Olga Tañón Opens Billboard Latin Women in Music With Fiery Medley, Receives Lifetime Achievement Award


Olga Tañón opens Billboard Latin Women in Music 2025 with a fiery medley before receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award from Luis Fonsi.

Olga Tañón brought the fire to the stage at Billboard Latin Women in Music on Thursday night (April 24), kicking off the third edition of the event, broadcast live on Telemundo. The Mujer de Fuego (Woman of Fire) performed a commanding medley of hits that included “Basta Ya,” “El Reclamo,” “Escondidos,” “Cómo Olvidar” and “Así Soy Yo.” Moments later, she received the Lifetime Achievement Award for her unmatched influence as a merengue star from her fellow Puerto Rican friend Luis Fonsi, who called her “more than a star, a force of nature” and an “undisputed role model for Latinas” as an artist, mother and wife. On the Tropical Airplay chart, she holds the record as the female artist with the most top 10 entries (29 in total), with hits like “Es Mentiroso,” “Cómo Olvidar,” and “El Frío de Tu Adiós,” to name a few.
