Thalía, born Ariadna Thalía Sodi Miranda Mottola on August 26, 1971, is a renowned Mexican singer, actress, and entrepreneur. She was born in Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, to Yolanda Miranda Mange and Ernesto Sodi Pallares. Her mother, an academic painter, served as her manager from 1980 to 1999, while her father was a pathologist, criminologist, police scientist, and occasional writer. Tragically, Thalía lost her father to diabetes in 1977 when she was just six years old, a loss that deeply affected her and led to a temporary period of speech loss, believed to be due to post-traumatic stress.
Displaying artistic flair from an early age, Thalía began ballet and piano lessons at the age of four. She was born under the zodiac sign Leo, a symbol often associated with determination and resilience—traits that are well-reflected in her journey to stardom. Now in her early fifties, Thalía is considered one of the most successful Latin American entertainers, with a reported net worth exceeding $50 million.
Thalía comes from a large and close-knit family. She has four sisters: Laura Zapata, Gabriela, Federica, and Ernestina. Laura Zapata is also an actress and has appeared in various telenovelas. Despite early challenges, including the loss of her father, Thalía has nurtured strong familial ties and has often spoken proudly of her roots.
In December 2000, Thalía married music executive Tommy Mottola. The couple resides in New York City and has two children together—a daughter and a son. They have maintained a stable and supportive family life, frequently sharing insights into their journey through parenthood and marriage.
In addition to her native Spanish, Thalía speaks English, French, Portuguese, and Filipino fluently. Her linguistic skills extend into her musical repertoire—she has performed songs in each of these languages, broadening her global appeal. Her ability to connect with audiences across cultures has significantly contributed to her international fanbase and her reputation as one of the most successful Mexican artists abroad.
