Early life

Amara La Negra was born Diana Danelys De Los Santos on 4th October 1990 in Miami, Florida, United States. She was raised by a single mother, Ana Maria Oleaga.

In fact, her mother worked at five places to support her daughter.

Amara La Negra Net Worth & Career

Amara started her musical career at just 4 years of age by starring on the Spanish language TV show “Sabado Gigante”. She was one of the regular cast members and the only black girl on the show. Amara worked six years on the show before becoming a backup dancer for famous Latin artists like Tito Puente, and Celia Cruz.

In her early teenage days, she became a member of an all-girl group called “Amara”. She named herself after a group and added La Negra to her name which means a black girl. Amara came up with a song titled “Ayy” in 2013, which became a big hit in the Latin market. Despite giving a hit song, she was struggling to get a place in the industry because of her dark skin.

Amara faced a hard time in 2015, after she went through a financial crisis, and had no home to live in. At that time, she worked a 24-hour job at McDonald’s and Walgreens. After three years, she eventually got selected as one of the main cast members on VH1’s reality show “Love & Hip-Hop Miami”. She became famous through her storyline that represents colorism and eurocentrism in the Latin community. Amara even went through a conflict with light-skinned Latino producer, Young Hollywood during the 1st season, when he criticizes her afro look during a business meeting.

Amara’s all dream was coming true in 2018 as she signed a multi-album deal with the international music company, BMG. With the music company, she later released two singles titled “Insecure” and “What A Bam Bam”.

In 2019, she released her first studio album titled “Unstoppable”. She has even performed her songs at various events and award ceremonies like the Hispanic Heritage Awards. Amara has also appeared in a lead role in a BET movie called “Fall Girls”. She has further worked along with her mother on a weekly Instagram show, where she co-hosted a show called “Gring Pretty, My Mom is the Bomb”.
