Rafael Amaya (El Señor de
los Cielos) is without a doubt one of the best-known actors in
television today, with a career that includes starring roles in
successful TELEMUNDO original productions, theater, English and
Spanish-language movies, and European television series. The
leading man, who has also served as co-host of "The Billboard
Mexican Music Awards," "The Billboard Latin Music Awards," and the
first-ever broadcast of "Premios Tu Mundo," starred earlier this
year in the fourth season of the Super Series "El Señor de los
Cielos". The Mexican actor achieved crossover success in the
Hallmark TV film "Meddling Mom," the third-highest audience-rated
production in the network's history. Rafael has also diversified
beyond acting, producing his first movie, "Paco & Santo vs.
América" in 2009 and recently launching his first clothing line,
Rafael Amaya Western Style.
Internationally-acclaimed Mexican star Aracely
Arámbula has an artistic career that spans more than 15 years
as an actress, host and singer. She has starred in dozens of
highly-rated novelas in Mexico and around the world, such as
"Acapulco, Cuerpo y Alma"
"Cañaveral de Pasiones" "Pueblo Chico Infierno Grande" "El Alma no
tiene Color" and "Soñadoras." She had her first leading antagonist
role on "Rencor Apasionado" in 1998 and two years later she played
her first leading role in "Abrázame muy Fuerte". This project,
where she also interpreted the theme song "Niña y mujer" (Girl and
Woman), consolidated her as an actress and singer. Following this
role, which led her to a TV y Novelas Award nomination, Arámbula
launched her first album "Solo Tuya" in 2002, ranking on the
Billboard Latin Music Albums chart. In 2005, after her
participation in "Las Vías del
Amor," where she also interpreted one of the theme songs,
Arámbula launched her second album "Sexy," produced by Abraham Quintanilla III. Arámbula will soon star
in TELEMUNDO's upcoming "La Doña" in the role of Altagracia, an
elegant, beautiful and successful woman who runs a construction
empire, and whose series of major traumas early in life made her
the implacable "Doña" she is today.
The lovely and talented actress Fernanda Castillo returned to TELEMUNDO's
screen in the fourth season of Super Series "El Señor de los
Cielos" in the role of Mónica Robles. Before joining the network,
Fernanda appeared in a number of successful television productions
in her native Mexico and
the United States, including
"Clap," "La Fea Más Bella," "Destilando Amor," "Teresa" and "Amor
Bravio." Fernanda's artistic career also includes roles in theater
in such plays as "Wake Up Woman" "Cabaret," "Hoy No Me Puedo
Levantar" and "Los Monólogos de la Vagina." On the big screen she
has appeared in "Déficit" and "Corazón Marchito" and will soon star
in "No Manches Friday" which hits theaters on Friday, Sept. 2.
TV Host, actor, and director David Chocarro began his
artistic career in his native Argentina, participating in novelas like
"Floricienta," "Angels," "MyLove," "Sos Mi Vida," and "Mal Parida" and several plays including "Casi un
Cuento" and "Bichitos." His role in "Los Exitosos Pérez" propelled
him to international audiences. Chocarro joined TELEMUNDO in 2012
with a leading role in "El Rostro de La Venganza." He then starred
in "En Otra Piel," and was a participant in the reality show series
"Top Chef Estrellas, where he beat all other contestants to raise
money for the foundation of SOS villages in Honduras. As a director he has overseen many
plays and short films. He returns to TELEMUNDO with a leading role
in "La Doña," starring as Saul, an attorney who defends the victims
of gender violence and all young women fighting for a way out of
unemployment, poverty and overpopulation.
Carlos Ponce, who will
also perform at the event, is an internationally recognized Puerto
Rican actor, singer-songwriter and host. He got his first role on
TELEMUNDO's soap opera "Guadalupe," and his first leading role in
the Mexican telenovela "Sentimientos Ajenos," where he also sang
the theme song. His self-titled debut album, "Carlos Ponce," held the #1 spot for nine weeks
in the Latin Billboard charts. In the "Billboard Hot Latin Tracks,"
Carlos reached # 1 with "Rezo" and "Decir Adios." He crossed over
with guest starring roles on "Beverly
Hills 90210," "7th Heaven" and "Once and Again." Most
recently, he was on Nickelodeon's "Hollywood Heights" and
Eva Longoria's "Telenovela," and did
voices for "FREE BIRDS" and "RIO." He also joined forces with
Disney in "The Pirate Fairy" and with ABC in the primetime hit
comedy "Cristela". For several years he co-hosted the "Miss
Universe" pageant on TELEMUNDO, and in 2006, he hosted the show for
NBC. Carlos also hosted the "Billboard Latin Music Awards" on
multiple occasions. Through the years he has played the leading
role in telenovelas like "Dame Chocolate," "Perro Amor," and "Santa Diabla." This year he
returned to Spanish-language television and music in TELEMUNDO's
