“

Stephanie Salas expresó su preocupación por la sobredosis de alcohol que sufrió su prima Frida Sofía que la llevó a hospitalizarse y el efecto moral que puede tener en su madre Alejandra Guzmán, quien se encuentra de gira en Sudamérica.”*

Lo cierto es que debido a esta ausencia de Alejandra Guzmán por visitar a su hija Frida, los rumores a puntan a que probablemente la cantante este hospitalizada.

Según su sitio oficial, Alejandra Guzmán se encuentra en Puerto Rico, sin embargo los medios en ese país no tienen noticia de esto. “*

Alejandra Guzmán was shocked to learn that her daugher Frida Sofía, was admitted into the emergency room in Mexico City for allegedly overdosing on pills and alcohol. “*

Mexican rock/pop singer says Alejandra Guzmán says that on her new CD “Fuerza” she learned that the best way to help yourself is to help others.

“I have been through so much, from surviving cancer and alcoholism, that I feel if I can help someone else, I am more than happy to do it,” she said in her native Spanish during a recent interview.

Guzmán was in a refreshing good mood. Her latest CD “Fuerza,” has just been awarded gold and platinum awards for top sales in Mexico. “*

Alejandra Guzmán ayer hizo una entrada muy espectacular en helicóptero al concierto de “Los 40 principales”, lo que causó el delirio del público del Estadio Azteca, y es que ahora “la reina de corazones” se siente más fuerte que nunca.

“La fuerza tiene un significado importante para mí, porque sin ella no podría haber llegado a donde he llegado, ni hubiera podido salir de tantos problemas y salir adelante”, externó.”*
