At the age of 15, Corretjer hosted a Puerto Rican television show named La Ola Nueva (The New Wave). In 1995, she released the album Sola (Alone), which sent three of her songs to the Billboard lists. In 1997,Corretjer released her second album, Emociones (Emotions). Her third album, 1999's Amar es un Juego earned her a golden album in Puerto Rico, her song De Hoy en Adelante (From Today On) ranked number one on Billboard for more than six weeks. Millie has a very soft, low and angelic singing voice when she sang. Corretjer and her music mainly became well known in Puerto Rico, Latinamerican countries, Mexico (were she lived for six months) and the United States.
In 2000, Oscar De La Hoya recorded his first music album. In the studio, while trying to record songs for his album, De La Hoya was finding it difficult to sing with more passion. To demonstrate passionate singing, his producer Rudy Perez showed him "Una Voz en el Alma", one of Corretjer's music videos from the previous album that he had produced for Millie. De La Hoya asked for the name of the singer in the video, and the producer replied that she was a singer and actress named Millie Corretjer, who had previously worked with him.
De La Hoya at the time, asked that Corretjer be the model on his next music video. After meeting each other on an EMI convention in Texas, Corretjer and De La Hoya fell in love and began dating. Corretjer and De La Hoya were married on October 5, 2001, in a secret ceremony in San Juan.
Millie made an appearance in an Oscar video "Para Que" and years later Oscar did the same in Millie's latest album "En Cuerpo y Alma" for the song video "En Cuerpo y Alma".
On December 29, 2005, Corretjer gave birth to Oscar Gabriel De La Hoya Corretjer in San Juan, Puerto Rico. On May 5, 2007 in Las Vegas, just one hour after the De La Hoya-Mayweather fight was over, in Oscar's locker room, Corretjer revealed to De La Hoya that she was three months pregnant with their second baby. Their second child, a girl, named Nina Lauren Ninette De La Hoya Corretjer, was born on December 29, 2007, on Oscar Gabriel's second birthday.

Millie Corretjer
Otra semana sin verte más
y no pensando que fue de ti
sin una explicación
que le pasó a nuestro amor?
salgo a la calle pero es igual
no hay fantasía, no hay alegrías
sin ti
Dice la gente que así es mejor
que en poco tiempo te olvidaré
pero no es cierto
si tu estás dentro
dentro de mi corazón
(coro)
Yo quiero oir tu voz
acariciar tu piel
y sin ti que me recorres
con tus manos al amar
y saberte solo mio
y que aún piensas en mi
que esto aquí no se termina
que esta ausencia de hoy
no es el fin
A tu sonrisa me acostumbre
a tu mirada color de miel
dónde te has ido?
dulce amor mio, sin mi
Llega otro tremas
y no vuelves tú
vago perdida por la ciudad
me siento sola, la tarde llora
llora porque tu no estás
(coro)
Yo quiero oir tu voz
acariciar tu piel
y sin ti que me recorres
con tus manos al amar
y saberte solo mio
y que aún piensas en mi
que esto aquí no se termina
que esta ausencia de hoy
no es el fin
Te mal tengo que olvidarte
tu recuerdo crece más
y pretendo imaginar
que a los dos nos pasa igual
que no he sido una aventura
que también me extrañarás
que a mi amor lo necesitas
que mañana volverás
Y yo sin ti...
"Sin Ti" is a heart-wrenching song by Millie Corretjer from her album "Sola." The lyrics talk about the pain and agony of being separated from a loved one and not knowing what happened to the relationship. The song talks about the pangs of loneliness, missing the person's touch and voice. The singer sounds desperate and wants to feel the love again. The lines "Dice la gente que así es mejor, que en poco tiempo te olvidaré, pero no es cierto si tu estaśs dentro, dentro de mi corazón," show that people may think she has moved on, but it is not valid because the person she loved is still in her heart. The song's lyrics express the craving for the person's touch, the longing for their affection, and the hope that the separation is not the end.
