[edit] BiographyAlfonso "Poncho" Herrera Rodríguez was born in Mexico City.[1] He attended to The Edron Academy, a prestiguos high class British school, alongside Gael Garcia Bernal and Ximena Sariñana and graduated in 2002. Herrera originally wanted to become a pilot and was going to move to San Antonio, Texas to enroll in an aviation school. He changed his mind and decided to enroll at the Centro de Educación Artística run by Latin American media giant Televisa.[1] [edit] Acting careerFollowing his completion at the Centro de Educación Artística, Herrera began working professionally in theater. He performed in Las Brujas de Salem (2001), Como matar a un ruiseñor (2001) and Antigona (2001).

Herrera played Miguel Arango, a teenager who moves to Mexico City in order to get revenge for his father's death. Rebelde was a hit worldwide and had over 400 episodes, lasting from 2004-2006. Following the success of Rebelde, in 2007, Televisa released RBD: La Familia, which starred the members of RBD. The characters of the sitcom were not based on the band's characters in Rebelde, but intended to be similar to the actors' real personalities. RBD: La Familia was the first Mexican show shot entirely in High Definition. The show ran from March 14, 2007 – June 13, 2007, and only lasted 13 episodes. In 2007 Herrera began filming Volverte a Ver with Ximenna Herrera. It was released in December 2008. The movie was filmed in Mexico and Argentina.[2] In 2008, he also starred in the play The Pillowman, replacing actor Kuno Becker.[3][4] In 2009, he began filming Venezzia in Venezuela, alongside Ruddy Rodríguez.[5] Release date: September, 25 On May 21, 2009 it was announced that Herrera would star alongside Spanish Mexican singer/actress Belinda Peregrín in Televisa's latest novela, Camaleones.[6] Herrera will play Sebastián, a professor who steals expensive art work.[7] Sherlyn and Pee Wee are also in talks to sign on to the novela.[6] Camaleones is set to air in July, replacing Verano de Amor.

To date RBD has made 9 studio albums, including albums in Spanish, Portuguese and English. They have sold over 15 million albums worldwide, and have toured across Mexico, South America, Serbia, Romania, the United States and Spain. On August 15, 2008, RBD released a message telling fans that they had decided to split up. They went on one final tour, Gira Del Adios World Tour which ended in early 2009. In a November 2008 interview with Open Magazine, Herrera said he has no intention of having a solo singing career after RBD and that he does not see himself as a singer.[8] [edit] Personal lifeIn October 2008, it was rumored that Herrera had an alleged child named Luca[9], Herrera spoke with reporters from the Mexican talk show En Los Expectaculos and said that if he had a child he would not hide it, and that the woman making the accusations is just a crazed fan. In March 2006, a man accused Herrera of stealing his luggage at Mexico City International Airport.[10] No charges were filed because it was determined that Herrera had confused his luggage with the other passenger's and taken it by mistake.[10] On July 13, 2006, Herrera won the Esta Buenismo and El De Mejor Estilo awards during the Premios Juventud award show which aired on Univision. He also won awards at that show with his group RBD. Alfonso and his fellow RBD band mate, Dulce María, had an on-again off-again relationship from 2002 to 2005.
