Niurka Marcos
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Niurka Marcos (born Niurka Marcos Calle on November 25, 1967 in Havana, Cuba) is a Cuban-Mexican singer, dancer, actress, and erotic model. She is better known simply as Niurka.
She was a little-known actress in Cuba. Marcos already had a son when she moved to Mexico, whom she left behind to look for a better future.
In Mexico, she had mild success acting in Telenovela with Televisa, until she met producer Juan Osorio. Marcos and Osorio began dating in 1998.
Marcos then became a star in many of Osorio's productions. They moved in together and had children.
Marcos and Osorio were planning to get married in February of 2004. Early in January, however, she revealed to the Mexican media, and the Latin American media in the United States, that she had been having an affair with her Velo de Novia co-star Bobby Larios, and that she was leaving Osorio for Larios. The news caused a wide-spread scandal, and Marcos has not spared Osorio from public insult, blaming the break-up on, among other things, lack of sexual relations between the two.
On February 19 of 2004, Marcos and Larios got married in Mexico City. Later in the year, it was revealed that Marcos and Larios would star in a reality show based on their home lives.
In 2006 it was announced that the couple had broken up. Their divorce was finalized on June 28, 2006.
Niurka appeared as a supporting actress on La fea más bella during 2006 and sang on its soundtrack album.
Niurka Marcos has also released a CD, named Niurka.
During her latest stay in Mexico City, she posed for the February 2007 issue of Mexico Playboy Magazine.
