They were always competing with each other and always had the same kinda success. A few years ago Thalia started flopping while Paulina kept getting them smashes and maintained her cool image while Thalia seemed lost and didn't know what to do with her music. Then she reinvented herself with primera fila and got one of the best selling albums in Mexico in the past ten years. Paulina kept getting hits but in the past years she just hasn't had a big hit while Thalia has one of her biggest hits in years with Desde esa noche.
