The beginning

Jenni Rivera was born on July 2, 1969 in Long Beach, California. She had her first child at the age of fifteen. When she was 18 Jenni had two children and was a single mother. She was struggling and didn't have money or food to feed her family. One day Jenni made the decision to go to collage and get a degree while her mother took care of her kids. Jenni became a business woman.
Don Pedro Rivera, Jenni's father, was also part of the business world. Don Pedro Rivera introduced her daughter to the traditional Mexican music. He always wanted for his daughter to become an artist, but she would always say reject the idea because she didn't like the life that famous people would lived. In 1992 she did her first recording. That was her gift to her father. Jenni Rivera was married three times and had five children.
