Tatiana (born Tatiana Palacios Chapa on December 12, 1968 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) is a renowned international singer and actress.
Birth and childhood
Tatiana's parents, Dr. José Ramón Palacios Ortega and Diana Perla Chapa de Palacios, are Mexican citizens, native to Monterrey, Mexico, but she was born in Pennsylvania because her father was attending the University of Pennsylvania at the time. Under U.S. and Mexican law, Tatiana is a dual citizen of Mexico and the USA. The family soon returned to Mexico, and Tatiana grew up in Monterrey, where she currently lives.
Early career
Tatiana began her career as a performer at an early age, but her first starring role was in 1984's Kumán, a rock opera about a Tarzan-like character where she played "Jane". Then she made several pop albums, most notably Chicas De Hoy, achieving in this period of her career two number one hits on 16 latin american countries. Her Pop albums achieved 15 gold records and 4 platinum records during the 1980s and early 1990s. She also participated in several Mexican soap operas (telenovelas) and was the star in some movies (sometimes alongside Pedro Fernandez). She also participated in a campaign to encourage youth abstinence from sex, in which she recorded two duets with former Menudo member Johnny Lozada, and was featured in Newsweek and People magazines and on the U.S. television newsmagazine show 20/20 in a story reported by John Stossel.
Switch to children's music
However, despite her early successes, it wasn't until she began to record albums fully dedicated to children songs that she achieved a wider fan base plus international recognition. So far she has obtained 24 gold records, 8 platinum and 4 diamond. She hosted a children's show, El Espacio de Tatiana, on the Mexican network Televisa from 1997 to 2001. She also has a contract from The Walt Disney Company for voice overs, dubs and the recording of Disney Movies hit songs.
However, her greatest achievement is having revolutionized the structure, message and content of the traditional children's song, changing it from typical singalong and repetition of funny phrases that toddlers can easily follow, into real and credible musical statements, without ever compromising her target audience. This differentiates her from any other international artist in this style of music. These feats have been gradually developed during her recent albums, culminating in her latest releases El Regalo, El Regalo II, and Aventuras En Tatilandia.
Having received numerous awards for her spectacular shows and magical music, Tatiana is also a firm advocate of Make A Wish Foundation and Gift Of Hope Foundation.
In 2005 she released her first non-children's album in a decade as part of the celebration of the 20th anniversary of the beginning of her entertainment career, with Acustico, an all-acoustic album with renditions of some of her early pop hits and other songs, including two in English.
With 5 Latin Grammy Nominations for Best Children's Album and over 9 million copies sold, Tatiana has successfuly managed her career both as a singer and actress, releasing every year a new album, and most recently, acting as the mermaid "Coral" on the Mexican soap opera Amy, la Niña de la Mochila Azul.
Personal life
On June 29, 1990, Tatiana married the much older Andrés Puentes, a Mexico City disco owner. On May 30, 2001, soon after the birth of her second child, she left her husband, and this acrimonious breakup was a frequent feature in Latin American celebrity gossip columns for years. There were continuing court battles and accusations relating to this breakup and subsequent fights for custody of her two children (Cassandra, born May 11, 1994, and Andrik, born May 23, 2001) and ownership of the intellectual property related to her entertainment career (Puentes was Tatiana's manager as well as her husband). In 2005, a final decree of divorce was granted. Tatiana has retained custody of both of her children, whom she brought with her when she left her husband, despite various attempts by Puentes to get them away from her.
