Tatiana Palacios Chapa (born 12 December 1968), known mononymously as Tatiana, is a Mexican actress, singer and television presenter. Referred to as the "Queen of Kids"[1], she has been nominated for five Latin Grammy Awards for Best Children's Album and has sold over 9 million records.[citation needed]
Early life
Tatiana was born on 12 December 1968 in Philadelphia, while her father was attending the University of Pennsylvania. A dual citizen of the United States and Mexico,[2] Tatiana was raised in Monterrey, Mexico, by her parents, Dr. José Ramón Palacios Ortega and Diana Perla Chapa de Palacios, after her father's studies were completed in Pennsylvania.
Early career and pop music
Tatiana's first major musical project was as the character Jane in the 1984 live stage performance, Kuman, a Mexican rock opera about a Tarzan-like character. The show's 1984 album soundtrack also entitled Kuman was released under the group name, Cristal y Acero ‒ the rock trio consisting of guitarist Icar Smith, bassist Carlos Ortega, and drummer Samuel Shapiro.[3]
From 1984 to 1994, Tatiana released 10 pop music albums which garnered numerous hits throughout Mexico and some parts of Latin America.
Career as children's entertainer
In 1995, Tatiana began releasing children's music albums.
From 1997 to 2001, Tatiana hosted the children's television show, El Espacio de Tatiana, on the Mexican network Televisa. She would later host another children's television show, El Show De Tatiana, on TV Azteca. She had also performed voice-over work and recorded soundtrack songs for various television and film projects produced by The Walt Disney Company. She provided her voice to the character Megara in the Latin American Spanish dub of Disney's Hercules (1997).[citation needed]
In 2004, she appeared as the character Coral on the Mexican telenovela, Amy, la niña de la mochila azul.
In 2016, she returned to Televisa, appearing in programs such as Hoy and Recuerda y Gana
Return to pop music
In 2005, she released her first non-children's album in over a decade entitled Acústico – Mil Gracias, an unplugged acoustic album with renditions of some of her earlier pop hits as well a number of new songs including two in English.
Her 2007 tour had 56 sold-out concerts, and her subsequent 2008 tour, Espapirifárctico, covered 64 concert dates throughout five countries.
