This multi-talented sensation not only sings, dances and plays piano, but literally sets the stage on fire with her African drum riffs–her drumsticks are set ablaze. She will tear up the stage performing her own popular tunes (and possibly one or two songs by Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple or The Doors). A glamorous, uninhibited Latin dynamo, she returns to the concert touring stage during 2005. The song "Everyone Is Looking at Me," which she said is based on a friend's experience, was a favorite at sold-out shows during Trevi's recent tour of major gay clubs from New York to Los Angeles.Gloria Trevi, Mexico’s white-hot, controversial rock phenomenon, burst into the spotlight and hasn’t stopped yet. She has become a vocal defender of the gay community. On Monday, she returned to the Chihuahua prison where she was held and handed out toys and medicine to inmate mothers. Trevi has also started a foundation, named Ana Dalai after her baby that died, to provide money and support to jailed mothers, saying she has firsthand knowledge of their difficulties. She's even managed to strike a fine balance between her rebel girl image and her new life as an activist mother, broadening her appeal. "My fans like the rebel in me," she said in a recent interview. She still lets loose on stage, grabbing her crotch and cracking whips. And although she has tamed her wild lioness mane and toned down her raunchy image - doing away with ripped tights - Trevi hasn't lost her spunk. Trevi no longer talks about her time in jail, but the experience transformed her from a Mexican teen idol into an international star with fans in their 20s and 30s. Last year, she gave birth to her second son, Miguel Armando, and says she may have more children. The 38-year-old singer, who has always maintained her innocence, left jail with her son Angel Gabriel, now 4, and the memory of losing a baby girl who died shortly after being born there.
