Mini bio

From Montevideo to Buenos Aires.

Natalia started in advertising at 12 and moved to Buenos Aires at 16 to pursue acting. In a 2017 El País interview, she recalled living in a rented room and going after a dream with her family’s support.

Two paths meet.

Her music career grew out of Un argentino en Nueva York: recording “Que sí, que sí” led to an album offer. In 1998, Muñeca brava became her television breakthrough. She later described it as the role that opened the way to audiences in Russia and Eastern Europe.

Songs and screen characters.

Her albums include Natalia Oreiro, Tu veneno and Turmalina. Playing Gilda in the 2016 biographical film brought her acting and singing together again. She went on to portray Eva Perón in Santa Evita and continues to release music alongside her screen work, including songs made with Ale Sergi and Ricardo Mollo.

Beyond the stage.

UNICEF named her an ambassador for the Río de la Plata in 2011. Her work with the organization promotes children’s rights in Uruguay and Argentina.
