Becky G to Join 2026 Billboard Latin Music Week for Exclusive Superstar Q&A

Becky G has officially joined the lineup for 2026 Billboard Latin Music Week for an exclusive Superstar Q&A, Billboard announced Friday (Oct. 2).

Following the release of her fifth studio album Baraja Bendita, which debuted at No. 2 on Billboard‘s Top Latin Pop Albums chart, and her 2026 Latin Grammy nomination for song of the year as the songwriter of Santana’s “Mi Gran Amor,” Becky will take center stage at Billboard Latin Music Week, which returns to the iconic Faena Forum in Miami Beach from Oct. 19-22.

The Mexican-American superstar joins a star-studded lineup that includes Anuel AA, Greeicy, Jay Wheeler, Jessi Uribe, Kany García, Lola Índigo, Maluma, Mau y Ricky, Paola Jara, Pitbull, Quevedo, RaiNao, Rawayana, Ryan Castro, Trueno, Zhamira and many more.

Since her music breakthrough in the mid-2010s, Becky G has solidified her position as one of the most prominent voices in Latin pop, captivating a global audience across languages, genres and cultures. The multiplatinum singer, songwriter, entrepreneur and activist has amassed over 28 billion global streams and earned six Latin Grammy nominations, an Oscar nomination, a Billboard Music Award, and accolades from the American Music Awards, Latin American Music Awards and E! People’s Choice Awards. In 2025, she was included in TIME100 Next, which recognizes emerging leaders shaping the future across multiple industries.

Becky has evolved as an artist while staying deeply connected to her Mexican-American roots. Her 2023 album ESQUINAS debuted at No. 3 on Billboard‘s Top Regional Mexican Albums chart and earned her a Latin Grammy nomination for the track “Por El Contrario.” Her follow-up set, ENCUENTROS, debuted at No. 7 on the Top Latin Albums chart, while her most recent release, Baraja Bendita, debuted at No. 2 on Top Latin Pop Albums in August of this year.

The 17-track album — which features singles like “EPA,” “Marathon” and “Patrona” — bridges Becky G (the artist) and Rebbeca (her real name) as a musical symbol of duality, ownership and the freedom to exist fully without contradiction.

“It’s about trusting myself enough to stop choosing between different parts of who I am,” she said in a statement then. “For so long, people wanted to define me by one thing: one language, one sound, one version of myself. This album isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about fully owning every part of who I’ve always been.”

Beyond music, Becky has expanded her influence in fashion, film and culture. She has collaborated with renowned international designers, performed at Coachella and acted in productions including Power Rangers, Empire and DC’s Blue Beetle. In 2024, during the Academy Awards, she performed her Oscar-nominated song “The Fire Inside” from the film Flamin’ Hot. At the same time, her commitment to representation and community remains a central element of her work, both on and off the stage.

With more than 30 years of history, Billboard Latin Music Week is the world’s largest and most significant gathering of Latin artists and industry executives. This year, the event will once again feature panels, thought-provoking conversations, roundtables, networking opportunities and activations, along with the celebrated Billboard En Vivo performances. Tickets are available now at BillboardLatinMusicWeek.com.

Billboard Latin Music Week coincides with the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Awards, which will air live Thursday, Oct. 22, on Telemundo and Peacock.
