Anonymous writes 'Ever since
Paulina Rubio dethroned Thalia
back in 2000 as the Queen of
Latin Pop, Thalia has done
nothing else but to follow
Paulina's footsteps. They both
released an album that year,
but Paulina's over shadowed
Thalia everywhere: on the
radio, on TV, on awards
ceremonies, at clubs, etc...
Paulina released her
self-titled album 'Paulina'
and Thalia released
'Arrasando.' After Paulina's
first single was released,
everyone quickly forgot about
Thalia's album, and 'Paulina'
became a global hit and was
the biggest selling album on
Billboard's Latin chart.

Thalia's next move was to
release a self-titled album
like Paulina to make it more
personal and help get her back
in mainstream. She made sure
it had the same producers as
Paulina's hit album. 'Thalia'
(her second self-titled album)
had only mild success. It
wasn't anything out of this
world. Next, Emi, Thalia's
company, kept releasing albums
after albums every year to
remind the public about
Thalia's old hits, but too
many greatest hits albums were
damaging for the artist. The
public got tired and were not
responding.

Paulina released an English
album in 2002 titled 'Border
Girl' and it achieved Gold
certification in the U.S. and
worldwide it had some success.
She was in magazine covers all
over the world and it made her
the second most photographed
female in Mexico next to Salma
Hayek. It gave her the
opportunity to achieve a wider
audience and be more
international (she was already
international with her Spanish
album). Then in 2003, Thalia
released her English album
'Thalia' (third self-titled
album) and it tanked. Her
website assured a 'full
impact' but it was nothing
more than a dull impact.

The next year in 2004, Thalia
had planned to release yet
another 'Greatest Hits' album
in late March, but after
Paulina's album had a release
date, Thalia changed hers for
the same date as Paulina's.
Big mistake! Not only was
Paulina's album #1 on
Billboard's Top Latin Album
chart, her single 'Te Quise
Tanto' had surpassed Thalia's
single and was also #1 that
same week. Paulina's album has
remained on the charts for
months, while Thalia's album
quickly disappeared off the
charts. It has received
various nominations across the
world such as a nomination for
the American Music Awards, a
nomination for the Latin
Grammy Awards, and one for
Grammy Awards. 'Pau-Latina'
was produced by producers all
over Latin America, and it was
composed of different Latin
sounds and beats. Thalia is
planning to release another
Spanish album in 2005, and she
is also planning to get
producers from across Latin
America.

While Paulina is climbing up
farther than Thalia, Thalia is
slowly following Paulina but
her efforts are not up to
Paulina's level. If Thalia
doesn't concentrate on being
original, her popularity will
continue to go down. Not only
is she losing her fan base in
music, she is also losing her
connection with the general
Latin public. Notice how her
magazine and clothing line at
K-mart have also bombed!'
