I didn’t think of being like someone else, I listened to Vicente Fernández and Pedro Infante. Don Vicente introduced me to the executives of a record company, they listened to me and They signed a contract and that’s where my career began,” says Fernández. Don Francisco assures that Pedro Fernández is one of those artists who are born artists: “He has won all possible acting and music awards in Mexico, the United States and several countries on the continent. He has given his music to millions around the world, with He has done it with the same simplicity before kings and queens, presidents, pontiffs and before his beloved Virgin of Guadalupe”. “I have a special affection for him not only because every time we have called him to be in our Chilean Telethon he has said always present.
