Biography                                                                    
As a kid, Alfonso, or Poncho as his friends called him, dreamed of becoming a pilot and
wanted to move to San Antonio, Texas to enroll in an aviation school. He had also shown an
interest in acting at an early age, and therefore he entered the Centro de Educación
Artística run by Latin American media giant Televisa. Following this training, he worked
profesionally in the theatre, including performances in Las Brujas de Salem (2001), Como
matar a un ruiseñor (2001) and Antigona (2001). In 2002, he was cast in the film Amar te
duele], directed by Fernando Sariñana, and from there moved into television, working in the
telenovelas Clase 406 and Rebelde.

Alfonso is a member of the band RBD, formed by actors from the telenovela Rebelde. Alfonso
and his group member, Dulce María, had an on-again off-again relationship from 2002 to 2005
but they are now good friends. Alfonso, Maite Perroni, Dulce María, Anahí, Christopher
Uckermann and Christian Chávez now are traveling with the 'Celestial' tour in countries like
Brazil, Japan and the USA.

Alfonso is viewed as the older brother of the group, even though it's Christian who is the
eldest male. He shares similar traits as Maite's; he's constantly showing his affection not
only to the girls of the group, but to the guys as well. He, just like the rest of his group
members, sees Christian, Anahi, Maite, Dulce, and Christopher as his siblings.

On July 13, 2006, Alfonso won the Esta Buenismo and El De Mejor Estilo awards during the
Premios Juventud award show which aired on Univision. He also won awards at that show with
his group RBD. Alfonso graduated from El Colegio Britanico (The Edron Academy) in the year
2002.
He has written a song for RBD's new album.
