Boyer was included in Los 50 más bellos list of People en Español, a list of Latino celebrities chosen for their beauty.^[3] In 2012, she was given her second protagonist role in Abismo de Pasión.

Biography

Boyer was born in Saint-Claude, Jura, France.^[4]

At a very young age, she became a member of the musical group "Rabanitos Verdes" (Little Green Radishes). At the age of eight she enrolled in the Centro de Educación Artística, where she later graduated at the age of 12.

While filming Rebelde, she and two other co-stars - the characters of Celina (Estefanía Villareal) and José Luján (Zoraida Gómez) - formed the band Citricus or C3Q'S, which recorded one song - "No Me Importa" ("I don't care"); though it was only a single, the song went on to be played aired during a special concert show and was used as soundtrack during the rest of the show when characters acted rebellious. The song became a favorite of fans, but was overshadowed by the main cast RBD's two albums.

After Rebelde, Boyer auditioned for Bailando por la Boda de mis Sueños (Dancing for my Dream Wedding), a charity show in which less fortunate contestants are paired with celebrities in order to have their dream wedding paid for. Boyer has been featured in H Para Hombres and the Mexican edition of Maxim. In 2007, she began to appear regularly on another television series, Muchachitas como tú. Her mother Sylvie Rousseau died on June 17, 2014 at age of 49.

Transition to mature roles

In 2009, she was cast in the high crime drama television series Mujeres Asesinas 2 as a violent killer, a role she welcomed as a contrast to the "good-girl" characters she typically portrayed. Roles which later broke new ground for her were the big budget telenovela projects in 2010 Corazón salvaje and in 2011 Teresa as protagonist and main villain.^[5] These controversial roles marked a significant change in Boyer's acting career, for this was the first time fans had seen the actress in more mature roles.

Not long after she was the protagonist-antagonist in Teresa, she participated in a theatre role, Ausencia de Dios (God's Absence) she went from "la hembra mala" (femme fatale) to a "monja" (a nun in catholic religion), where she worked with Raquel Olmedo once again, and Jacqueline Andere.

In 2012, Angelique Boyer starred in the telenovela Abismo de Pasion with David Zepeda. She played Elisa Castañón, a young, innocent woman forbidden to be with the love of her life, Damian Arango, played by David Zepeda, due to family differences and secrets.^[6]

On June 26, 2013, it was confirmed that Angelique Boyer (along with Sebastián Rulli and Luis Roberto Guzmán) would star in Angelli Nesma's Lo Que La Vida Me Robó, a remake of Ernesto Alonso's Bodas de odio produced in 1983.^[7]

Personal life

Boyer was in a relationship with Mexican telenovela producer José Alberto Castro from 2011 to March 2014.^[8] As of September 2014, she is in a relationship with Mexican-Argentinian actor Sebastián Rulli.^[9]
