Her first brush with fame came appearing nude on Caballero magazine, a men's magazine published in Mexico City, when she was only 16 years of age. After appearing in a series of films and telenovelas her career took off with Los ricos también lloran, playing a poor orphan. This telenovela became a success in Latin America, Spain, France, Russia, China and the Philippines. Two years later she played the main role in the telenovela version of El derecho de nacer. In 1987 her career got a huge boost internationally when she played the main character in Rosa salvaje alongside Guillermo Capetillo. The theme song for that telenovela, also named "Rosa salvaje", became one of her biggest #1 hits as a singer. In 1990 Castro participated in Mi pequeña Soledad, where she had to play both a 40-year-old victim of rape who became pregnant and later was paralyzed in a car crash, and her 20-year-old daughter ("Soledad"), who was the product of the rape.

During the 1990s she began hosting variety shows, and has continued to do so since. Her son, Cristian, is a teen idol singer across Latin America and the United States, She, and Christian's father, Manuel Valdés, have never married. Castro's private life has become fodder for paparazzi photographers and gossip magazines.

She has dated Los Temerarios member Adolfo Angel and actor Omar Fierro. She has been rumored to have had an animosity towards telenovela actress Lucia Mendez and singer Lupita D'Alessio after Castro dated one of Lupita's ex-lovers. She hosted Big Brother VIP 4. Big Brother VIP 2, Big Brother VIP 3 (Season 1 & 2) and Big Brother 3-R.
