Glenn Medeiros Now: What Happened to the 80s Teen Star?

Four decades after topping charts with the ballad “Nothing’s Gonna Change My Love For You,” Glenn Medeiros is experiencing a resurgence in popularity thanks to his daughter, Lyric Medeiros, and her TikTok videos featuring the pair performing his signature song.

Medeiros, now 55, first achieved international fame in 1987 at the age of 17 with the hit single, which reached number one in the United Kingdom and Canada and charted highly in Spain. The song’s success led to a wave of teenage fans who adorned their folders with stickers of the Hawaiian-born singer, as reported by Mundoamerica on February 11, 2026.

Born into a modest, Catholic family in Hawaii, Medeiros’s birth was described as a “miracle” due to a serious accident his mother experienced during pregnancy, according to the recent report. He was a reserved and shy teenager who found expression through music, winning a local talent reveal, “Brown Bags to Stardom,” at age 16 before quickly gaining international recognition.

Lyric Medeiros’s TikTok videos, featuring duets with her father, have reintroduced his music to a fresh generation. The videos showcase the pair singing, traveling, and playing guitar together, offering a glimpse into their family life.

While enjoying success in the late 1980s, Medeiros later stepped away from his music career in the mid-1990s. He subsequently revealed that his decision was influenced by witnessing rampant drug abuse within the music industry and facing unwanted sexual advances from individuals offering career assistance, as detailed in the Mundoamerica article.

As of February 12, 2026, Glenn Medeiros maintains an active Instagram account where he shares photos, including one of himself with his daughter, as noted in the report.
