Natalia Oreiro was born on May 19, 1977 in Montevideo (the capital of Uruguay), located in the eastern direction of Latin America on the border with Argentina.
At the time of birth, Natasha already had a four-year-old sister, Adriana. The girls' parents are simple people who earn little, but enough to live on. Carlos Alberto was a salesman and Mabel Iglesias was a hairdresser in a beauty salon. Despite the fact that there was a rich set of professional tools at home, among them little Natasha was only interested in a comb, with which she happily twirled in front of the mirror, imagining herself as a singer. Did the little girl know that in twenty years the biography, height, weight and other parameters of Natalia Oreiro would become of interest to millions of fans?
The family of the future celebrity had to go through more than 20 moves. The girl studied at an ordinary school, but at the age of 8 she became very interested in theater and enrolled in various clubs. Since her hobbies did not interfere with her studies, the parents supported the abilities of their youngest and very talented daughter.
Like all teenagers, Natalia had her own idols. Among them was Marilyn Monroe, but she really liked the band Los-Ramones, for the sake of attending whose concert she even deceived her parents, saying that she would stay with a friend for two days. The viewing experience was the most amazing!
Childhood
Natalia Oreiro (full name Natalia Marisa Oreiro Iglesias Poghio Bouri de Mollo) was born into an ordinary family from the city of Montevideo, Uruguay.
She was the second child after her 4-year older sister Adriana, who now owns a fashion boutique. The parents of the future singer earned little, but they had enough to live on. Natalia's father Carlos Alberto Oreiro worked as a salesman, and mother Mabel Iglesias, who gave birth to the future artist at the age of 27, was a hairdresser in a beauty salon.
Shortly after Natalia's birth, the family moved to Andalusia, a region in southern Spain. Here the baby went to first grade, but before she adapted to the European way of life, her parents decided to return to Uruguay.
Parents could not afford to pay for a prestigious education for their daughters, but they did everything possible so that their children would proudly pronounce their last name. At the age of 8 she was sent to an acting club. Even then, Oreiro knew for sure: she would become an actress and, perhaps, a singer. One can only envy such determination at such a young age.
In general, musicality was clearly passed on to Natalia genetically. The girl’s cousin played the piano superbly, and her grandmother was a conductor in a large orchestra and instilled a love of singing in her daughter. Alas, she was unable to realize herself in this field, but she infected her youngest daughter with a dream of the stage.

Natalia first appeared on the TV screen at the age of 12, starring in a Uruguayan commercial for two years. During this time, more than 30 videos from various companies were recorded. This was her first practice.
In 1991, the girl was chosen as an assistant to Shushi (a Brazilian television star) on trips to various countries where the celebrity presented her television shows. So Natalya slowly began to become famous. In parallel with filming, she took part in castings in Buenos Aires, although she had to spend almost all the money she earned on trips.
In 1993, the girl received a small role in the television series “High Comedy,” but due to lack of finances, it was never released. By that time, Natasha had already ceased to accompany Shushi and refused the offer to represent MTV in Latin America. Natalia Oreiro, whose height, weight and biography at that time was of little interest to anyone, a year later received a more important role in the film “The Unruly Heart”. In 1995, she starred in the film adaptations of “Sweet Anna” and “Models 90-60-90.”
Long-awaited son
On the morning of January 26, 2011, Merlin Oreiro Mollo was born. This male name is considered very rare in Latin America, but the baby’s parents immediately liked it.
After the birth of her child, Natalia Oreiro diligently avoided the press for several months - she enjoyed the long-awaited, hard-fought motherhood. However, the time came to return to filming and performing, and Natalya had a very hard time being separated from her son. But as soon as the baby grew up, the young mother began to take him on tour. So, in December 2013, Natalya came to Russia for the “Disco 90s” festival, and little Merlin accompanied her. On the same trip, the baby first appeared on stage in Crocus City with his mother.
Ricardo Mollo and Natalia Oreiro and their son celebrated 2014 in a quiet family atmosphere. Maybe the couple made one wish for two and soon this beautiful couple will delight their fans with the joyful news of the birth of another child?! In the meantime, I would like to wish Natalya and her family happiness and mutual understanding.
The idol of millions, a talented singer, actress and fashion designer Natalia Oreiro was born in Uruguay in the family of a worker, Carlos Oreiro, and a hairdresser, Mabeli Iglesias. Natalia's parents supported their children from childhood.
“They gave me complete independence in my decisions, and when I turned 18, I left home alone and rented an apartment. I was considered very independent."
Her parents now live in Uruguay, but they often come to Argentina to visit their daughters and support them in any way they can.
The older sister's name is Ariadne, and in addition to family ties, the sisters also have business relationships. Ariadna received her education in the field of fashion and design. A few years ago, the sisters made their long-time dream come true and finally released their own clothing line. Only Ariadna runs the business in their store in Argentina, since Natalya is constantly busy filming, but all the clothes, down to the smallest details, as well as organizing presentations of new collections, are developed by the sisters together.

1997 turned out to be especially significant for the young actress. She received her first leading role with Diego Ramos thanks to Canal-9’s offer to star in the television series “Rich and Famous,” which the girl could not refuse. The television series had high viewing ratings, and fans began to be interested in various questions: how much Natalia Oreiro weighs, where she was born and other facts from her biography.
In 1998, the young actress began collaborating with the Te Le Fe company. Director Gustavo Yankelevich invited the girl to star in the film “An Argentine in New York.” Natasha did not immediately agree, because she actively participated in the work on the television series “Casablanca”, where she played the main role, but then difficulties arose and filming was stopped. Then the girl decided to accept Gustavo’s offer, not expecting much success. Bringing the director's ideas to life required professional skills, but Natalia coped with everything. The film was a huge success. Everyone knew that Natalya is not only a talented actress, but also a singer with amazing vocal abilities!
In October of the same year, with the support of Gustavo, the first solo album “Natalia Oreiro” was recorded. After its release, they managed to sell about 140 thousand copies of the disc, for which the actress and vocalist received a double platinum award.
Do you know how old Natalia Oreiro was when she starred in the famous series “Wild Angel”, which became a real triumph? This happened in 1999, that is, at the age of 22. The girl received the main role of the charming and brave maid Milagros Expósito Di Carlo (nickname Cholito) together with another actor – Facundo Arana (Ivo Di Carlo). Many people still call Natalia by the name from this series and think that she and Facundo are also in love with each other in reality. The series “Wild Angel” further fueled the fire of the celebrity’s fame and strengthened fans’ interest in her vocal abilities, since almost all the tracks were performed in this film.

In 2014, new films with her participation are planned to be released: “Angel” and “Blue Mauritius”.
Career blossoming
When filming of the series “Rich and Famous” began in July 1996, none of the creators doubted that Natalia Oreiro, who played the main female role, would wake up as a star after the premiere.
And so it happened: the story of Romeo and Juliet in a modern way made it recognizable even on the noisy streets of Buenos Aires. When a girl entered the store, a crowd of her fans immediately gathered there asking for an autograph. But this was just the beginning! In 1998, the TV series “Wild Angel” became a hit on television. The whole world, including Russia, followed the development of the relationship between the heroes Oreiro and Facundo Arana. The name Milagros - that was the name of Oreiro's heroine - grew on the actress and became inseparable.
The same year, the romantic comedy An Argentine in New York was released, which marked the beginning of Oreiro's musical career. She recorded the song “Que si, que si” for the tape, which was later included in her debut album.
