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]
Controversy
In 2009, a man was arrested in Puerto Rico for the possession of child pornography discovered during an airport search. He had a DVD called "Little Lupe the Innocent" in his possession and was arrested because federal agents thought that Lupe was underage. His case went to trial and a pediatrician testifying for the prosecution claimed that Lupe had to be underage because of her appearance. Lawyers for the defense, however, found Lupe's website and contacted her, and sent her a subpoena so she could testify. She showed her passport in court and proved that she was 19 years old when the movie was made, and he was cleared of all charges.[7]
A warrant was reportedly issued for her arrest in 2011 by Interpol on behalf of the Colombian government in connection with a child pornography investigation into the activities of her ex-husband, Pablo Lapiedra. Fuentes was accused of recruiting underage girls and falsifying documents for them to appear in his movies.[8][9][10]
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[11] and "Whatchya Looking At?" released on 18 March 2013.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).
