelto", "Zapatos Viejos", and "Con los Ojos Cerrados", cementing her status as a sex symbol and pop icon and bringing her international fame. In 1997, Trevi retired from public life with Andrade.
During this period, a complaint against her, Sergio Andrade, and other women was filed in Chihuahua involving allegations of sexual abuse, corruption of minors, and forced labor, following the disappearance of 17-year-old Karina Yapor and other young women. In January 2000, they were arrested in Rio de Janeiro. She spent nearly five years in pre-trial detention, first in Brazil and then following her extradition to Mexico. Finally, in 2004, Trevi and two other women were tried and acquitted, while Andrade was convicted. Her life and career have been dramatized in the 2014 biopic Gloria and the 2023 TV series Gloria Trevi: Ellas soy yo.
Trevi resumed her career with four number-one albums on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart, including Gloria (2011) and El Amor (2015). She also scored success with singles such as "Todos Me Miran", "Cinco Minutos", and "No Querías Lastimarme". In 2016, she received the BMI Latin President's Award, and in 2018 she was inducted into the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame. Recognized as one of the top Latin touring acts of the 21st century, Billboard named her one of the best female Latin pop stars of all time and received the Legend Award at the Hispanic Heritage Awards in 2025.
