Miguel Jontel Pimentel (born October 23, 1985) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, and actor. Raised in San Pedro, California, he began pursuing a music career at age thirteen. After signing to Jive Records in 2007, Miguel released his debut studio album, All I Want Is You, in November 2010. Although it was underpromoted upon its release, the album became a sleeper hit and helped Miguel garner commercial standing.
In August 2013, the new single “#Beautiful” with Mariah Carey became Miguel’s third million-seller in the US, following “Sure Thing” and “Adorn”. During an energetic performance of “Adorn” at the Billboard Music Awards on May 19, Miguel failed in an attempt to leap across the stage, injuring two audience members in the process. Barely missing the stage, Miguel landed on two women, hooking his right leg over one and knocking the other into the stage. The incident, known as the “Miguel Leg Drop,” became an immediate internet sensation and has been satirized in numerous internet memes and gifs. It has also been the subject of controversy, with the show’s producers claiming that they had denied the singer permission to attempt the leap, while Miguel’s representatives have countered that no objections were raised during earlier rehearsals.
For nearly a year, Miguel’s manager at the time submitted several songs to music mogul Mark Pitts; after receiving a song titled “Sure Thing”—which Miguel described as a “highly personal … record that no one was ever supposed to hear”—Pitts scheduled a meeting with Miguel in October 2007. The following month, Miguel signed a recording contract with Jive Records. Miguel recalled that the signing of his contract took place in a “very small room in a very small office in a small corner of the building at Jive”. After being signed, he recorded his debut album All I Want Is You, but was sued by Black Ice for breach of contract. Consequently, his album was not released for two years. In 2007, Miguel also contributed vocals to three tracks on the debut collaborative project of Blu and Exile, Below the Heavens, appearing under the moniker “Miguel Jontel”.
