Renata Flores (actress)

[3] "Mi Novio Juan" was a Spanish-cover version of the major English hit, "My Boyfriend's Back".

Her other major hit was "Mi novio esquimal" ("My Eskimo Boyfriend"), which itself was also a cover of another popular English rock song, this time of "My Boy Lollipop".

[4] Her friend, Jorge Ortiz de Pinedo, later remembered her as "The Gloria Trevi of their era", a person "with wild hair and broken socks".

[5] Flores experimented as a theater actress, until she finally had an acting breakthrough when she began participating in some Televisa telenovelas, as a teen-aged villain in "Gente sin historia" ("People Without a Story"),[6] which brought her fame in Mexico.

She followed that initial success with a participation in another teen-oriented telenovela, "Juventud, divino tesoro" ("Youth, Divine Treasure"), acting, again, as a teen-aged villain in the latter.
