Diego Schoening

Diego Schoening was born on August 5, 1969, in Mexico City. His career began at an early age in 1981 when he joined the Mexican pop group Timbiriche. He remained a member of the band throughout its initial successful run, recording 19 albums before its disbandment in 1994. During this period, Schoening also expanded his artistic endeavors into acting, appearing in numerous telenovelas and films. His early television roles included “Acompañame” (1977), “Nosotras las Mujeres” (1981), “La Pasion de Isabela” (1984), and “Angélica” (1985), among others. He was also involved in musical theatre productions such as “La maravilla de crecer” (1980) and “Jesucristo Superestrella” (1982).

Following Timbiriche’s disbandment, Schoening transitioned into a solo music career. In 1998, he reunited with former Timbiriche members Paulina Rubio, Alix Bauer, Erik Rubin, Sasha Sokol, Mariana Garza, and Benny Ibarra for reunion projects. The following year, in 1999, he released his debut solo album, “Voy a mí.” His acting work continued with roles in telenovelas like “Muchachitas” (1991), “Agujetas de color de rosa” (1994), “Confidente de secundaria” (1996), and “Soñadoras” (1998). Parallel to his musical and acting pursuits, Schoening became a television host, presenting shows such as “Nuevas Tardes,” “Hoy,” and “Super Sabado,” and served as a vocal coach for “Te regalo mi cancion” (2005). He also won three Emmy Awards during his career for his work as an actor, singer, and TV host.

His career saw a significant resurgence with additional Timbiriche reunions. He rejoined the group in 2007 to commemorate their 25th anniversary, participating in albums like “Timbiriche 25” and “Somos Timbiriche 25.” In 2009, he released his second solo album, “Lo que soy.” Beyond entertainment, Schoening has also established himself as a motivational speaker, delivering conferences on topics such as positive and negative influences on youth and anti-addiction campaigns. He has served as a spokesperson for various advertising campaigns for brands including Ace Procter & Gamble, Codet Aris Vision, Nokia, and Umano Cards.
