Childhood & Early Life

Thalía was born Ariadna Thalía Sodi Miranda, on August 26, 1971, in Mexico City, Mexico. She is the youngest daughter of her parents. She was born into a well-settled Mexican upper middle-class family. Her mother, Yolanda Miranda, was an esteemed painter, and her father, Ernesto Sodi Pallares, was a scientist, criminologist, pathologist, and writer.

Thalía was the youngest of the five children in the family and was heavily influenced by her mother to pursue art. Her parents knew a lot of people in the entertainment industry, and this led Thalía to make her first-ever TV appearance when she was just a year old. Her first commercial was for a major Mexican brand.

Observing her interest in music and arts, her mother got her enrolled at the ‘National Conservatory of Music of Mexico’ when she was 4 years old. Thalía started taking piano and dance lessons there.

When she was 6 years old, she was faced with a major tragedy. She lost her father to a prolonged sickness. She was extremely close to her father and found it difficult to get over his death.
