Dulce María remembers those crazy days, back in 2006, when she and the other five teenage members of RBD would finish recording their telenovela on the Televisa forum at 4 in the afternoon. From there, they would be picked up by a helicopter, flown to a private airport, then to another city, and finally taken directly to some arena, where they would sing and dance for two hours or more. Afterwards, they’d be back at the hotel, where, if there was time, they would rehearse or record some music.The following day, they would do it all over again.
“It was being on a roller coaster that never stops,” says Dulce María today. “You can’t assimilate neither the good nor the not so good, until you stop and it’s, ah!”
Everything stopped on December 22, 2008, when RBD, perhaps the most successful Latin pop group of all time, gave their last concert in Madrid.
But 15 years later, five of the six original members of the group have returned in what appears to be one of the most monumental reunions in Latin music.
In an exclusive interview with Billboard and Billboard Español, Anahí, Dulce María, Maite, Christian and Christopher sat down together for the first time in over a decade and spoke at length about their return to the stage, what RBD meant in their lives, where they are today, and their role and legacy in Latin pop music.

However, Billboard may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.When it comes to planning a trip, where should you even begin? Well, if you’re a music fan, you could plan your vacation around music history, so Billboard has rounded up 13 landmarks that should be on every music fan’s travel bucket list — along with a few hotel and tour recommendations and links to cheap flights.
Eleven of the hot spots are in the United States, while a couple — Abbey Road and Strawberry Field — are specifically for Beatles fans visiting the U.K. For Abbey Road, fans can snap a photo on the famed London crosswalk where the band shot the cover of their 1969 album or even tour the studio where the LP was recorded. Strawberry Field is in the band’s hometown of Liverpool — which is a two-hour-plus train ride from London — and was a Salvation Army children’s home that inspired the 1967 song “Strawberry Fields Forever.”
Back to the U.S., if you’re looking to head Down South, you could visit Pigeon Forge, Tenn., for the Dolly Parton-themed Dollywood amusement park, or Elvis Presley fans can get a double dose of The King in Memphis, Tenn.: at his Graceland mansion or Sun Studio where he recorded his very first song. Plus, don’t forget to pay homage to country music in Nashville at the Grand Ole Opry and Country Music Hall of Fame. If you’re looking for a centrally located hotel, the Embassy Suites by Hilton Nashville Downtown is walking distance from the Country Music Hall of Fame and a short drive from the Grand Ole Opry. The four-star hotel, which opened last year, features panoramic views of downtown Nashville, an on-site restaurant, indoor pool, fitness center, business center and live music. Outside Tennessee, there’s the famous Preservation Hall in New Orleans, which is home to the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
Elsewhere across America, there’s Prince’s beloved Paisley Park in Chanhassen, Minn., where fans will get a first-hand look at Prince’s personal archives, including his awards, wardrobe and musical instruments. Also featured on the list: Motown Museum in Detroit and the famous Apollo Theater in Harlem, N.Y.; the scenic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colo.; the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland; and Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel, N.Y., which was the site of the Woodstock music festival in 1969.
Below, find photos of all these important locations of music history.
