Ricky Martin-Introduction

Pop singer. Born Enrique Jose Martin Morales IV, on December 24, 1971, in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

He sold more than 60 million albums in his whole carrier through out the world which is one of the greatest achievements. He did many charity works and Ricky Martin Foundation is one of the example of his charity work, a non-profit charity organization. Martin started his carrier with the group named Menudo and after working with this group for five years, he released his Spanish-language solo album, Ricky Martin, in 1991. He also did acting on stage as well as on TV in Mexico, becoming a modest star there. From 1995 to 1995 he acted on ABC's daytime soap opera, General Hospital and in 1996 he starred in the Broadway production of Les Miserables. Before 1999, he released mostly Spanish album but after that in 1999, he released his first English-language album which he titled as Ricky Martin, which included the salsa-style "Livin' la Vida Loca". That album was sold in record of 17 million copies and through this album Martin got international fame. Other albums include A Medio Vivir in 1995, Vuelve in 1998, Sound Loaded  in 2000 , Life  in 2005, and the compilation album 17  in  2008. In 2010 Martin announced that he was a "fortunate homosexual man", ending years of fan speculation on the topic.

On the edge of the new millennium, Martin—almost by himself—gave Latino music an international face. An acclaimed performance at the 1999 Grammy Awards launched Martin into worldwide super-stardom. As Entertainment Weekly's Andrew Essex reported, "his leather-pants, electro-pelvis version of 'La Copa de la Vida' single-handedly goosed a very dull [Grammy] telecast, earning him a standing ovation."

In 2008, Matteo and Valentino, were his two twin sons, born via a surrogate mother. Martin also co-owns a Miami restaurant, Casa Salsa, and received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2007.
