00:00Miriam, at what age did you start singing?
00:0310 years old?
00:05I started singing at 4 years old in my house.
00:07Because I already knew I wanted to be a singer.
00:10You always knew you wanted to be a singer?
00:12Yes, I never imagined I would be a doctor, a teacher, whatever.
00:17No, a singer and that I was going to travel.
00:19I was going to record records, I said.
00:22Because the whole family of my father sang.
00:25My grandfather, my grandmother, my aunts, my uncles.
00:27My parents got married at 18 years old.
00:29So we went to live at my grandparents' house.
00:31And I was the first granddaughter, first daughter, first niece.
00:33And everyone influenced me in their musical style.
00:37Nobody was a professional, but it was the taste for music.
00:40And I said, I'm going to be a singer.
00:42You see, they are children who are clear and then execute and develop what they had in mind when they were very young.
00:47On television I started at 12 years old.
00:49How was your first excursion to television? Tell me a little bit.
00:52At 10 years old I participated in a festival.
00:5411 years old at a school festival.
00:56Where everyone was older than me.
00:58And an uncle took me, hidden from my parents.
01:01Because my mom didn't want me to sing.
01:03You were too little to perform on a stage?
01:05Exactly, so I wanted her to study nothing more.
01:07And that she didn't distract me for any reason in anything else.
01:10And then this uncle took me, hidden.
01:12He spoke to the people who were obviously testing the competitors.
01:16And they said, how old are you? 11 years old.
01:19No, no, no, this is for people over 15.
01:22And my uncle said, but listen to her.
01:24And then I start singing a Lolita song at that time.
01:27And I was listening to Spanish music.
01:30And I sing and he looks at me and says, what's your name?
01:33And they registered me.
01:35And I won that festival.
01:36But my uncle called my dad when I told him.
01:38Your first festival, you won it.
01:39I won it, yes.
01:40That is, it is already debut, but spectacular.
01:42With the right foot, yes.
01:44And then when did you enter television?
01:46I entered television the following year.
01:48I started going to lots of festivals.
01:50The watermelon festival, the rice festival, the poroto, whatever.
01:54And then I do an audition for a music teacher that I had.
02:00That I tell you that I adore, Mónica Meya.
02:02Daughter of Maestro Meya, with whom I also studied piano.
02:05And then she tells me about the audition that I was going to see on another television channel.
02:10And I'm doing the line.
02:12And the one who had to test me was Maite Montenegro.
02:15Look how the stories cross each other.
02:17Look how they cross each other.
02:18Maite has an extraordinary eye.
02:20Tremendous, that's why I say she is my mentor.
02:23You have her up there.
02:25I love her, I love her.
02:26She is brilliant, this woman.
02:27She is brilliant.
02:28And to this day, how she is absolutely active, current, modern.
02:32Her thinking regarding the stages, shows and everything.
02:37And then she tests me and leaves me.
02:39And then I already participated in that section of the program, which was Pepito TV.
02:43I can't believe it, Pepito TV.
02:46And we had Fernando here and he told an extraordinary joke of five minutes.
02:50The jokes of Fernando are fantastic.
02:54Spectacular.
02:55And that's where my career starts.
02:58On television.
03:00I was still a little girl.
03:02You were combining this with school.
03:03And what did your parents say when you went to the casting and started to spend a lot more time on TV?
03:09Did they demand your grades?
03:10Yes.
03:11They told me that if I didn't do well in school, I wouldn't be able to sing.
03:17And so I worked very hard.
03:19I studied Ponte Tu from 8 in the morning until 2 in the afternoon.
03:22Classes already?
03:23Classes.
03:24When I started on television, it was in pair productions.
03:27The rehearsals were from 3.30 to 12 at night.
03:30Because we had a series of choreographies and so on.
03:33And you wanted to study, look.
03:34And I studied.
03:35My mom would pick me up at Ponte Tu and I would arrive at school at 12.30.
03:39Imagine finishing at 11.
03:41Maybe I exaggerated a little.
03:42From 12 to 3 in the morning, my mom would give me coffee and she would study with me.
03:47And my mom would say, my God, poor daughter, I don't want you to do this.
03:50She tried to convince me to stop singing.
03:56And you were convinced to continue.
03:58Yes.
03:59What happens when you get to Sábado Gigante?
04:00Because in Sábado Gigante, at the beginning, you don't win anything for months.
04:06And in the end, you win everything.
04:08It's very particular because it's also a prize for perseverance and learning to develop a career.
04:12Tell us a little bit.
04:13Look, I had started.
04:14I had been called because there was a soap opera on Channel 7, on TVN.
04:20It was...
04:22Oh, I forgot.
04:23I forget things, Martín.
04:25Don't worry.
04:26Me too.
04:27And I often forget the things I want to forget.
04:30That's right.
04:31Blocking on purpose.
04:32Obviously.
04:33It's terrible, my God.
04:34But hey, it was a soap opera.
04:36And I managed to be like five episodes in rehearsals and all that.
04:39In front of tomorrow.
04:40In front of tomorrow.
04:41I feel like a complete warrior.
04:43A proposal just arrived, because they called me from Channel 13.
04:46Eduardo Domínguez.
04:48I agree.
04:49A round of applause for him.
04:50A round of applause to heaven for him, right?
04:52I also had the opportunity to work with him in recent years.
04:55Yes, wonderful, really.
04:56Spectacular.
04:57So I came to Channel 13 and they offered me to be in the youth ranking of Sábado Gigante.
05:02There were several girls and boys who were competing.
05:05I have images of that, girl.
05:07No.
05:08Let's start watching.
05:09I haven't seen those images in many years.
05:11Your career is here.
05:12Look, please.
05:13Let's see.
05:29What a good time.
05:30Yes.
05:32That's it.
05:33Oh, I thought there were more girls.
05:36In first place, with 122 votes, Morning Train with Miriam Hernández.
05:43That was the only time I won.
05:46The only time.
05:47Do you realize the attitude I had when Don Francisco was talking?
05:51But let's watch the video again, because you were so angry.
05:54I was like saying, I'm never going to win.
05:56Obviously I'm not going to win.
05:57Because when you check, look, there we are watching.
06:00You had done all the performances, all the types of songs, musicals.
06:03Exactly.
06:04They all won the month, every month.
06:06And I was the last month to be in the youth ranking.
06:09Look, look, look.
06:10How am I?
06:11Are you crying?
06:12Like saying, are you sure you're going to win one of the two?
06:14And I couldn't believe it.
06:17Hey Miriam, the truth is that I see you and you're the same.
06:21Awesome.
06:22No, I'm not the same.
06:23How can I be the same?
06:24Look at my blushing face.
06:25No, but the faces change.
06:28Yes, well, I was 14 years old.
06:30But the bottom line is that it remains ...
06:33The essence.
06:34Absolutely.
06:35Yes.
06:36Absolutely.
06:37Yes, it's true.
06:38Look, look, look.
06:39How beautiful, what a beautiful time.
06:41Well, and you win there.
06:42What happens when you win?
06:43What happens with your life when you win?
06:45There is a turning point.
06:46It was tremendous, because every participant who won the month,
06:49a record was recorded.
06:51Already?
06:52And when I won, that prize was no longer there.
06:56Prize for perseverance.
06:57Come on, keep going.
06:58Look, rowing, rowing, rowing.
07:00And what happens?
07:01What do they tell you?
07:02And there I decide ...
07:03No, there was no prize.
07:04There was no prize.
07:05Unfortunately.
07:06Of course.
07:07And it was the Saturday before the summer.
07:08Then you go on vacation and everyone forgets.
07:10And in that I said, no, I have to do something,
07:13because I believe in myself,
07:14I have to show a record company that already,
07:16they had also told me no,
07:18they didn't call me or anything.
07:20And it occurs to me to ask for a song.
07:22And all the savings that I had had from the youth ranking
07:25to buy a car,
07:27I said, I'm going to spend it on a song.
07:31On a song.
07:32So they have already hired me in Elliot.
07:34Already?
07:35And I asked them for a song.
07:37I recorded it and I went to the record company.
07:41Stop there.
07:42Already.
07:43Because I want you to tell me later what song it is.
07:45Yes.
07:46And I think we can also sing a little bit,
07:48you even have a rocker past.
07:51Because you come to me with your romantic ballads,
07:54with these songs that reach the heart,
07:56but the truth is that I have images of you also from that time
07:58singing other types of songs.
07:59You have that video too.
08:00Look, look, look.
08:01My God.
08:18My God.
08:41Oh, how high.
08:45What memories, beautiful.
08:47What happens to you when you see those images?
08:49What do you remember?
08:50What were you living at that moment?
08:52I remember how skinny I was.
08:56I remember so many things.
08:59That I came from school and I was going to record.
09:01Then I was going to study.
09:03Of the anxieties I had, obviously,
09:05to become a singer with my own style.
09:07And that is very difficult.
09:09It is very difficult because you were trying all kinds of things.
09:11Exactly.
09:12But I was clear that I wanted to sing to love,
09:14that I wanted to be a ballad singer, anyway.
09:16And a company suggested to try me,
09:18if they hired me,
09:19that I actually had to sing rock.
09:21And I sing that song,
09:23and that's where all this comes from.
09:24You are going to call Miriamé and you are going to sing rock.
09:27Ah, you had to sing already?
09:29Yes, and I go to the dressing room of Canal 13
09:32and I start crying.
09:33Because I said, in addition to the audience, of course,
09:35obviously, it turned on because of the song.
09:37And then I said, no, I don't want to do this.
09:39I don't want to sing.
09:40I love rock.
09:41And in fact, in my live shows today,
09:43I ask for a lot of rock in the guitars,
09:45in the style, anyway, in the ballad.
09:47Combine.
09:48But it wasn't to be a career.
09:50You have to think like a rocker.
09:51You have to live like a rocker.
09:52You have to feel like a rocker.
09:54And I'm not.
09:55I'm more romantic.
09:57So I cried and said no.
09:59And then I start with this issue of recording my album.
10:04I ask Nano for the song for John Elliott.
10:06I go to the company and I give them the proposal that I had.
10:09And they tell me, no,
10:10that it was actually too romantic,
10:12too...
10:13Again, they close the door.
10:15Yes.
10:16Again, they tell you no.
10:17That no.
10:18Yes.
