Celia Lorena Herrera de la Vega (born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico), known professionally as Lorena Herrera, is a Mexican singer and actress.[1]
Lorena moved with her family to Mexico City, where she began a career as a fashion model. She became highly successful in Mexico, and gained an international reputation, posing for advertisements in Mexico and South America. As a model, she won the "Look of the Year" contest, awarded in Mexico.
Lorena then began working in Mexico's low-budget films. She has been involved in more than seventy-five films since she began her career as an actress in soap operas.
She also has created six music albums, of which five are studio albums, and one is an album of remixes named Soy (Remix), released in 1997.
For her work in the motion picture and recording industries as well as television, Herrera's handprints were embedded onto the Paseo de las Luminarias in 2012.
Lorena Herrera met producer Emilio Larrosa, who had Televisa connections. Larrosa gave her a chance to star in his telenovela production Muchachitas" ("Young Girls"), which was a huge hit across Latin America.
She was then hired to participate in the mega-hit telenovela Dos Mujeres, un Camino, where she played the mistress of a villain.
Herrera has since acted in many other telenovelas, including El Premio Mayor. She is also a singer, having released various Mexican music CDs and toured Mexico and the United States. She has been approached by Playboy Mexico to pose nude for that magazine (she appeared in the Mexican Playboy in the December 1987 issue, under the name "Bárbara Ferrat"). She has also released various calendars in which she assumed sensual poses, and she posed naked for Playboy again in March 2011 at 44 years of age.[2]
On the Univision show El Gordo y la Flaca, Lorena shared a bathtub with "El Gordo", Raul De Molina.
She worked as the evil stepmother of Lola (Monserrat) in Lola...Erase Una Vez. She is the mother of Grettell Valdez which interprets Carlota in Lola and she is also the mother of Zoraida Gomez in the soap opera Lola.
She has said that she likes singing, but acting is her favorite activity.
She has worked with Carla Estrada, Emilio Larosa, Pedro Damian and other producers.
She said recently on the Mentiras y Verdades show that she did not like to make novelas with Emilio Larrosa after El Premio Mayor told her that her part was going to be the antagonist.
