The actress was born and named Angelique Monique-Paulette Boyer Rousseau to Patrick Boyer and his wife Sylvie Rousseau. Her birthplace is Saint-Claude, a commune in the Jura department located in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comte region of Eastern France. If Angelique was born in the United States, she would have been an Independence Day baby because she was born on July 4, 1988. She was raised mainly in Mexico City because her family moved from France to settle in the city around the time the future screen star was still two years old.
Angelique became interested in the showbiz industry at a very early stage of her life. Thus, long before her 8th birthday, she joined a musical group named Rabanitos Verdes (translated as ‘Little Green Radishes’) in Mexico City. At 8 years of age in 1996, Angelique enrolled at the prestigious entertainment arts school, Centro de Educación Artística (CEA). Based in San Ángel, Mexico City, CEA is run by Grupo Televisa, S.A.B., a foremost multimedia media company in Mexico and the largest in Hispanic America. This is to address the fact that Angelique was well prepared early enough for the career journey ahead of her. Also, although only applicants aged 17 to 23 were accepted in a very selective process where only about 35 to 40 applicants were chosen out of 5,000 applications per year, Angelique made it at age 8 (through an extraordinary form of the program known as ‘CEA Infantil’) which underscores her great talents even before joining the institute.
After graduating from CEA in 1996, Angelique Boyer received her first acting role (a lead role) in the Televisa (Mexican) soap opera Rebeide at age 15 or thereabouts. Around this time, the blue-eyed beauty formed a band named Citricus (also known as C3Q’S) with her co-stars Estefanía Villareal and Zoraida Gómez during the filming of the soap opera. She has since appeared in no less than a dozen roles and has been in five lead roles in a row since 2010.
