About Alejandro Fernandez

Though he trained as an architect, Fernández turned to singing in 1991. A year later, he released his first album. Since then, he has recorded 13 albums and sold a reported 20 million records, working with producers such as Emilio Estefan and Kike Santander. Fernández also has portrayed the lead role in Zapata, a 2003 movie about the Mexican revolutionary hero Emiliano Zapata by filmmaker Alfonso Arau.

Although he has many publicized female companions, it is rumored that he and Ricky Martin have been romantically involved; bisexual singer Miguel Bosé has also neither confirmed nor denied a 2004 tabloid report that he and Fernández have been involved as well. Although Fernández has been quoted as saying that he is not homosexual, a Chicago based Univision reporter stated that Fernandez visited a popular gay club, The Man-Hole, during his 1996 visit to perform at the UIC Pavillion in Chicago.

“Romanticism is something that will never die,” says Alejandro Fernández, explaining his choice of songs on A Corazón Abierto, his breakthrough recording about lost love, love that is never forgotten and the capacity to always love again. “I’m super, ultra passionate. We’re releasing an album that’s an x-ray of myself. That’s why it’s titled A Corazón Abierto. It was something very honest. Not naked, but something deeper than that.”

The beginning of this story has been told many times. The boy, barely three years old, is urged onstage to sing alongside his superstar father. The boy has rehearsed his part, he knows it well, but faced with a sea of tens of thousands of faces, he gets frightened.
And for well over a decade he never sings in public again.

What happens next has also been told. The boy grows up, studies architecture, and somewhere down the line discovers that what once terrified him is the only thing that can now satisfy him.

In 1992, Alejandro Fernández released his debut, self-titled album, launching one of the most prolific, successful and memorable careers in Latin music. Since then, the son of legendary ranchera singer Vicente Fernández has done what few progeny of famous parents have ever been able to achieve: He’s followed in his father’s footsteps, but at the same time, he’s carved out his own, separate path, releasing 13 albums and selling more than XX million copies along the way thanks to a magnificent, velvety voice and an unparalleled stage presence. With stage fright long forgotten, Alejandro has even forayed into film, most recently portraying Mexican hero Zapata in the acclaimed film by Oscar-winning director Alfonso Arau (“Like Water for Chocolate).
