| Mexican performer Luis Miguel is an international star who is loved for both his well-produced albums and his strong live performances. Since 1990, he has been the most popular performer in Latin America. In the United States, he has become the only Latino artist to have two Spanish language albums, Romance and Segundo Romance go platinum. Both are comprised of tender South American romantic songs. In the U.S., Miguel has earned three Grammys. Segundo Romance won him one of them. It also earned Miguel a total of 34 platinum records throughout South and Central America in 1995. Follow-up releases included Musipistas and 1996's Nada Es Igual; in 1998, he co-starred in the film Fiebre de Amor, and also appeared on its soundtrack. Amarte Es un Place followed a year later. Miguel's international stardom was heavily recognized in fall 2000 -- he won two Grammys (Male Pop Vocal Performance and Best Pop Album) for Amarte Es un Place at the first annual Latin Grammy Awards. Another accolade came in 2003, when he was nominted in the Favorite Latin Artist category of the American Music Awards. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Music Guide |
