NEW YORK, Dec. 12, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- HOLA! USA caps off 2018 and enters 2019 (¡Hola!'s 75th year) with cover star Thalía, the undisputed queen of Latin pop. The songstress, who has continually reinvented herself over her three-decade career, brought her signature charisma and charm to the iconic Plaza Hotel for a photo shoot with Alexei Hay. During her chat with editor-in-chief Miguel Sirgado, she touches on family life with husband Tommy Mottola and their children Sabrina and Matthew.

"I love [Tommy] as he is, and he loves me as I am; he doesn't love me more because I put on makeup or wear this kind of watch or that brand of shoes. I don't care which car he drives or that he wears a certain watch. He was born here in the Bronx; I was born in Santa María de la Rivera. So, even though we are living such a wonderful life, we come from there; we are living this life, but if we went back there, we'd be happy. Wherever we are, we are happy."

"My daughter is intense, very intense, like me. I understand her because I know the intensity of her feelings. I can 'read' her perfectly because she is like a reflection. However, she's her own person — she's independent, unique, wonderful. My son is very pragmatic, very objective, very clear, very punctual. He's more like his dad."
