"Supreme Diva of Mexican Pop" may sound hyperbolic when one first hears it, especially considering it was a term coined by VH1 of all things. However, when it comes to Gloria Trevi, it’s a perfect fit. There are few musicians alive that have the kind of influence and reach that she does, with most of her studio albums going to number one on her native Mexico’s album charts.
By the looks of it, this was Trevi’s plan all along. Her life in music began when she was twelve, when she left the town of Monterrey, where she was born, to pursue a career in Mexico City.
By 1985 she’d met her manager Sergio Andrade, and had joined a girl group called Boquitas Pintadas. The group was short lived, only lasting three years before splitting, but the year after that happened, Trevi’s debut solo album came out. “¿Qué Hago Aquí?” (What am I Doing Here) and was an instant smash, eventually selling two million copies and scoring a number one single in the form of “Dr. Psiquiatra”.
Trevi was almost immediately being talked about as the Mexican Madonna, and not just for her sexually provocative image. She often talks and sings of the social issues that made up the day to day life of many in her home country and around the world, from homelessness, to prostitution, drug trafficking and violence against women. She became an icon to millions in a very short space of time.
Her career in music and film blossomed but in 2000 she, Andrade and backup singer Maria Raquenel Portillo were arrested on charges of corrupting minors. Come 2004 she was released from prison and was immediately back in the studio.
“Cómo Nace El Universo”, the resulting album, was another number one smash that put her career right back on track. Hers is a career and in a lot of ways, a life, that only the strong could make it through, and in Gloria Trevi we have an artist who can face those challenges, pull through and still create the best music of her life. We’re all better off to have her around, and if the opportunity to see her perform comes up, I urge you to take it.

You might not have ever heard of her, but Gloria Trevi is a big deal in the land of Mexico. Dubbed the “Supreme Diva of Mexican Pop” and “The Mexican Madonna” for her controversial lyrics, 46 year old Trevi has a huge back catalogue of 90’s Spanish language hits to her name.
Despite her pop background, Gloria’s live performance is nothing to be sneered at, with a full live band and backing dancers half her age at her disposal, Trevi graces the stage in a glamorous feathery leotard and thigh high boots.
She has the crowd in the palm of her hand as she charismatically chats with the audience for lengthy periods between tracks, with the conversation often focusing on how the public can help with the darker topics she touches on in her music, such as Prostitution and Drugs. By the time she performs her hits “Con los Ojos Cerrados” and “Pelo Suelto” the crowd are in a raucous mood, shouting out the lyrics before she has a chance to sing!
In recent years Trevi has been in the spotlight mainly for her legal issues than her musical output, but with a career spanning 25 years and with an upcoming biographical movie to be released, there’s no denying her staying power, you wouldn’t be surprised to see her performing in a venue near you.

One of Mexico's most recognisable and successful artists Gloria Trevi truly believes there is still very much space for show within pop music and the live performance. She has been delighting crowds around the globe for over two decades with her charismatic personality and carefully choreographed performances. One reason the fans come back again and again is the fact Gloria is such a lovely personality and has such brilliant rapport with her audiences.
It is hard to believe she is now mid-40s as she looks flawless onstage whilst she moves around like a performer half of her age. She has a huge amount of Latin hits from across her albums so fitting them all in tonight is a real mission but thanks to some creative medleys and well timed visual interludes Trevi manages it. Her vocal holds through ambitious dance sections and after two hours, she does not seem to be hardly breaking a sweat. She truly is so much more than a singer, she is a performer.
