She is the fifth child in her family ,blessed with all female siblings; she is the baby. When she was young she loved to play sports with the boys more than she liked to play dolls with the girls. She was and still is a fun person to be with. She used to like climbing trees, wearing torn up jeans, and doing everything that the boys did- The typical tomboy. But over the years, Thalia has changed into the "Reina de Telenovelas," A gorgeous voluptuous female with astounding natural beauty.

After participating in many musical festivals for children, she was accepted into a group called Vaselina(1984), and then integrated with the teen-pop group Timbiriche . At first, she was part of the back-up singers but then to her luck, she got to be the main singer in the group.

She recorder "Timbiriche VII, VIII y IX " with the group.

In December of 1989 she said her good-byes to the group Timbiriche; she was preparing herself as a solo artist. Alfredo Diaz Ordaz produced her first three hit albums named "Thalia", "Mundo De Cristal" and "Love". They maintained a close relationship that almost lead her to the alter but unfortunately he past away while filming her second soap opera, "Marimar." His death brought pain and suffering to Thalia during this dark period of her life.

On a windy night of the 2nd of December 2000, Thalia exchanged vows with Thomas D. Mottola in St. Patricks cathedral in New York City. May their happiness last forever.
It seems that the years 2000 and 2001 have been Thalia's best years. In 2000, she released her new "baby," the Arrasando CD. A CD composed of 12 smashing new hits.

Then once more, Thalia does it again. Thalia releases her Banda CD everyone has been waiting for. Thalia-Grandes Exitos en Banda contains previous hits with from EMI Latin years.

Mini Biography

Jessica Ann Simpson was born July 10, 1980, in Abilene Texas to Joe and Tina Simpson. She grew up in Richardson, Texas, living a normal childhood as the daughter of a youth minister. In church, she was able to shine, using her gifted voice to attract an independent record producer. This producer was the first of many to see the potential for greatness in Jessica. However, because of the lack of finances the independent label went bankrupt, preventing Jessica's album from reaching wider audiences.

Although heartbroken, Jessica's dream to be on the radio remained. With support from her family, and her father's managerial talents, Jessica's independent album managed to work its way to Tommy Mottola's desk, then President of Columbia Records. He was won over by her "pure heart" and strong voice. Jessica's singing career with Columbia would take her all over the world many times over and include three major albums reaching Gold, Platinum, and double Platinum.

As a born performer, it was only natural for Jessica to spend more time in front of the camera both in television and feature films. Audiences were naturally drawn to her open and uncensored attitude, contributing to the success of the hit reality show "Newlyweds: Nick & Jessica" (2003), which she starred in alongside her then husband Nick Lachey. She followed up the show by making the bold choice to fill in the famous "Dasiy Duke shorts" alongside Johnny Knoxville and Seann William Scott in her debut performance for the film version of The Dukes of Hazzard (2005).

Jessica has proven she is a rare talent with an ability to capture the hearts and minds of fans around the globe. Whether it be music or film, it is evident that she has a long career ahead of her as she continues to change and grow as an artist.

Beyonce Knowles




Birth name : Beyoncé Giselle Knowles
Born : September 4, 1981 , Houston, Texas, United States
Genre(s)
: R&B
Occupation(s) : Singer, songwriter, record producer, music video director, actress, dancer, fashion designer, model
Years active : 1990–present
Label(s) : Columbia, Sony Urban Music
Associated acts : Destiny's Child, Jay-Z, Solange
Website : www.beyonceonline.com








When you look like Beyoncé, when you dance like Beyoncé and, most importantly, when you sing like Beyoncé, good isn't always good enough.

Though she celebrated only her 25th birthday yesterday - hence, the title of her new album, "B'Day" (Columbia/ Sony Urban) - Beyoncé already has had more successes than most artists have in their lifetimes, boasting an enviable string of smash hits that not only sold well, but were jaw-droppingly original and genre-busting to boot.

Nothing on "B'Day" matches the dizzying sensory overload of "Crazy in Love" and its auxiliary booty roll or the hand-throwing grandeur of "Independent Women," or even the laid-back, hip-hop cool of "Check on It." Beyoncé is too bootylicious to spend her time on this new slate of good-not-great songs that came together in less than three weeks during what was supposed to be her vacation - and that unfortunately often sound like it.

That said, "B'Day" is also a likable, upbeat album that is far more listenable than the uneven "Dangerously in Love," as Beyoncé dumps the soupy ballads for some nice, midtempo dance numbers.

Beyonce Knowles: “We Are One: The Obama Inaugural Celebration”

With Bruce Springsteen, U2, George Lopez, Will.I.Am, Samuel L. Jackson, Queen Latifah and Tom Hanks among the other celebrities on-hand, the event included “a diverse array of talent featuring both musical performances and historical readings.”
“We Are One,” which aired live on HBO at 2:30PM and will be broadcast at 7PM and 11:30PM to cable and satellite subscribers, formally launched four days of festivities as part of President-elect Barack Obama’s swearing-in ceremony, which is due to take place on Tuesday (January 20).
Bringing an end to the festivities is Tuesday night’s Neighborhood Ball, during which time Beyonce will be singing the Etta James classic “At Last” during the Obama’s first dance as President and First Lady.
