Biography |
Anahí is a Mexican actress and singer.
Anahí was born to Don Enrique Puente who is from Spain and
Marichelo Portillo. She has two sisters named Diana(half
sister from har father's side she lives in Peru) and
Marichelo, and a niece named Ana Paula(Marichelo's Dauther).
When she was a child she was the face of a well-known soft
drink brand and recorded a song called "Te doy un besito"
which was played at the end of a children's daily
programming on Channel 5 in Mexico.
In 2006, Anahí opened her own clothing store in Mexico City,
called Anahi World.
In 2007, a Barbie Doll version of Anahí was released, based
on her character in Rebelde.
Anahí and co-star Christopher Uckermann, had a brief romance
during the filming of Rebelde, but split after 10 months.
Before starring on Rebelde, Anahí battled a serious eating
disorder and was on the brink of death. In 2008, with the
support of Televisa, Anahí launched a campaign for
Anorexia-Bulimia awareness.
In 2006, the tax administration of Mexico freezed four of
Anahí's bank accounts as a preventative measure because they
believed the actress was involved in tax fraud. In 2008,
after taking the issue to court, Anahí was granted back her
accounts, two with Banamex and two at Scotiabank.
In November 2008, after a concert in Venezuela, fans snuck
into Anahí's hotel room with a videocamera after she had
checked out. While in the room they discovered that Anahí
had left numerous bags of fan gifts, cards, and letters. The
video circulated the internet quickly, leaving fans
extremely upset. Anahí later released a statement
apologizing.
In April 2009, after a year of dating and rumors of a
wedding, Anahí and her boyfriend Rodrigo Ruíz de Teresa, a
nightclub owner, split up. Less than a month after her split
with Rodgrigo Ruíz de Teresa, Mexican magazine Nueva
published personal photos of Anahí with her new boyfriend. |
