Son of singer Jenni Rivera
Johnny Lopez
He grew up carrying that loss in public.
Johnny Lopez lost both parents by age 11. His mother, Jenni Rivera — one of the most celebrated figures in regional Mexican music — died in a plane crash in December 2012. His father passed shortly after. He grew up carrying that loss in public, surrounded by a family and a fanbase still processing their own grief. His conversation with Sloan is the first episode of the podcast — an unflinching account of what it means to lose a parent who belonged to the world, and what it means to grow up in the aftermath.
