Carlos Vives Actor

Vives began acting in a number of shows in 1992, including “Pequeños Gigantes”(Little Giants – 1983) and “Tuyo es Mi Corazón” (Yours is My Heart – 1985). He finally found fame in 1986 by portraying the main role of Gallito Ramírez. That same year, he released his first album, Por Fuera y Por Dentro.

In 1987, he released his second ballad album, No Podrás Escapar de Mí. Though the title track reached No. 30 on the Billboard Hot Latin Tracks, the album did not sell well. His sequel album, Al Centro de la Ciudad, would become his last album to feature synthesizer-romantic ballads. Some of the songs got some attention being featured in telenovelas, but the album, just as its predecessors, failed to gain success.

In 1989, he was offered an acting job in Puerto Rico, and upon moving, he took a break in his music career. He is remembered for his leading roles in the soaps La Otra and Aventurera.

On 13 September 2018, Telemundo announced Vives as the fourth coach of La Voz (U.S.). Vives joins Luis Fonsi, Alejandra Guzman, and Wisin as coaches on the Spanish-language version of the NBC singing competition The Voice.
