“Like teen sensations before them ”” think *NSYNC or the Backstreet Boys ”” Mexican pop group RBD has climbed to the top with its fresh sound, cute looks and timeless appeal to teen desires. But behind the scenes, other critical factors played a key role in RBD’s rise. The group, which began as a music spinoff from the soap opera “Rebelde” in late 2004, has become one of the hottest-selling acts in Latin music. Since July 2005, three of the group’s albums ”” “Rebelde,” “Nuestro Amor” and “RBD: Live in Hollywood” ”” have not only scaled the Top Latin Albums chart but also crossed over to success on the Billboard 200. The group has sold more than 7.8 million albums in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Since launching a U.S. tour in March, the group has reported more than $13 million in ticket sales to Billboard Boxscore.
So how did RBD get so hot, so fast?”
