Luis Miguel Career
 The details of his personal life are somewhat unclear. Luis Miguel was originally thought to have been born in Mexico, as he grew up in the state of Veracruz. However, in the early 1980s it was reported in the press that he had actually been born in Puerto Rico during a brief stay in the island by his parents. After it became public knowledge that he was born in Puerto Rico, the Mexican government granted him citizenship. It is unclear whether he has also maintained his American citizenship, although court records related to an incident in Aspen, Colorado on January 3, 2006 tend to point that he is, also, a U.S. citizen.
He is the son of the late Spanish singer Luis Gallego Sanchez, known as Luisito Rey, who geared him, since a very early age, to follow the footsteps, and career pattern of american superstar Elvis Presley, and Italian-born actress Marcella Basteri. Luis Miguel's mother disappeared some time in 1987 and her whereabouts are unknown. He has two younger brothers, Sergio and Alejandro, whom he supports financially
