Flavia Laos's Biography: from the telenovela to BTS's label

A Peruvian artist signing with the label that manages BTS is not something that happens every year. Flavia Laos did it in February 2026, when she signed with HYBE America, and in March 2026 she released her EP La Rubia Enamorada. Before that she was a youth telenovela actress, a cover girl and one of the most followed influencers in Peru. At 29 she has three careers running in parallel. Here you will find her story with the verified facts: how she started, what that signing means and what she is up to now.

Who is Flavia Laos?

Flavia Laos is a Peruvian singer, actress and influencer born on August 1, 1997. She became known starring in the telenovela Ven, baila quinceañera and in February 2026 she signed with HYBE America, the American subsidiary of the South Korean label of BTS. In March 2026 she released her EP La Rubia Enamorada.

Flavia Laos's childhood and early years

Flavia Laos Urbina was born on August 1, 1997. As happens with most of the figures who came to Peruvian television very young, her life before the screen is poorly documented: the press started following her when she was already a teenager and working.

Her entry into the industry was through acting. Ven, baila quinceañera, the youth telenovela she starred in, made her a known face in Peru when she was still in the early years of her career.

That starting point marks a difference compared with other figures of her generation. Many reached fame through competition reality shows; she did it through fiction, with a leading role and a teenage audience that followed her afterwards to her other projects.

At Famosix we avoid filling the undocumented stretches with speculation. About her family and her education there is no information confirmed by reliable sources, so we prefer not to record it.

Flavia Laos's professional career

Her path has three overlapping layers: actress, singer and influencer. That multiple profile is characteristic of her generation, the first that built a career with social media as the central platform from the start.

It is best not to read it as scattering. In the current Latin American market, a single one of those facets rarely sustains a young artist financially; the combination of fiction, music and sponsored content is what allows you to live off the trade while one of the three takes off.

Acting was the door. After Ven, baila quinceañera she kept working in television, but her interest gradually shifted towards music. In 2017 she released her first single, "Amor infinito", and since then she has sustained that facet despite the usual scepticism towards actors who sing.

That scepticism has a statistical basis: the list of Latin American actors who tried to sing and did not get past a couple of singles is long. What distinguishes her case is the persistence. Eight years separate that first track from the contract with a multinational, a span that rules out the idea of a passing whim.

The leap in scale came in February 2026 with the signing by HYBE America, the American subsidiary of HYBE, the South Korean record company behind BTS. It is a signing worth putting in perspective: HYBE is one of the most powerful music companies in the world, and for it to sign a Peruvian artist is not a routine move.

HYBE's American subsidiary was created precisely to enter the Latin and English-speaking market, so the logic of the signing is not Korean but commercial: looking for Spanish-speaking artists with an audience of their own and regional reach. Laos fits that profile because of her follower base on social media, which is a measurable asset even before releasing a record.

For the Peruvian market the fact carries weight because it breaks a usual barrier. Local artists tend to sign with regional labels or to self-manage; reaching a multinational of that size is a leap that almost no Peruvian pop name had made.

The first result of that stage came in March 2026 with the EP La Rubia Enamorada, her most ambitious work to date and the first backed by the structure of a multinational.

Milestones of her career:

• She stars in *Ven, baila quinceañera*: she becomes a known face of Peruvian television
• 2017: she releases her first single, "Amor infinito", and begins her music career
• She develops her influencer side: she builds an audience of her own on social media
• 2026: she signs with HYBE America, subsidiary of the South Korean label of BTS
• March 2026: she releases the EP La Rubia Enamorada
• July 1, 2026: she enters the Chilean reality show ¿Volverías con tu ex? 2

Flavia Laos's personal life

Her best known relationship was with Austin Palao, a model and figure of Peruvian television. The couple kept a relationship of several years and announced their separation in November 2025, an outcome that surprised their followers.

The story had an unusual twist. On July 1, 2026, both entered together the Chilean reality show ¿Volverías con tu ex? 2, a format that brings former couples together to live under one roof. Entering a programme like that after a recent break-up is, at the very least, a risky professional decision.

Inside the programme there was also a much-discussed episode: in July 2026, Palao publicly played down Laos's music career, which earned him criticism and accusations of sexism in the Peruvian and Chilean press.

At Famosix we record what happened with the available facts and we avoid going into the assessment of a private conflict that unfolded inside a format designed precisely to generate them. It is worth remembering that in these programmes friction is not an accident: it is the product, and the participants know it when they sign.

Fun facts about Flavia Laos

• She signs with the same group that manages BTS: HYBE America took her on in February 2026.
• She started as an actress, not as a singer: the music came after the telenovela.
• Her first single is from 2017: "Amor infinito", nine years before the signing with HYBE.
• She entered a reality show with her former partner: alongside Austin Palao, seven months after separating.
• She is a Leo: her birthday is on August 1.
• Her 2026 EP is called *La Rubia Enamorada*: released in March under the American label.
• She works on three fronts at once: acting, music and content on social media, without having abandoned any of the three.

Flavia Laos in 2026

2026 is, by far, the most relevant year of her music career. In March she released La Rubia Enamorada under HYBE America, a month after her signing.

In July she added international television exposure by entering ¿Volverías con tu ex? 2 in Chile alongside Austin Palao. It is a double-edged move: it widens her audience beyond Peru, but it brings her back to the showbusiness terrain just when her music project was starting to speak for itself.

The calculation, in any case, is not far-fetched. The Chilean market is one of the biggest consumers of cohabitation television in the region, and appearing there gives her an audience that no Peruvian tour would have given her in the same period. Whether that audience then connects with her music is another matter.

At Famosix we believe her case raises the most interesting question in current Peruvian showbusiness: whether a local artist backed by a multinational can become a regional name, or whether the media circuit that made her known will end up weighing more than her music. The answer will be seen in the coming months. You can see other figures from the industry in our ranking of Peruvian singers.

Conclusion

Flavia Laos went from a Peruvian youth telenovela to the label that manages BTS, a journey no other local artist of her generation has made. What she does with that opportunity is the part of the story that is still open. At Famosix we follow her career with the confirmed facts.
