At a very young age, Yuri showed artistic interest and she was accepted to a famous Russian ballet. However, she wasn't allowed to join because her parents were afraid of the prospect of little Yuri living in a foreign country.
When Yuri was 12, she participated in two famous Mexican television children's shows for Televisa, including the Cepillin show.
In the late 1970s, she released her first album and represented Mexico in the Festival Oti, reaching second place and winning an award as the best newcomer to the contest. In 1980, she was signed to a contract by Gamma Records, and her career took off, becoming widely known in Spain, El Salvador, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Colombia, Panama, Argentina, and many other hispanic countries. But before she gained international superstar status, in 1982, she participated again in the Festival OTI, earning a fourth place.
During the rest of the 1980s, Yuri's albums often reached the top, earning her over 100 gold albums in Mexico. One of Yuri's most memorable hits of the late 1980s is the disco-styled "Que Te Pasa."
In 1994, Yuri and Chayanne were the stars of the Volver a Empezar telenovela, and in 1995, she married a Chilean musician. Later, she became a born-again Christian and has made Christian albums. Although there was some controversy as she decided to sing non Christian music again.
In 2005, she was chosen to host the new TV season of a talent contest for newcoming singers, Objetivo Fama that began in 2004.
Yuri was a judge on the second season of Cantando Por un Sueño. She also was a judge during its first season and performed several times on the show.
In 2006, Yuri released an album with a Mexican singer, Mijares, called Acompañame. Its title track, Acompañame, is a sentimental romantic ballad.
Many call Yuri "La Madonna Mexicana," i.e. "The Mexican Madonna" (although this characterization has also been applied to Gloria Trevi.)

La Mujer Que Soy
Yuri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y dejo que me toques libremente
Si digo que tu amor roba mi mente
Promete respetar, prometeme quererme tal y como soy
Si juego de una vez toda mi suerte
Y dejo que me mojes de tu fuente
Tu tienes que pensar lo que prometes
Vas a tener que dar todo y un poco mas
Conmigo ya no va media felicidad
Recibiré tu amor, te ofreceré mi voz
Te entrego sin dudar a la mujer que soy
Vas a tener que dar todo y un poco mas
A mi no me prometas medio amanecer
Puedo calmar mi sed junto a tu cuerpo ven
Me voy a regalar te entrego sin dudar
A la mujer que soy
Vas a tener que amarme tal y como soy
Y al fin veras a la mujer que soy.
Si juego de una vez toda mi suerte
Y dejo que me mojes de tu fuente
Tu tienes que pensar lo que prometes
He sido herida, he sido herida ya sin defenderme
Vas a tener que dar, todo y un poco mas....
The song "La Mujer Que Soy" by Yuri is a declaration of self-worth and a call for a partner to accept and cherish the singer for who she is. The song starts with an acknowledgement of vulnerability, as the singer puts her heart on the line and asks her partner to touch her freely. However, she also demands respect and asks to be loved as she is, without any attempts to change or mold her. She warns her partner that she has been hurt before and is done with half-hearted promises.
In the chorus, the singer raises the stakes and demands a partner who is willing to go above and beyond to make her happy. She will not settle for "half happiness" and wants her partner to give everything and more. She offers her love and her voice in return, but asks for the same level of commitment in return.
The second verse repeats the themes of vulnerability, desire, and caution, with the singer reminding her partner that she has been hurt before, but still wants to take the risk with him. The song ends with a reaffirmation of the demands made in the chorus, with the singer urging her partner to love and accept her for who she is.
