At a Glance
From humble beginnings, El Salvadorian native Lilly Melgar was known mainly among Latino audiences as being a host on shows such as, "Tu Musica", "Des de Hollywood" and "Ritmo Internacional." Lilly's career in the States took off when she was discovered in a Taco Bell commercial. From there, she went on to star in a low-budgeted B movie, "Midnight Warriors."
Melgar is best known for her role as mob daughter/wife Lily Rivera Corinthos on General Hospital, starring opposite Maurice Benard and Ricky Martin (who she was also involved with in real life for a brief time). After her stint on "GH", she went on to play Claudia Cortez on another popular soap, "The Bold and the Beautiful." It lasted a little less than a year.
