Pilar Montenegro (Spanish pronunciation: [piˈlaɾ monteˈneɣɾo]; born María del Pilar Montenegro López[1] on May 31, 1972, in Mexico City, Mexico) is a Mexican Latin pop singer and actress.[2]

Biography

When Montenegro was 10 years old she landed her first acting part in the TV series Juguemos A Cantar. In 1989 she joined the group Garibaldi. During the mid '90s she began to appear in soap operas and left Garibaldi to pursue a solo career. By 1996 she released her debut album Son del Corazón.

In 2001, Montenegro re-emerged into the music scene by the hand of then husband and executive music producer Jorge Reynoso, and after 6 months of recording with the music production of Rudy Perez, they released her second album Desahogo. The album produced the hit single, a cover of Yolandita Monge’s Quitame Ese Hombre.[3][4] The hit single spent 13 consecutive Weeks at Number 1 on the Hot Latin Tracks of Billboard. With the success of the album "Desahogo" Pilar Montenegro won multiple awards, including 4 Latin Billboard Awards.[citation needed]
