Life Journey
Sandra Oh was born in Nepean, Ontario, on July 20, 1971, the daughter of middle-class South Korean emigrants Oh Jun-su (John), a businessman, and Jeon Young-Nam, a biochemist. Her parents had traveled to the area in the early 1960s.
She has a brother, Ray, and a sister, Grace, and raised up in a Christian household, living on Camwood Crescent in Nepean, where she began acting and practicing ballet at age four to fix her pigeon-toed stance. Rising up, Oh was one of the few youths of Asian origin in Nepean.
At age ten, Oh performed The Wizard of Woe in a class musical named The Canada Goose. Later, at Sir Robert Borden High School, she established the environmental club BASE (Borden Active Students for the Environment), leading a drive against the use of styrofoam cups.
While in high school, she was selected as a student council president. She also performed the flute and continued both her ballet training and acting studies, though she remembered that she “was not good sufficient to be a trained dancer” and finally concentrated on acting.
She took drama classes, performed in school plays, and followed the drama club, where she took part in the Canadian Improv Games and Skit Row High, a comedy group. Against her parents’ advice, she refused a four-year journalism scholarship to Carleton University to study drama at the National Theatre School of Canada in Montreal, paying her own way.
Oh told her parents that she would try acting for a few years, and agreed to return to university if it abandoned. Following on forgoing university, she has stated that she is “the only person in the family who doesn’t have a master’s in something”. Soon after graduating from the National Theatre School in 1993, she acted in a stage production of David Mamet’s Oleanna in London, Ontario.
Around the same time, she got characters in biographical television films of two significant female Chinese-Canadians: as Vancouver author Evelyn Lau in The Diary of Evelyn Lau, where she got the performance over more than 1,000 others who auditioned, and as Adrienne Clarkson in a CBC biopic of Clarkson’s life.

Actress
Oh starred as Cristina Yang, Seattle Grace Hospital’s type-A cardiothoracic surgeon, on Grey’s Anatomy 10 seasons. Toward the end of her time on the show, Oh made $350,000 per episode, according to TV Guide, which amounted to $8.4 million per season, depending on how many episodes there were a season and if Oh starred in all of them.
The salary earned her the fifth highest-paid TV star at the time, a title she shared with her Grey’s Anatomy costars Ellen Pompeo and Patrick Dempsey, who was given the same rate. Ah, the question everyone desires to know: What is Sandra Oh’s net worth. According to WoodGram, Oh’s net worth is $25 million, which seems about right given how much she made on Grey’s Anatomy and continues to make on Grey’s reruns.
Further, she’s also acted in films like Under the Tuscan Sun and The Princess Diaries, which only adds to her bank account. She’s also entertained the 2019 Golden Globes. Though the awards show doesn’t pay astronomical numbers, it still sounds like a pretty penny (some sources report that hosts are paid around $15,000 per awards show) for a few hours of work.

How Impactful Would It Be For Sandra Oh (Christina Yang) To Return To Grey’s Anatomy?
I Guess All The Fans Would Lose Their Minds And They Would Probably Take Over Twitter For At Least 24 Hours. It Won’t Happen, Though. Sandra Oh Said At Multiple Occasions That She Would Not Return To The Show Because She Thinks Her Character’s Journey Has Found Its Conclusion. Furthermore, I Think Any Attempt At Reintroducing Her In The Show Would End Up Disappointing Everyone So. Nope.

A well-known Colombian singer named Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll or “Shakira” was born on 2 February 1977. Her musical versatility has earned her the title of “Queen of Latin Music”, as she was born and raised in Barranquilla. At the age of 13, she made her recording debut with Sony Music Colombia. With her next albums, Pies Descalzos (1995) and Dónde Están los Ladrones (1998), she rose to prominence in Hispanic countries after her first two albums, Magia (1991) and Peligro (1993), were commercial failures.
Upon the release of her fifth album, Laundry Service (2001), she entered the English-language market, selling more than 13 million copies in total. As a result of the international success of her singles “Whenever, Wherever” and “Underneath Your Clothes”, the album cemented her reputation as one of the most prominent crossover singers in the industry. As described by Broadcast Music, Inc., Shakira was a “pioneer” who extended Latino singers’ global reach.
Her success was further cemented by the Spanish albums Fijación Oral, Vol 1 (2005), Sale el Sol (2010), and El Dorado (2017), all of which reached the top of the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart and were certified diamonds (Latin) by the Recording Industry Association of America. She also received gold, platinum, and multi-platinum certifications in a variety of countries around the world for her English albums Oral Fixation, Vol 2 (2005), She Wolf (2009), and Shakira (2014). She has charted at number one in several countries with songs such as “La Tortura”, “Hips Don’t Lie”, “Beautiful Liar”, “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)”, and “Loca”. During the 2013-2014 season of the American singing competition television series The Voice, she served as a coach.
In addition to her 145 songs, Shakira has sold over 80 million records, making her one of the most successful music artists of all time. In 2018, Forbes Colombia reported that she had become the top-selling female Latin artist of all time. As a result of her work, other Latin artists have been able to gain access to the international market. In addition to three Grammy Awards, twelve Latin Grammy Awards, four MTV Video Music Awards, seven Billboard Music Awards, 39 Billboard Latin Music Awards, and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, she has received numerous awards.
In the 2000s and 2010s, Billboard named her the Top Female Latin Artist of the Decade. She was awarded the Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year and the Harvard Foundation Artist of the Year awards in 2011 for her philanthropic work with her Barefoot Foundation and her contributions to music. In 2011, she was appointed to the President’s Advisory Commission on Educational Excellence for Hispanics in the United States, and in 2012, she was made a Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French government.

Shakira Life Journey
Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll was born in Barranquilla, Colombia, on 2 February 1977. A daughter of William Mebarak Chadid and Nidia Ripoll Torrado, she is the only child of the couple. Her ancestry is Colombian and Lebanese. Her father, William, was born in New York City to a family of Lebanese descent.
His family moved to Colombia when he was five years old. There are two Spanish surnames on the Colombian mother’s side, Ripoll and Torrado, the former being Catalan and originating from four brothers who immigrated from Catalonia to coastal Colombia during the 19th century.
Her ancestor with the surname “Pisciotti” has also claimed to have distant Italian roots. As a child, she attended Catholic schools and was raised Catholic. From her father’s previous marriage, she has eight older half-siblings. During her youth, Shakira lived in Barranquilla, a city on Colombia’s northern Caribbean coast.
When Shakira was four years old, she wrote her first poem, “La rosa de cristal” (‘The Crystal Rose’). Growing up, she was fascinated by her father’s ability to write stories on a typewriter and asked for one for Christmas.
Since receiving that typewriter at age seven, she has continued to write poetry. Eventually, these poems evolved into songs. At the age of two, Shakira lost her older half-brother in a motorcycle accident; six years later, at age eight, she wrote her first song, “Tus gafas oscuras” (‘Your dark glasses’), which was inspired by her father, who had worn dark glasses to hide his grief for years.
Shakira first heard the Doumbek when she was four years old, which is a traditional drum used in Middle Eastern music and usually accompanied by belly dancing. As she danced at the table, she realized she wanted to become a performer as a career.
In second grade, she was rejected from the school choir because her vibrato was too strong, but she enjoyed singing for her schoolmates, teachers, and even nuns. According to her music teacher, she sounded “like a goat”. Due to her hyperactivity, she was often sent out of class at school.
As she demonstrated a number she had learned every Friday at school, she was also known as “the belly dancer girl”. This is how she discovered her passion for live performance. Her father took Shakira to a local park to see orphans to instill gratitude in her for her upbringing. She remembered the images and thought to herself: “When I become a famous artist, I will help these kids.”
Between the ages of ten and thirteen, Shakira was invited to various events in Barranquilla and gained some recognition there. She met local producer Monica Ariza at this approximate time, who was impressed with her and attempted to assist her career.
As Ariza flew between Barranquilla and Bogota, he persuaded Sony Colombia executive Ciro Vargas to hold an audition for Shakira in a hotel lobby. As a result of Vargas’ high regard for Shakira, he provided the cassette to a song and artist director at Sony. The director, however, was not overly enthusiastic about Shakira and believed that she was something of a “lost cause”.
Vargas, undeterred and convinced that Shakira possessed talent, set up an audition in Bogotá. In order to surprise Sony Colombia executives, he arranged for them to attend the audition. As a result of her performance of three songs to the executives, she was signed to record three albums.
Shakira Husband And Kids
She began a relationship with the Argentine lawyer Antonio de la Rúa in 2000. A 2009 interview with Shakira indicated that the couple already operated as a married couple and that they did not require legal documents to do so.
The couple separated in August 2010 after ten years of marriage. Shakira described their separation as a mutual decision to separate from one another romantically. According to the report, the couple views this separation as a temporary one, and de la Rai oversees Shakira’s “business and career interests as he has always done.”
As first reported in September 2012, de la Rúa filed a lawsuit against Shakira in April 2013 demanding $100 million he believed he was owed following Shakira’s termination of their partnership in October 2011. In August 2013, a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge dismissed his lawsuit.
In 2011, Shakira began a relationship with the Spanish football player Gerard Piqué. It was during Shakira’s music video for “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)” that Piqué and Shakira met, who is exactly ten years her junior.
The couple’s first son, Milan, was born on 22 January 2013 in Barcelona, where the family resides. On 29 January 2015, Shakira gave birth to their second son, Sasha.
Forbes included Shakira and Piqué on its list of “World’s Most Powerful Couples”. Following 11 years of marriage, the couple announced in a joint statement that they would be separating in 2022.
Shakira announced that she had completed an ancient philosophy course through the University of Pennsylvania in 2020, describing it as an impractical hobby.

In 2009, Billboard named her one of the Top Female Latin Artists of the Decade. One of only three female artists with two YouTube videos exceeding two billion views, she is the most-streamed Latin artist on Spotify.
Shakira released her fifth album in 2001, her first in English. In addition to selling 20 million copies, “Laundry Service” also launched the number-one international singles “Whenever, Wherever” and “Underneath Your Clothes”. A number of her subsequent albums, both in Spanish and English, reached the top of the charts and were certified gold, platinum, multi-platinum, or diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America.
Shakira signed a 10-year, $300 million contract with Live Nation in 2008.
Catalog Sale And The Voice Salary
The Hipgnosis Songs Fund acquired the rights to Shakira’s publishing catalog in January 2021. It included publishing rights to approximately 145 songs.
Based on comparable sales, the deal was likely worth at least $100 million, although the terms were not disclosed. It was reported in 2013 that Shakira earned $12 million from “The Voice.”
Real Estate
A minimalist Miami mansion owned by Shakira was listed for $11.6 million in 2018. Located on Miami’s North Bay Road, the 20,726-square-foot property overlooks the water and has direct access to Biscayne Bay.
There are six bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms in the 8,708-square-foot house. Among the neighbors are Matt Damon, Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez, Alex Rodriguez, and Michael Bay.
Shakira Career
A debut album entitled ‘Magia’ was released by her in 1991. She included songs she had written since she was eight years old. Commercially, the album did not perform well.

Controversies
The Paradise Papers named Shakira in November 2017. An investigation revealed that she owned the sole shareholding in a Malta-based company that used to transfer $30 million in music rights. In the opinion of her attorneys, the use of the company by her was entirely legal.
According to the Paradise Papers, Spanish authorities began investigating Shakira’s finances in 2018. Between 2012 and 2014, during which she lived with Piqué and his family in Spain, prosecutors alleged she did not pay taxes in Spain. Shakira claimed that during that period, she maintained her primary residence in the Bahamas and traveled internationally.
A Spanish court ruled in July 2021 that Shakira could be brought to trial on charges of tax fraud based on “evidence of criminality”. According to the Pandora Papers, Shakira applied for three offshore companies in 2019 according to the Pandora Papers in 2021.
She informed the source that this paperwork was not filed to establish new companies, but rather to dissolve existing companies. Moreover, they asserted that the companies had no income or activities and that Spanish authorities were aware of their existence.
After failing to reach a deal with the Spanish Prosecution Ministry, the singer decided to go to trial in July 2022 to prove her innocence. In connection with six alleged tax fraud crimes, the prosecutor requested an eight-year prison sentence from the judge.
After prosecutors accused her of failing to pay 14.5 million euros ($13.9 million) in taxes, a Spanish judge from Esplugues de Llobregat approved the tax fraud trial on 27 September 2022. The singer claims that she has already paid all of her debts as well as the interest of 3 million euros ($2.8 million).
Shakira is able to speak a number of languages. In addition to Spanish, English, and Portuguese, she is fluent in all three languages.
As a dog lover, Shakira has three dogs named Coquito, Chan, and Gordita.
The song Wherever, Whenever became the best-selling single in 2002. In addition, her single Hips Don’t Lie is considered to be the best-selling song of the 20th century.
“Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)” was Shakira’s official song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup. One of the most viewed music videos on YouTube has crossed over a billion views.
In addition to two Grammy awards, 26 Latin Grammy awards, five MTV Music Awards, and a Golden Globe nomination, she has also won two Grammy awards.
There is also a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame dedicated to Shakira.
It was none other than Shakira who reached 100 million followers on Facebook first.
Her first poem was written when she was only four years old.
Having watched her father write stories on a typewriter, she requested a typewriter for Christmas. Since receiving one when she was seven, she has been writing poetry.
“Dark Glasses” was written by her because her father always wore dark glasses to hide his grieving since her brother died in a motorcycle accident.
During a visit to a restaurant where a dancer was performing Belly-Dance to an Arabic drum beat, her father inspired her to become a performer.
At the age of two, she was dismissed from the school choir due to her strong vibrato. Each Friday at school, she performed a belly dance to a new number.
In her school, Shakira gained a reputation as “The Belly Dancing Girl,” where she discovered her passion for live performance.
At the age of 13, Shakira began to gain recognition in her hometown when she was invited to perform at a variety of venues. During this time, Monica Ariza noticed her and approached Sony executives to secure her a contract.
After watching her perform three songs, Sony Columbia signed her.
Sony gave her only $100,000 for the recording of Pies Descalzos because they anticipated that it would not sell more than 100,000 copies. There were five million copies sold and it sold well.
Columbia’s Caribbean Coast has already immortalized her through the construction of a five-meter statue of her.
A total of 55 countries ranked Hips Don’t Lie as the number one single. During a week, it was also the most played song on the radio, with 9637 plays.
Forbes ranked her as the highest-earning female artist of 2008.
She is the founder and director of the Pies Descalzos Foundation, which helps poor children throughout Columbia. In order to make her grateful for her life, her father used to take her to a park where orphans lived. Since then, she has aspired to help those children after becoming famous. A Humanitarian Award was also presented to her in 2003 for the same purpose.
It is noteworthy that her fiance, Antonio De La Ra, was the son of the president of Argentina at the time.

Everybody knows that he is the blitzing offensive weapon that Real Madrid could not afford to overlook.
We have an in-depth version of Rodrygo Goes Biography that is quite interesting, but not many soccer fans have read it. Let’s get started now, without further ado.
Rodrygo Silva de Goes Childhood – Early Life And Family Background
A brief biography of Rodrygo Silva de Goes begins with the fact that he was born on the 9th of January 2001 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to Denise Goes and Eric Batista de Goes.
His parents (Denise and Eric) were teenagers when they married when Rodrygo was born. At the time of writing this article (Sept 2022), Rodriygo’s dad Eric is 37 years old.
Rodrygo Father And Mother
His mother should also be in her early 30s. He was born when his dad was just 17 years old, implying that he was his dad’s first child. Rodrydo was born to superstar parents as their first child. For years, he was their only child, without a brother or sister.
In the state of Sao Paulo, the Rodrygo Goes family has its origin in the municipality of Osasco. According to GDP measurements, it is one of Brazil’s most prosperous municipalities.
Rodrygo grew up in Sao Paulo, which has more cars than Rio de Janeiro does. The city consumes 1 million of the 1.6 million pizzas consumed by the entire Brazilian population.
Rodrygo Silva de Goes Education
Rodrigo was born into a middle-class family whose income was derived from sports. As a footballer in Brazil’s lower leagues, his father earned insufficient money to support his family.
After having his son at a young age, Eric knew his career would not be very successful. With the help of his son, Rodrygo, he envisioned a future as a football player.
His love for football was ignited early on when he began playing in his family’s living room. Thanks to his dad’s guidance, his soccer education followed immediately.
As a Real Madrid fan, Eric made sure his son emulated Robinho’s skills and career path.
The videos of Robinho didn’t just expose Rodrigo to his moves; he copied them all. His father’s pride knew no bounds when he was called up to attend trials with Santos at the age of 9.
Rodrygo Silva de Goes – How To Enter In The World Of Football
Having a passion for soccer, Rodrygo Silva de Goes passed his trials with flying colors and joined Santos’ academy, which laid the foundation for his career. When he was ten years old, he joined the youth system of Santos.
Rodrygo’s parents wanted him to be assigned to the club’s futsal team. A path is taken by the family’s football idol, no other than the legendary Robinho.
Rodrygo began playing with older and bigger boys at the age of 10. In his games, he always stood out.
Having played Futsal as a forward taught him how to keep the ball at his feet, dribble past defenders, and score goals.
The same attribute was possessed by Robinho during his early playing days with Futsal. The more Rodrygo developed, the more he saw himself becoming the best.
Due to this feat, he was constantly under pressure to perform, something he handled well and became the captain of his youth team as a result.
Rodrygo Silva de Goes Continue Rise To Fame
Rodrygo approached 16 and began talking about professional contracts and scholarships. He was called up to the first team by manager Dorival Junior in March 2017.
As the youngest Santos player to appear in the Copa Libertadores, Rodrigo made his debut on the 1st of March 2018.
It was only two weeks later, in the same tournament, that Rodrygo scored his first goal. As a result of this feat, he became the youngest Brazilian to score in the Copa Libertadores. In 2018, Rodrygo won the Campeonato Paulista Best Newcomer award.
During his meteoric rise, Goes has become one of South America’s hottest young properties, comparable only to the rise of his idol Robinho.
Vinicius Junior’s impressive dribbling skills attracted Real Madrid scouts who at the time were relentlessly searching for South American players.
A momentous day in his life has finally come to pass. In a deal that showed he would be booked ahead of time, Rodrygo fulfilled his dreams by signing for Real Madrid.
Real Madrid agreed to the transfer of Rodrygo to Santos on the 15th of June 2018, a deal that became effective a year later.
As soon as Rodrygo Goes’ parents joined him in saying some heartfelt goodbyes to his beloved childhood club, it became a very emotional time.
The fact that I am going to Manchester United, one of the biggest clubs in the world motivates me to do so. The sheer size of the club scares me, but it is a good fear. I am motivated to do even more, and it means I must demonstrate my worth to them in order for them to sign me.
As Rodrygo signed off, he said.
Rodrygo is indeed one of the best forwards to emerge from Brazil’s endless production line.
After Neymar Jr., he is considered the next beautiful promise for Brazilian football. As they say, the rest is history.

6 Advantages of Implementing Online Registration to the Event
80% of event planners use an event management platform in some capacity or the other today. Event management platforms have become the need of the hour as they help you set up events in minutes.
Implementing an online registration system to your event can help boost its management tremendously. It makes registration quick for the participants while helping you manage it faster.
Let’s take a deeper look at the many benefits of having an online registration for your event.
6 Advantages of having online registration in your event
Whether you’re hosting an in-person, virtual, or hybrid event, you’re going to be having participants and attendees involved in it. Their registration and subsequent management can often be a hassle.
It can be resolved by implementing online registration at your event. It offers a plethora of benefits to ease event management on multiple levels. Here are some of the key advantages of online registration:
Quick, easy, and convenient
You don’t have to create online registration forms from scratch. Your online event registration platform will help you create one in minutes. Create different forms for different types of audiences and personalize them as you go along.
The registration system also helps speed things up on the participants’ end. They can register themselves quickly with no hassle. They will also appreciate a quick enrolment process, helping your form a good impression on them.
You can use online registration for all kinds of events. Even when your event is in-person, you can conduct online registration for a smoother and faster process. Don’t forget to send confirmation emails post registration to keep the participants in the loop.
Enhance the experience of the attendees
49% of marketers say that participant engagement is the most important metric to judge the success of an event for them. By implementing an online registration system, you enhance the experience of your target audience.
You make things easier and hassle-free for them. They don’t have to take the initiative to find you and register themselves. You essentially take the registration to them. Send them the link to register and all they have to do is click on the link.
Once they are on the page, they will fill out the short, simple, and easy form, make the payment, and enroll themselves. They will receive an instant confirmation mail containing all the relevant details about the event in one place.
They can also add details or side notes they wish to inform you about, such as certain allergies to food items so that you can curate their experience better. An additional remarks segment would provide them with a space for adding extra information.
Freedom to personalize
Creating registration forms quickly doesn’t necessarily mean that they have to be generic. Create forms that are personalized for your audience. Your online registration platform will help you do so by segregating your audience and creating the process for them accordingly.
For example, if your participants are going to be in the age ranges of the early 20s to late 40s, you can split them up into three categories: 20s, 30s, and 40s. Now, you can create your registration process based on their preferences.
People in their 40s are not very frequent users of emails, their form can be rid of that question. On the other hand, people in their 20s often use emails extensively. It can be listed in the form for them as the primary form of communication.
Moreover, you can offer participants options to personalize their stay at the event. For example, if there are simultaneous activities happening, attendees can choose which one they wish to be a part of on the form itself.
Multiple registrations
In many events, you’ll have to register multiple participants as well as take care of different kinds of attendees. An online registration platform takes care of these complex transactions by enabling simultaneous registrations.
The group registration feature allows attendees to register their team, co-workers, friends, and family with just a single registration. It helps save time on their part as well as yours as you receive more registrations with just a single process.
A group registration feature helps attract attendees who might not have registered otherwise. They might not want to go through the process of registering themselves separately even if the process is easy. Allowing them to register as a ‘plus one’ to a friend gets you more attendees.
Secure
Data breaches in 2021 exposed over 22 billion records. Online registration requires you to save confidential data about participants that can be compromised by hackers. This is why online registration systems pay special attention to security.
The form submission is done through a secure platform and the data is saved in a secure server where no third parties are allowed access. The payment is also made through an encrypted method to maintain top-notch security.
You can certainly advertise the security you provide during registration to your attendees. Ensuring that their data will be securely handled attracts more people to register themselves. They can rest assured that their confidential information will be in safe hands.
Paperless management
Online registration brings all-encompassing digitization to events, even if they are in-person events. Digitized information is easier to manage and protect than physical records. It helps you contribute toward a paperless society and be eco-friendly.
With physical registration, information written on paper through physical registration is always vulnerable to theft and misuse. It also takes space to store and is harder to organize or use. It also takes more time and resources to manage.
Whereas with digital registration. Information is stored in a secure server that is easier to protect and organize for further use. It takes no physical space and manages itself with automation, saving you time and resources.
Conclusion
Implementing an online registration platform to enroll participants and attendees helps boost your event management. It’s a faster, more convenient, and more effective way to enroll participants while offering them an enriching experience with you.
Enroll one or multiple employees with your online registration system. Offer them different choices to personalize their stay at the event, and close out the process by sending a confirmation mail containing all relevant details.

Life Journey
The following Yerry Mina biography provides information about his childhood, early life, parents – Marianela González (Mother), José Eulises Mina (Dad), family, wife (Geraldine Molina), child, lifestyle, personal life, and net worth. In summary, we present the history of the Colombian footballer. Our story begins when he achieved success in the game during his early years.
We invite you to take a look at Yerry Mina’s early life-to-rise gallery to whet your appetite for his autobiography. There is no doubt that he gained global fame after scoring three goals for Colombia at the 2018 World Cup – all of which were headers.
Despite this defensive accolade, there is a gap in his story. According to Woodgram, not many football fans have read Yerry Mina’s biography in its entirety. For the love of the game, we have prepared it. Let’s begin now, without further ado.
Yerry Mina Childhood
To begin with, he is known by his nickname The Gold Mine, Yerro, or Máquina (given by his close friends). Yerry Fernando Mina González was born on September 23, 1994, in the town of Guachené, Southwest Columbia to Marianela González and José Eulises Mina. As soon as he was born, his parents decided on a unique name for their first child and son. Yerry Mina’s name was inspired by the popular cartoon series ‘Tom and Jerry’.
Marianela (his mother) chose the name ‘Yerry’ as a tribute to her love of Jerry in the cartoon series. The name Yerry was derived from her favorite cartoon character – Jerry (the Mouse). He was born to his parents when they were relatively young. In starting their family so early, Jose and Marianela will have all the energy they need to chase their grandchildren around as grandparents.
Growing-Up Years
Marianela González and José Eulises Mina are the parents of Yerry Mina, the first child born of their union. During his early years, he lived with his half-brother, Cristian Andrés, and his younger brother, Juan José.
Like all firstborn children, Mina was a celebrated member of the family. According to our research team, this photograph represents one of the most memorable moments of his childhood. Yerry has always been viewed by his family members and neighbors as a humble young man with a natural ability to respect others.
He was one of those people who never complained about what Marianela and José (his parents) could not afford for him. As the firstborn, Yerry was taught the importance of setting an example at home. It is through taking care of Juan José and Cristian Andrés, his younger brothers, that he accomplishes this.
As a child, the future star was an avid fan of the dog. Throughout his life, he has been devoted to pets.
In the eyes of the Guachené native, the love for his family is one of his greatest blessings. There is no amount of football money that can replace the time that Yerry spends with his nuclear family. Here we will provide you with more information about his parents, brother, and relatives.
About Yerry Mina’s Father
José Eulises Mina had his first child when he was relatively young (in his early twenties). As a young parent, he had a great deal of responsibility on his shoulders. This was one of the reasons why José Eulises’ family struggled.
Yerry Mina’s father had brief opportunities as a goalkeeper. As a result, he was forced to abandon his dreams of playing football. In the end, what became a difficult period for his family turned out to be a blessing. In the same way as his first son, the proud father is humble. At his hometown of Guachené, José Eulises manages most of his son’s businesses, including the Yerry Mina Foundation.
As a result of his family’s efforts, Barcelona was able to hire the first Columbian (his son).
About Yerry Mina’s Mother
It was with his first wife that he shared the closest relationship of his life. Marianela’s maternal love for Yerry has been the most powerful influence on his development since he was born.
The first thing you will feel when you meet Marianela González is a sense of motherly fulfillment. Yerry has repeatedly sacrificed himself in order to keep putting a smile on her face. Furthermore, Yerry has fulfilled his responsibility of including her in his personal budget in addition to building her a house.
Back then, he gave his mother (for the family) 4,000 of his 6,000 wages and used the remainder to purchase food after training. Marianela derives her inner strength from her son, which is why she appears to be more relaxed these days. The older she becomes, the more beautiful and youthful she appears.
About Yerry Mina’s Brother
Juan Jose is the name of the individual. Once again, Yerry remains his greatest idol. Now that he is an adult, Juan is also involved in football. Yerry Mina’s younger brother plays forward and wings for the Colombian Under 15 team at the time of creating his bio.
As a 14-year-old, Juan José exhibits many of the same characteristics as his older brother. A few examples of this would be that he gets a similar haircut to Yerry, walks like Yerry, talks like Yerry, and even dances to the celebration of Yerry Mina’s goals.
Juan José will play for the youth team of Deportivo Cali in 2021.
About Yerry Mina’s Relatives
Let us begin with his uncle, Jair Mina. In the absence of this individual, Yerry would not have been able to get off to a smooth start in his profession. He was taken to Deportivo Pasto for his first trial by his father’s brother, a super relative.
Yerry’s father is also very close to the former goalkeeper. As I write, he serves as an agent for Mina. It is Jair Mina who is responsible for the beautiful negotiations that have earned him a handsome salary.
Having come from a sporting family, the Columbian’s lifestyle revolves around goalkeeping. Yerry Mina’s father, José Eulises Mina, was a goalkeeper before retiring. Consequently, the youngster aspired to follow in his footsteps.
As a matter of fact, Mina’s uncle was a professional goalkeeper. It is not surprising that our boy chose a career early in life. A point to note is that the Defender also comes from a poor family. It was difficult for José Eulises Mina to support his family through his goalkeeping duties.
When Yerry Mina was a child, he hung out of the back of lorries in order to get to school. Moreover, he earned £1.50 a day selling fruit, a development that inspired him to work hard and achieve success in life.
Yerry Mina Family Origin
First of all, the Columbian does not hail from one of the country’s largest cities – Bogotá, Medellín, Cali, etc. Mina’s family roots reveal a great deal about his humble beginnings. The town of Guachené is a small market town of approximately 20,000 people, many of whom consider Yerry a hero.
It was here that he grew up, dirt poor. Again, 99% of the residents of this town are Afro-descendants, including football players.
Yerry Mina Education And Career Buildup
In his schools, the Gold Mine has been viewed as very diligent since he was a child. As a member of a poor family, Mina paid the majority of his school fees by hawking fruits. Yerry Mina’s parents did not approve of him focusing exclusively on football during his pre-teenage years.
Marianela and José suggested that Yerry study up to his academic BAC (secondary education level) as a precaution in the event football fails. In keeping with expectations, the humble boy made his parents very proud before turning his full attention to sports.
In his hometown of Guachené, Yerry received the best education possible. As a late bloomer, he eventually accepted his calling (soccer).
As Yerry’s youth progressed, his genes began to dominate his height, size, and appearance. Due to his height, our boy dreamed of becoming a goalkeeper. His father and uncle disapproved of his actions. Mina once stated the following regarding the intent;
In accordance with my father, the goalkeeper position requires a great deal of sacrifice. He and his uncle were unwilling to take that risk on me. MY DAD does not wish to see me suffer in the same way that he did.
In the footsteps of his father and uncle, the youngster began his career as a defender. In contrast to many footballers, Yerry did not experience a boyhood career between the ages of 5 and 10.
It was difficult for him at the time to obtain transportation to training due to financial constraints. To reduce the burden on his parents, Mina developed the habit of jumping onto lorries at red lights in order to reduce the cost of living.
As a result of his hard work and consistency, he graduated from Deportivo Pasto at the age of 18. The towering center back was soon blessed by Nature with a great posture, one that made him appear as if he were a giant.
In comparison to anyone else on his team, Yerry displayed unrivaled football prowess. In 2013, Independiente Santa Fe – a top-tier Columbian team – secured his services as a result of his bravery.
As soon as Mina joined his new club, he became an instant hit. During his tenure with the Cardinals in 2015, he helped them win two major championships, the Copa Sudamericana and the Superliga Colombiana.
He experienced a tremendous upliftment on the 1st of May 2016. It has been confirmed that Mina will be joining Palmeiras, a Brazilian Sao Paulo club that has legends such as Gabriel Jesus, Rivaldo, and Roberto Carlos.
In order to live in Brazil, he left his family for the first time. The 6 foot 5-inch defender was called up to the Columbian national team due to his brilliance with Palmeiras. It is important to note that Mina’s performance was never compromised by injuries. Having recovered from injury, the defensive giant made a series of sublime performances after becoming an undisputed starter.
Thus, Mina played a key role in helping his team win the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A championship.
The 2018 World Cup Story
Yerry became a key member of his country’s squad following a series of impressive performances. The joy of his family knew no bounds when he was named to Colombia’s 23-man World Cup squad in May 2018.
In the global campaign, the towering center-back played an important role. At that memorable World Cup, Yerry set the record for the most goals scored by a defender in a single tournament (three).
As a matter of fact, his eye for goal and defensive attributes have earned him praise from the world’s most prestigious soccer federations. FC Barcelona saw an opportunity to capitalize on the giant’s market value after his country’s penalty shootout loss to Jordan Pickford.
His transfer to the Spanish giant was triggered and a €100m release clause was placed on his contract.
Becoming An Unforgettable Name To The Football World
Immediately following the 2018 World Cup, the new national hero began a new chapter in his life. It was indeed Yerry’s highest expectation to arrive at a club as prestigious as Barca. His immediate family and relatives were also filled with pride.
Andres Iniesta’s last season with the Blaugrana included the 6-foot-5 powerhouse. The contribution of Yerry Mina helped Barcelona win the La Liga and Copa del Rey titles that season. The Spanish giant refused to settle for Yerry as a third option behind Clément Lenglet and Gerard Piqué. The only thing he wanted was to be the first choice, keeping in mind his reputation.
Jose Mourinho became increasingly interested in signing him. It was the frustration of not being able to obtain Mina that led to a breakdown in trust between the board and the manager, which led to his dismissal. Yerry Mina was transferred from Everton to Barcelona on 11 January 2018. As a result of his love for Angry Birds, Mina joined Everton. This is an animated video game cartoon that is very popular.
If you recall, Angry Birds once sponsored Everton’s sleeves. The powerhouse reconnected with former teammates at the Merseyside club, including Lucas Digne and Portuguese Andre Gomes. The archetypal Columbian has continued to pay his dues in the game since Yerry Mina won the 2018 World Cup. There is no doubt that Everton fans can attest to the fact that their 6ft 5in colossus is the core of their defense.
In my opinion, Yerry Mina’s bullet heading, strength, and standing tackles are unmatched. In no doubt, his 2018 World Cup success story will remain in his heart for the rest of his life. As Woodgram states in his bio, the rest is history.
The defender’s accomplishments would not have been possible without the support of his female partner. Through thick and thin, Geraldine Molina has been by her husband’s side. It is evident that Yerry and his stunning brunette are very compatible just by looking at them.
To begin with, she was born on May 3rd, 1995. This implies that she is one year younger than her husband. Several blogs indicate that the Columbian WAG and her family originate from Guachené, the same town where her spouse resides.
Geraldine and Yerry Mina have been friends since their teenage years. They met at a time when he had not achieved any success in football. As a result of love and trust, they began to love each other – since Yerry was a player with Deportivo Pasto. Geraldine has remained selfless throughout the course of their relationship. Her spouse follows her wherever football takes her
She is the type of wife who provides her husband with emotional support, even at the risk of putting her own life on hold in order to do so. Yerry Mina regularly posts pictures of himself and his brunette on his social media accounts. Geraldine Molina was once the subject of a video that he made when he popped the ultimate question to her.
In the Columbian squad, Yerry Mina and his wife remain one of the most established couples. At the time of writing his biography, both couples welcomed their first child, a daughter. It is Geraldine and Marianela (his mother) who remain most dear to the towering defender.
In Aug 2018 Yerry Mina signed a contract with Everton FC that ends in 2023 that netted him a whopping salary of £6,006,700 per year. We have crunched the numbers, this means he earns £16,500 per day and £687 per hour!
