Thalia is a Mexican singer and actress. A former child star in TheEighties singing group Din Din, she rose to fame in TheNineties through her roles in telenovelas. Her solo music career began in 1990 and has led her to be dubbed "the Latin {{Music/Madonna}}". An attempt to launch her into the English-speaking market in the early 2000s met with limited success and led to something of a BrokenBase, though she's still a big star in Latin America and had a following in the Philippines when dubbed versions of the telenovelas she starred in were aired in the 90s and early 2000s.

!Thalia provides examples of:
* NewSoundAlbum: ''Thalia'' ("The English Album") was a deliberate attempt to reposition her as a crossover artist by having her sing in English and teaming her up with hip-hop producers rather than anyone who actually understood where she was coming from. It was met with indifference from the target market and hostility from her existing fans; the next album "El Sexto Sentido" took on a more guitar-based sound before she returned to her familiar latin pop style for ''Lunada''.
* RearrangeTheSong: ''Con Banda: Grandes Éxitos'' is as the title suggests, a selection of her greatest hits re-recorded in banda style.
* SelfTitledAlbum: Three: her 1990 debut, a 2002 effort largely in Spanish, and the 2003 English album.
* ThemeNaming: Her three biggest telenovela roles were all characters called Maria; after the success of the first one, the other two were created specially for her.
* WhatSongWasThisAgain: "It's My Party" shares little except an attitude with its Spanish original, "Arrasando."
