Pedro Fernández (born José Martín Cuevas Cabos on September 28, 1969) is a Mexican actor and singer. He took his artistic name by combining his two musical idols, Pedro Infante and Vicente Fernández. Vicente Fernández also gave him his first shot at success by introducing him as a singer in one of Vicente's palenques. He made his cinematic debut at age 9 in the movie La Niña de la mochila azul. Since then he has starred in many Mexican films and soap operas, but is best known for his numerous Latina hits such as "Mi Forma De Sentir" and "La Mujer Que Amas."

He won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Ranchero Album for "Yo No Fui" at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2001.
