Martin became a singer at age six. He would perform for his family and was encouraged to pursue music and acting. The years 1984-1989 he spent as one fifth of the Puerto Rican boy band Menudo. The experience allowed Martin to travel worldwide and further develop his performance skills. After returning home in 1989 to graduate high school, Martin was signed as a solo artist in 1990 to Sony Discos, the Latin branch of Sony Music Entertainment.
Ricky Martin’s first self-titled album came out in 1991 to much success in Latin America and the U.S. His single “Fuego Contra Fuego” was the most popular of the album, becoming certified gold in Puerto Rico and the U.S. He continued with Spanish albums throughout the early 90’s and his single “Maria” from album “A Medio Vivir” received overwhelming praise in Europe.
The World Cup in 1998 was a turning point for Martin, as his song “La Copa De La Vida” was featured during the sporting event and garnered the attention of its international viewership. His album “Vuelve” won Best Latin Pop Album at the 41st Grammy Awards and he was praised by his idols Sting and Madonna.
Ricky Martin’s streak continued with his first Spanglish album “Ricky Martin” which was released in 1999. The album has been certified platinum seven times and has sold more than 22 million copies worldwide. It peaked at #1 on the Billboard 200 in 1999 and major hit “Livin’ La Vida Loca” helped him crossover into the English-speaking music industry. It is Martin’s most popular song to date; I mean who doesn’t default to “Livin’ la Vida Loca” on karaoke night? All jokes aside, Ricky Martin’s success allowed other Latin artists to crossover into the English market such as Jennifer Lopez and Enrique Iglesias.
Martin’s first completely English album “Sound Loaded” was released in November 2000 and the hits “She Bangs” and “Nobody Wants to Be Lonely” charted at #1 on the Hot Latin Songs.
Ricky Martin cites Michael Jackson, Cher, Barbara Streisand, and Madonna as his musical influences. He also admires all genres of Latin music from salsa to merengue and looks up to Latin singers Celia Cruz and Gilberto Santa Rosa. Recently, Martin has appeared as a coach on popular reality singing show “The Voice” both in Australia and in Mexico.

Putting the Latin spark in pop, there’s none who do it quite like Ricky Martin. Latin music moves you and Martin makes sure that if you’re seated you’ll soon be on your feet dancing away until you can no longer feel your feet. With his natural charm and charisma oozing from every pore, thousands of women swoon at sight of his thrusting hips and body shaking through “Shake Your Bon Bon” and “She Bangs”. Suavely dressed from head to toe in white, black leather fingerless gloves on, he commands the stage whilst showing off his incredible vocal capabilities in “Vuelve” citing as his favourite song that he’s ever written. An opportunistic moment to see Martin standing still on stage, clutching the mic stand with smoke rising around his feet. You don’t need to be able to understand Spanish to really feel the sentiments attached to this song as Martin pours out his heart and soul. No matter how many performances he’s done, it feels like every show is his first with his undying gratitude as he is overwhelmed by the audience’s reception. Bringing the tempo back to maximum with trumpets completed with Latin dancers who samba across the stage for classic “Livin La Vida Loca”. With Martin’s natural flair and talent on display is no surprise why audiences are mesmerised.

I have been a fan of Ricky Martin for most of my life and seeing him in concert is always amazing!! My husband and I had tickets to his first and second shows in Puerto Rico for the Movimiento Tour. Buying the tickets through Ticketera was not a great process. I have attended several of Ricky’s previous concerts and it all went much smoother. Hard to get tickets I wanted and then tickets sold to me that were not the ones I purchased. Plus I had to purchase the first set at midnight, it was very odd. Fortunately customer service was good, but the whole buying process was not great. The first night we had VIP Hot Sound tickets. We did not get information for arrival time until the day before. A few days notice would be better. The VIP Hot Sound was amazing, better than previous years. Our seats were not great, and wish we had more control over where we sat. The second night we were a few rows back, but center and the seats were fantastic. The concert itself was wonderful and so much fun. It had a lot of the aspects of the All In show in Las Vegas. We would have attended the 3rd night but had already purchased airfare, so we could not change it. Hope Ricky tours in the states, would love to see him perform, again and again!!

Hi, we are summoned to 15:15 to enter the soundcheck, I was the first person to arrive at 15:00 hours he leaves a person of the producer giving notice that entry be delayed at 17:00 hours, I already had almost 4 hours waiting in the street, sun, without the option of a bath or to eat something.
When the person started handing out the VIP ticket "Disparo al Corazón" made another row, creating clutter of all. Then the distribution of ticket for "La Mordidita" was made. I felt that the whole process was very messy, there was no respect for the arrival time, an order never led, if not the opposite.
When we entered the ludicrously test you asked to be from the 4th row back, and people shot to the heart, in the front rows, I think it should exist a little more respect, no call VIP to a situation that VIP had no absolutely nothing, we moved from side to side, rows in the sun, and without further information from the producer. After all the chaos caused by the production company, I entered the last, being that had been there more than 5 hours, waiting to see for less than 20 minutes in a row 8, behind a whole group who had the opportunity to buy a ticket and then higher value could be with him.

Ricky Martin, an icon of the 1990s and a master of his own unique blend of pop, rock and latino is as relevant now as ever. Despite often being noted for airing on the side of novelty, his record sales would quieten the most negative of critic as he has sold over 90 million records globally.
Now a one man party onstage, he is an indescribable showman who knows how to whip his audience into frenzy with a quick swing of his hips. From the introduction to 'Será será', Martin and his army of dancers delight crowds with a mixture of latino pop and complex dance routines. Making his way around his stage set-up to jam with his tight backing band, there is a huge emphasis of fun during the show.
Plus when he brings out the A-list hits such as 'She Bangs' the cheers from the audience could violate many noise pollution laws. 'Livin' la Vida Loca' is the most nostalgic track of the night yet Ricky showcasing his vocal during 'I Am' receives even bigger applause. Martin proves through his live show that he is not only a singer but a performer in every sense of the word.

Hace casi 36 años que sigo a Ricky Martín, tremendo artista! Siempre se supera a el mismo. Su show es un deleite de principio a fin. Las luces, el escenario, sus bailarines, sus músicos! Todo es wow y no se puede dejar de nombrar! De Ricky que decir que no se haya dicho antes? Su energía, su impronta, su voz, la presencia que tiene en el escenario, la felicidad que transmite! Su belleza, Su paz... Este show para mi, maravilloso! Los vídeos (el que tiene repaso de sus vídeos históricos me hizo llorar) son tantos recuerdos! Y los viejos temas! Bombón de azúcar! Nunca hay que dejar de ver sus conciertos. Como dije una vez, lo llevo en el alma y en la piel, y así será por siempre! #orgullosadesertufan #siempremimejoreleccion @ricky_martin (hashtags hechos por mi) Instagram: @valgrecco

fue todo una estafa. no se si es responsabilidad de la pagina que vende las entradas o de la productora nacional pero nos vendieron unas entradas en una ubicacion y nos dieron otras. cuando compre el paquete la mordidita se me mostraba una ubicacion en la quinta fila al lado del pasillo central. cuando fui al recital estaba en la fila 12 casi llegando a la pared derecha. los asientos tenian dos numeraciones, como si hubieran agregado filas adelante de las que ya estaban. TODOS los de adelante habian pagado la mitad de lo que yo pague!FUE UNA VERGUENZA. NO VOLVERE A COMPRAR UN PAQUETE VIP EN MI VIDA. y creo que si bien la pagina no es la responsable es la que muestra el mapa del lugar y por ello debe asegurarse de vender las ubicaciones reales y mediar para que no se estafe a la gente..

Perfect show! I saw it three times these year and it was fantastic . The only bad thing in ROSARIO was the big quantities of "persons" that enter to the show without tickets. I payed for a vip and the first places like File 4 and there the guards added chairs (10 or20) at the beginning of the show when the lights go down.I asked and the guards told me that they added because it were "new chairs" call them "agregadas" .I took photos and put it on twitter because i couldn't believe what i were sawing!!! It never happened before in a Ricky Martin show!! Only in Rosario . shamed!!!
Despite that The show and Ricky were wonderfull

It was my first time seeing Ricky Martin live and it won't be my last! It was a magnificent show, full of glamour and good music. And Ricky Martin demonstrated that he is more than a good-looking Latin singer, he's a real showman.
It's impossible to pick one single moment from the show, but I will cherish forever the one in which he talked to the audience, thanking for everything they've given him in all the years he's been coming to Argentina to offer his art. And the most intimate part of the show, in which he sang some of his most romantic hits.
I'm already looking forward to seeing his next concert!

The show was awesome, Ricky...He's always getting better and better, it's been the third time I see his concert in the same year, and it's never the same concert, he makes you feel surprised every time. Not to mention that he makes you fell in love with him over and over again. Love you, Ricky, can't be objective with him. To sum up, the concert and his shows are always the best.
