In 1993, Trevi was named Queen of the Song Festival of Viña del Mar by the Chilean press, performing before 20,000 spectators. She also performed with great success at the Paramount Theatre in Madison Square Garden in New York. Additionally, she held successful concerts in Washington, California, El Paso, Dallas, and various other U.S. cities, becoming the Mexican pop-rock musician to have performed the most concerts in the United States. That year marked one of the longest concert tours of her career, with performances at venues such as the Universal Studios Amphitheatre in Atlanta, Georgia; San Antonio, Texas; Sacramento, California; Chicago, Illinois; and, for the first time, at the Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. In September, Trevi was confirmed as the most important Mexican pop-rock singer of the time and was dubbed the "Mexican Madonna" by the New York Newspaper and The Wall Street Journal.
