Gloria Trevi is Getting Hitched

After a scary, even criminal relationship with ex Sergio Andrade which landed her in prison, Mexican 80s icon Gloria Trevi has apparently found love again in partner Armando Gómez. Venezuela’s (semi-defunct) RCTV reports:

Sources close to Gloria said that the singer is anxious for the event [saying] “if all goes right the wedding will be in December. I’m very excited because I’m getting married for love. Armando and I have overcome many obstacles.

Gloria, who is already working on her wedding dress, says she’ll be negotiating an exclusive [of the wedding] with a Mexican magazine.

Felicidades Gloria! Just make sure you stay as crazy as you have always been.

When I first heard this blast from the past I must admit I was disturbed by the subject matter — did I hear right? Is this really a song about someone ODing on pills and coming back to basically stalk their ex-BF under the guise of “guardian angel”?

Check out that bathtub scene!

It’s so bizarre. And so classic and so 80s, I just had to share in an attempt to lighten up your Thursday afternoon. Hang in there, it’s almost the weekend!

Gloria Trevi is back

Gloria%20Trevi%20home.jpg I must have missed this, but it seems that after touring the Latin stages of gay pride celebrations around the country this year, la Trevi is once again a star, according to AP:

When Mexico’s scandalous pop diva Gloria Trevi — once the country’s highest-paid performer and known as “Mexico’s Madonna” — left jail, she handed out fliers to promote herself.

The hard work is paying off: two years later, Trevi has shot to worldwide superstardom.

Her comeback album, “Como nace el universo,” or “How the Universe Was born,” sold more than 200,000 copies in the United States, and received a Latin Billboard Award nomination for best album.

The single “Todos me miran,” or “Everyone is Looking at Me,” whose video depicts a gay man coming out, hit No. 1 in Mexico. These days, Trevi has become an icon for gay men on both sides of the border, dubbed the “Gay Queen.”

Gloria Trevi: Gay icon?

There really shouldn’t be a question mark after that headline. It’s just a fact: Gloria Trevi, along with countless other 80s divas, has gone from washed up to incarcerated to fabulous, as was evidenced at this year’s San Francisco Pride celebration yesterday.

I watched in awe as Gloria rolled by in a convertible as one of the parade’s Celebrity Grand Marshals. At first I thought it was an imitator, but no, it was Gloria herself, writhing about, twisting and shimmying to dance music and waving to hundreds of thousands of people who probably had no idea who she was.

But she was on her way to the Latin Stage at the huge event that is held every year at San Francisco’s City Hall, and there her fame was wasted on no one. It was clear who every gay Latino male in the crowd was there to see, and it wasn’t some hard-bodied hunk (though those were certainly welcomed) but La Trevi, Mexico’s own answer to any focus of an E! True Hollywood Story. Outrageous, then tragic, now adored once again.

Sergio Andrade is back

Remember Sergio Andrade, Gloria Trevi’s creepy husband/manager who went to jail on charges of kidnapping, assault, et al? Just when we thought we had seen the last of him, he’s back with a book of poems and a new album. According to People en Español:

In an interview with the newspaper Reforma, Andrade revealed that during his time in prision he took refuge in literature. “In jail, the loneliness, the isolation and the distance put you in a situation of physical and emotional darkness that is such that, if you don’t make an effort to bring out the light you have on the inside, there is no way of surviving”, he said, adding that he still suffers from depression after the long and turbulent years he went through and that ended with him in a Chihuahua prison.

Andrade’s new book of poems is called Crónicas de la misma historia and his new album Las cuentas claras.

Meanwhile, Gloria herself seems to have recuperated quite well, has been touring and most recently appeared on the Nuestro Himno recording.
