Mexican performer Luis Miguel is an international star who is loved for
his well-produced albums and strong live performances. Since 1990, he
has been one of the most popular performers in Latin America; beloved
enough to be referred to as "El Sol de México" ("The sun of Mexico"). In
the United States, he was the first Latino artist to have two
Spanish-language albums, Romance and Segundo Romance, go platinum. The
latter release won him one of his five Grammys; it also earned a total
of 34 platinum records throughout South and Central America. Miguel's
international stardom was heavily recognized in 2000, when he took home
two awards -- for Male Pop Vocal Performance and Best Pop Album -- at
the first annual Latin Grammy Awards. Another accolade came in 2003,
when he was nominated in the Favorite Latin Artist category of the
American Music Awards. Other highlights throughout his discography
include Amarte Es un Placer (1999), the tour for which broke his
previous record for the highest-grossing Latin artist tour; México en la
Piel (2004), which sold three million copies worldwide; Complices
(2008), an overdue collaboration with Manuel Alejandro; and a
self-titled album (2010) that marked his 40th birthday.
