Early Life

Thalía was born Ariadna Thalía Sodi Miranda on August 26, 1971, in Mexico City, Mexico. Thalía's mother, painter Yolanda Miranda Mange, served as her manager from 1980 to 1999, and her father, Ernesto Sodi Pallares, was a writer, scientist, criminologist, and doctor of pathology. Thalía has three older sisters, Gabriela, Federica, and Ernestina, and an older half-sister, Laura Zapata, who is a singer, dancer, and telenovela actress. Thalía appeared in a TV commercial at just 1 year old, and started taking piano and ballet lessons the Conservatorio Nacional de Música at age 4. In 1976, she had an uncredited appearance in the Mexican film "La guerra de los pasteles." Ernesto, who suffered from diabetes, passed away when Thalía was 6, and she later revealed that she was so traumatized that she lost her voice for a year and was diagnosed with childhood disintegrative disorder. She studied at Lycée Franco-Mexicain elementary school and learned to speak French fluently.

Career

At age 9, Thalía joined the children's group Pac Man, which later became known as Din-Din. The band recorded four studio albums before disbanding in 1984, and later that year, Thalía was runner-up in the Juguemos a cantar music festival as a solo artist. She later played the lead in the musical "Vaselina," a children's version of "Grease," and in 1986, she joined the band Timbiriche. The following year, she made her television acting debut in an episode of the telenovela "Pobre Señorita Limantour," and in 1988, she starred on "Quinceañera," which earned her a Premios TVyNovelas award. While Thalía was a member of Timbiriche, the group released the albums "Timbiriche VII" (1987) and "Los clásicos de Timbiriche" (1989) as well as the 1988 double album "Timbiriche VIII & IX." She left the band in 1989 and later took English courses at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Before embarking on her solo career, Thalía took acting, singing, dancing, and music lessons as well. She returned to Mexico in 1990 and released her self-titled debut solo album in October of that year. The singles "Pienso en Ti," "Saliva," "Amarillo Azul," and "Un Pacto Entre los Dos" were hits, and the album was certified 2× Gold in Mexico, as was her follow-up, 1991's "Mundo De Cristal."

Thalía's third solo album, 1992's "Love," reached #15 on the "Billboard" Latin Pop Albums chart and was certified Platinum + Gold in Mexico. Her 1995 album, "En Éxtasis," was her first album to be released all over the world, and the single "Piel morena" was an international hit; the album went 2x Platinum in Mexico, the U.S., and Argentina.

Thalía was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2008, and in her autobiography, she wrote, "everything hurt, even my hair, which, by the way, started to fall out. At times it felt as if my head were going to burst, as if there were lead inside of it; my eyes ached in their sockets…the hypersensitivity of my skin was so severe that sometimes I couldn't even handle the bed sheets." Thalía became a U.S. citizen in 2006.
