The controversy surrounding the Timbiriche series continues, and now the focus is on Paulina Rubio and Thalía. While six members of the group publicly expressed their disagreement with the ViX production, the two singers chose not to sign the statement, a decision on which Mariana Garza provided new details.
During a meeting with the media, Garza explained that the former members were consulted before the document was released. When reporters asked her directly why Paulina Rubio and Thalía did not speak out, she replied: “I don’t know, ask them,” as reported by the Programa Hoy.
The Timbiriche member also clarified that the group respected everyone's individual decision and that no one was pressured to participate in the statement.
Why didn't Paulina Rubio and Thalía sign the statement against the Timbiriche series?
According to Mariana Garza, the former members were consulted before the statement was published and each decided if they wanted to join. However, the singer did not explain what personal reasons led Paulina Rubio and Thalía to stay on the sidelines.
"You can be sure of one thing. When we made the decision to release a statement, and those of us who released it did so, it is because we had already checked with everyone and each person made a decision. We never stepped over anyone, ever, for any decision,” the actress specified.
She also mentioned the case of Edith Márquez, who was part of Timbiriche between 1988 and 1991. As she explained, Márquez did not sign initially because she did not know the content of the series, but decided to join after seeing the first episode.
Who signed the Timbiriche statement against the ViX series?
The statement was released on October 6, 2026, before the premiere of the production. It was signed by six artists linked to the group:
- Sasha Sokol
- Alix Bauer
- Mariana Garza
- Diego Schoening
- Erik Rubín
- Benny Ibarra.
In the document, the singers noted that they did not participate in the creation of the series, that they were not consulted about the stories it presents, and that they did not authorize the use of their image, voice, or identity. The absence of Paulina Rubio drew attention because she was part of the group's original lineup.
