Latin music’s biggest pop group breaks its 15-year silence.
“I’m willing to bet this will be the most successful Latin tour this year in terms of gross and tickets sold,” Schafer predicts. “They are beating records in multiple territories in a way no other act has ever done. It’s spectacular.”In mid August, at the Galen Center in Los Angeles during a break in the act’s dress rehearsal, we sat down with Anahí, Dulce María, Christian, Maité and Christopher for their first in-person interview as RBD in 15 years.
Dulce María There were two moments for me. We performed at el Zócalo in Mexico City, and people went crazy. I remember they had to take us out of there in ambulances and police cars. That’s when it really dawned on us, because we were taping the series from Monday to Saturday, and we never left the studios. That day, we realized something big was happening.
As a mother, I love that you’re moms and you’re on tour and you’re bringing the family with you. I understand there’s a whole daycare traveling with you. It must feel so different. When RBD first became popular, I think none of us realized how tough it was for you. You had a very harsh contract. Do you ever look back and think, “That was hard”?
Maité They’re different stages, and it’s important to underline that back then, we were kids with dreams and RBD became the platform to make them a reality. Also, speaking about our old songs has made us realize that 20 years later, it’s still relevant to sing about love. Pop hasn’t died. Perhaps there was no one to sing it.
Christopher In my case, I went for a ’70s look. And I also love the ’60s and the ’80s. And I wear sneakers because I think like an athlete onstage.
