Pablo Montero (born August 23 1974) is a Mexican singer and actor. A native of Torreon, Cohauila, Montero is better known for his singing career; in fact, it was his career as a singer that led him towards becoming an actor.

Known for his usage of "charro" hats and black clothing during his concerts, Montero is considered to be a teen idol and paparazzi favorite in Mexico. He is also well known in the rest of Latin America and among the Hispanic community in the United States.

When Montero was a teenager, he had his first professional singing job, as lead singer of a group named "Trebol", which had a number one hit in "Si tu Supieras" ("If you Only Knew").

Montero opted for a career as a solo artist after this, struggling in local bars and clubs until he got his big break in 1999 when his album, "Donde Estas, Corazon?" ("Where Are You, My Love?") became the number one album in Mexico's chart list. This in turn led to his acting debut, in "Vivo Por Elena" ("I Live Because of Elena"), where he played a struggling singer. This was followed by acting jobs in "Nunca te Olvidare" (I Will Never Forget You") and "Abrazame muy Fuerte" ("Hold me Tight").

His 2000 album, the self titled "Pablo Montero", produced the number one hit "Que Voy a Hacer sin Ti?" ("What am I Going to do Without You?"). This album was followed by 2002's "Pidemelo Todo" ("Ask me for Everything"), which also included a number one hit single in "Hay Otra en tu Lugar" ("There's Another Woman in Your Place Already").

Montero spent most of 2003 touring and preparing an album which was dedicated to legendary Mexican composer Javier Solis. This album hit the markets later that year.

Montero has been linked romantically with Susana Gonzalez, Aracely Arambula and three former Miss Universes: Puerto Rico's Denisse Quinones, Venezuela's Alicia Machado and The Dominican Republic's Amelia Vega.

In 2005, an ad campaign was run by clothing company, Hanes with the slogan "Look who we've got our Hanes on now". Mr Montero and Aracely Arambula both featured in the campaign for the Spanish language advertising. The English advertising campaign featured celebrities including Michael Jordan, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Marisa Tomei, Damon Wayans, and Matthew Perry. In 2006, the campaign added Kevin Bacon and Christina Applegate to their lineup.

In 2006, Montero starred in the Mexican soap opera Duelo de pasiones. He was then involved in a series of speculations about a possible romance with the female lead, Ludwika Paleta, married at the time to Mexican actor Plutarco Haza. They (Pablo and Ludwika) kept deying the speculations until a video was made public in which they were making out.
