Roberto Carlos, a popular Brazilian singer since the 1960s, is celebrating his 50th anniversary in music with a series of concert dates in the United States. Carlos will perform in Miami on April 10, then follow up with dates in Boston, New York, Rosemont, IL, and, in late May, a single date in San Diego.Born in Cachoeiro do Itapemirim, Espírito Santo, Brazil in 1941, the Latin Grammy-winning Carlos has sold over 120 million albums to date. He released his first recordings in Brazil in 1961 and his fame grew during that decade, when he also starred in films. Later on in his career his style shifted from rock-oriented to a more adult pop sound, and he began singing in English and French in addition to Portuguese, Spanish and Italian. Last year he performed to an estimated 70,000 people in Brazil's Maracanã Stadium.
