Enrique Martin Morales

Ricky Martin, whose real name is Enrique Martin Morales, is a Puerto Rican pop musician, actor and writer. As a singer, Ricky became famous thanks to his participation in the teenage group Menudo. The artist's solo career has contributed to the promotion of Latin American music to the American and European markets.

Ricky was born in San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico. Mom Nereida Morales worked as an accountant, and dad Enrique Martin Negroni worked as a psychologist. When the boy was 2 years old, his parents separated, and Martin alternately lived in his father's new family, then with his paternal grandmother. In addition to him, later two brothers and a sister appeared in the house, and two more half-brothers appeared in the mother's new family.

As a child, Ricky became a real advertising star. With his participation, more than 11 videos have been released on Puerto Rican television. At the age of 13, the teenager was selected as part of the youth pop group Menudo. Ricky turned out to be the smallest participant, and at first the project management refused Ricky twice, but the boy stubbornly continued to come to auditions and eventually got a vacant position - for persistence.

With the team, the guy traveled all over South America, where the boy band was very popular. But by 1987, interest in Menudo began to wane, and after 4 years of collaboration and 11 full-length albums, Ricky Martin left the group.

The 17-year-old boy decided to try himself abroad. He moved to the USA and entered the Tisch School of Art. But he did not have time to start classes, as he receives interesting offers simultaneously from the Mexican theater and the recording studio.

Ricky Martin accepted both offers and was successful in both areas. In Mexico City, he plays with great enthusiasm in the musical "Mom Loves Rock", where film producers pay attention to him. The actor began to appear in the television melodrama Reaching for the Star, where he appeared in two seasons, and then in the full-length version Closer to the Star.

Later, Martin could be seen in the sitcom Get It, the medical drama General Hospital, and the youth parody of the horror film The Killer Hand. One of the memorable films in which an attractive performer took part (Ricky's height is 182 cm, weight - 82 kg) was the musical comedy "The Losers".

The actor did not forget about the theater stage either. In 1996, he starred in the play Les Miserables based on the novel by Victor Hugo, and in 2012 returned to Broadway and sang in Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical Evita.

In parallel with the acting, Ricky Martin's solo musical career began. He signed a contract with the Latin American branch of Sony Music Entertainment, and he signed it without even reading the contract. As a result, I began to receive only one cent from each disc sold.

At that time, Ricky was not interested in royalties: he wanted to become a real star. The first recorded album in Spanish, Ricky Martin, went gold not only in South America, but also in the USA. Hits such as Fuego Contra Fuego and El Amor de Mi Vida hit the radio rotation worldwide. This was followed by the equally successful discs Me Amarás and A Medio Vivir.

In 1998, Ricky's new album Vuelve was released, but the main achievement of this year was his performance in the final of the football world championship in France with the composition La Copa de la Vida, which was transformed into a kind of championship anthem.

К этому времени певец издает англоязычный альбом Ricky Martin и выпускает сингл Livin' la Vida Loca. Эта композиция изменила биографию Рики Мартина, а также стала проходным билетом на англоязычный рынок для других музыкантов из Латинской Америки, таких как Дженнифер Лопес, Энрике Иглесиас и Шакира.

В 2000 году Рики Мартин записывает композиции Nobody Wants to Be Lonely и Solo Quiero Amarte и клипы на них вместе с Кристиной Агилерой. Впоследствии среди людей, с которыми сотрудничал музыкант, окажутся также Daddy Yankee, Мея, Мадонна, Эрос Рамазотти, FatJoe, Амери, Мэтт Покора, Wisin&Yandel и Pitbull.

Later, the artist's discography was repeatedly replenished with new works, among which fans especially highlight the 2005 album Life, as well as the Spanish-language disc of 2015 A Quien Quiere Escuchar.

In his youth, Ricky Martin repeatedly stated that he was dating Mexican TV presenter Rebecca de Alba. The lovers even planned to get married and become a family. But in 2005, it was announced that Ricky and Rebecca were no longer together after 14 years of marriage. The couple did not have children, but today Martin is a happy father.

After 3 years, the artist became the father of two twins, Matteo and Valentino, who were given birth by a surrogate mother. Parenthood helped Ricky become a writer. In 2013, he published a book for the smallest, "Santiago the Dreamer in the Land of Stars."

In 2010, Ricky Martin wrote on his own official website that he was gay. According to the musician, years of silence and hiding the truth put pressure on him, and it seems right to say about his own sexual orientation.

In the same year, on the Oprah Winfrey show, the singer publicly repeated that he actually has a gay orientation. Soon, the musician even introduced his partner, the economist Carlos Gonzalez Abella. The singer and his partner talked about an imminent wedding, but in 2014 they parted ways.

Неоднократно Мартин затрагивал тему отношений в своих интервью. Он сообщал, что не хочет быть зависимым от одной ориентации, поэтому в качестве партнеров рассматривает и мужчин, и женщин, но длительные отношения готов строить только однополые.

В 2016 году спутником Мартина стал шведский художник сирийского происхождения Джван Йосеф. Он младше певца на 12 лет. Познакомились партнеры по переписке. До первой встречи они общались в Сети на протяжении полугода. Как вспоминал потом Рики, очное знакомство с Джваном произвело на него большое впечатление, певец буквально перестал дышать от восхищения.

The couple did not delay the marriage, the wedding was played a year after they met. And in 2018, a daughter, Lucia, appeared in the family. In October 2019, the couple found the happiness of fatherhood for the fourth time. The family had a son, Rennes Martin-Yosef. The artist reported this from the Instagram page, where he posted a photo with a child and husband.

Now the singer is more passionate about family and social life, but he does not forget about creativity.
