href="/wiki/Classical_Hollywood_cinema" title="Classical Hollywood cinema">Golden Age of Hollywood</a> cinema. </p><p>Vélez began her career as a performer in Mexican <a href="/wiki/Vaudeville" title="Vaudeville">vaudeville</a> in the early 1920s. After moving to the United States, she made her first film appearance in a <a href="/wiki/Short_film" title="Short film">short</a> in 1927. By the end of the decade, she was acting in full-length <a href="/wiki/Silent_film" title="Silent film">silent films</a> and had progressed to leading roles in <i><a href="/wiki/The_Gaucho" title="The Gaucho">The Gaucho</a></i> (1927), <i><a href="/wiki/Lady_of_the_Pavements" title="Lady of the Pavements">Lady of the Pavements</a></i> (1928) and <i><a href="/wiki/Wolf_Song" title="Wolf Song">Wolf Song</a></i> (1929), among others. Vélez made the transition to sound films without difficulty. She was one of the first successful Mexican actresses in Hollywood. During the 1930s, her explosive screen persona was exploited in successful comedic films like <i><a href="/wiki/Hot_Pepper_(1933_film)" title="Hot Pepper (1933 film)">Hot Pepper</a></i> (1933), <i><a href="/wiki/Strictly_Dynamite" title="Strictly Dynamite">Strictly Dynamite</a></i> (1934) and <i><a href="/wiki/Hollywood_Party_(1934_film)" title="Hollywood Party (1934 film)">Hollywood Party</a></i> (1934). In the 1940s, Vélez's popularity peaked while appearing as Carmelita Fuentes in eight <i><a href="/wiki/Mexican_Spitfire_(film_series)" title="Mexican Spitfire (film series)">Mexican Spitfire</a></i> films, a series created to capitalize on her fiery personality. </p><p>Nicknamed <i>The Mexican Spitfire</i> by the media, Vélez's personal life was as colorful as her screen persona. She had several highly publicized romances with Hollywood actors and a stormy marriage with <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Weissmuller" title="Johnny Weissmuller">Johnny Weissmuller</a>. Vélez died at age 36 in December 1944 of an intentional overdose of the <a href="/wiki/Barbiturate" title="Barbiturate">barbiturate</a> drug <a href="/wiki/Secobarbital" title="Secobarbital">Seconal</a>. Her death and the circumstances surrounding it were the subject of speculation and controversy. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Life_and_career">Life and career</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lupe_V%C3%A9lez&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Life and career"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Childhood_and_education">Childhood and education</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Lupe_V%C3%A9lez&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Childhood and education"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Vélez was born in the city of <a href="/wiki/San_Luis_Potos%C3%AD,_San_Luis_Potos%C3%AD" class="mw-redirect" title="San Luis Potosí, San Luis Potosí">San Luis Potosí</a> in Mexico, the daughter of Jacobo Villalobos Reyes, a colonel in the armed forces of the dictator <a href="/wiki/Porfirio_Diaz" class="mw-redirect" title="Porfirio Diaz">Porfirio Diaz</a>, and his wife Josefina Vélez, an opera singer according to some sources, or vaudeville singer according to others.<sup id="cite_ref-vogel9_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-vogel9-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> She was one of five children; she had three sisters: Mercedes, Reina and Josefina and a brother, Emigdio.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Villalobos were considered a prominent, financially comfortable family in San Luis Potosí.

Ortega and Castro were preparing a season revue at the Regis Theatre, and hired Vélez to join the company in March 1925. Later that year, Vélez starred in the revues <i>Mexican Rataplan</i> and <i>¡No lo tapes!</i> (both parodies of the <a href="/wiki/Bataclan_(theatre)" title="Bataclan (theatre)">Bataclan</a>'s shows in Paris). Her suggestive singing and provocative dancing was a hit with audiences, and she soon established herself as one of the main stars of vaudeville in Mexico. After a year and a half, Vélez left the revue after the manager refused to give her a raise. She then joined the <i>Teatro Principal</i>, but was fired after three months due to her "feisty attitude". Vélez was quickly hired by the <i>Teatro Lirico</i>, where her salary rose to 100 pesos a day.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Vélez, whose volatile and spirited personality and feuds with other performers were often covered by the Mexican press, also honed her ability for garnering publicity.

This <a href="/wiki/Barbiturate" title="Barbiturate">barbiturate</a> is noted for being fast-acting even in small doses, and Vélez's death was probably instantaneous. Her death certificate lists "Seconal poisoning" due to "ingestion of Seconal" as the cause of death, not drowning. Further, there was also no evidence to suggest Vélez had vomited. In 2013, the first publication of a police photo of Vèlez's body on the floor of her bedroom was published.<sup id="cite_ref-75" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-75"><span
