Sanjuana Reyna Claims Rights to 'La Bikina' | Ours Abroad News

Sanjuana Reyna, a famous singer from the 70s, has claimed to be the creator of the name "La Bikina", a well-known song worldwide. Although she acknowledges Rubén Fuentes as the author of the music and lyrics, she insists that the idea for the name came from her in 1962 and has been registered with the national actors' association since then.

"We must give credibility to Mrs. Sanjuana Reyna. She comes from the palenques and she says she is the inventor of the name 'La Bikina'. She invented the name at that time," expressed journalist Flor Rubio while highlighting Reyna's claims. For her part, Sanjuana has requested the collaboration of Luis Miguel in this matter.

The song "La Bikina" was created by Rubén Fuentes in 1964 and has been performed by renowned Latin artists such as Celia Cruz, Chayito Valdez, and Gualberto Ibarreto. However, the most popular version belongs to Luis Miguel, who included it in his album Vivo in 2000, recorded during his "Amarte es un Placer Tour".

The video of Luis Miguel performing "La Bikina" at the Coca-Cola Auditorium in Monterrey has reached about 269 million views on YouTube, becoming one of the most prominent tracks of the Mexican singer on the platform.

In this situation, Sanjuana Reyna seeks to be recognized as the creator of the song's name and hopes to receive a portion of the profits related to this international success. Meanwhile, the possibility of a new legal process involving Luis Miguel looms on the horizon following these statements.
