Informations supplémentaires:
Jorge Alberto Negrete Moreno (1911–1953) was a Mexican singer and actor. Negrete was born in the city of Guanajuato and had two brothers and three sisters. Jorge went to the United States and in 1932 recorded several operas using the stage-name Alberto Moreno. He collaborated with Xavier Cugat, earned bookings at Latin clubs, met his first wife (dancer Elisa Christy), and connected with cinematographer Ramón Peon, who cast Negrete in his first film, La Madrina del Diablo (The Devil's Godmother) in 1937. He went on to make 37 other films. After working in Havana and Hollywood, Negrete was called to act in ¡Ay Jalisco, No Te Rajes! ("Hey Jalisco, Don’t Back Down!") which made him an international Latin star and helped formulate the charro film genre. Negrete was one of the founders, and the most important leaders, of the Mexican Actors Association. He died on Dec 5, 1953 (at the age of 42) during a business trip to Los Angeles, California. His death was caused by the hepatitis C he had contracted during his youth. He was buried in Mexico City, and more than 50 years after his death, he is still a top icon in Mexico, Spain, and Latin America.
