Lupe Fuentes, also aliased Little Lupe, Zuleidy, Zuleidy Lapiedra (born 27 January 1987 in Santiago de Cali, Colombia)[2][3] is a Spanish-Colombian former[4] pornographic actress, singer and dancer.[5]
Early life
Fuentes lived in Cali, Colombia and Madrid, Spain under very poor circumstances. Her single mother had no home or a job, so Fuentes wore clothing from charities at a local church and slept at the houses of her mother's friends.[6] She dropped out of school so she could work and help her mother.[6]
The Ex-Girlfriends
Lupe is the lead singer of the pop group "The Ex-Girlfriends", formed in September or October 2012.[4] It has released two singles: "We Are The Party" released on November 6, 2012[7] and "Whatchya Looking At?" released on 18 March 2013.[8] The two singles were aggressively promoted with pop-up ads, which automatically loaded the YouTube videos for each song (and hence contributed to the YouTube view count).[9][10]
In 2013, a second official YouTube account, "xgfmusic," was created, apparently as a mirror of the still-active original account ("xgfparty") – it contains duplicates of the main content, and was possibly intended to counterbalance the high ratio of dislikes to likes in the virally promoted music videos.[11]
