Paulina Rubio is about to get real…
The 41-year-old Mexican singer has signed on to appear in an English-language docu-series for Bunim/Murray Prods.’s new division, BMP Latin, which will focus on developing unscripted and scripted programming for Hispanic audiences, as well as adapting the company’s unscripted formats for Spanish-language and bilingual audiences in the U.S.
Rubio’s docu-series will explore the professional and personal life of the multi-hyphenate Latin superstar —a singer, actor, model and Mexican business woman who has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide. The series will offer an intimate look at how she balances fame and her life as a first-time mother.
But Rubio isn’t the only Latin artist getting a reality series…
Daddy Yankee will star in a Spanish-language reality series set in the world of Latin urban music. The show will offer an inside look at the life of the man who brought reggaeton to the United States, his wife/manager Mireddys González and their growing roster of artists.
Meanwhile, BMP Latin will produce an English-language docu-series about the Leonardo Lopez family, Mexican Americans living the American dream in Encino, California, which has been called the “Beverly Hills of the Valley.” Owners of the successful El Mariachi restaurant chain, Pico Rivera Sports Arena, and fashion brand Pink Horses, this family works hard and plays hard, spending their weekends competing in Charrería rodeo competitions. Set in Los Angeles, the No. 1 Hispanic market in the United States, the docu-series will offer a look at the ultimate subculture.
