Biography

Early life and adult film career

Fuentes was born in Colombia and grew up in Madrid, Spain. She entered the adult film industry in 2007, after launching her own amateur website. She initially shot her scenes in Spain, but later moved to the United States. In 2009, federal agents arrested a man in Puerto Rico on suspicion of possessing child pornography that included Fuentes. At trial, a pediatrician testified that Lupe was underage based on her appearance. Lawyers for the defense subpoenaed Fuentes to show her passport, proving that she was 19 years old at the time of filming.
