Mexican pop superstar Gloria Trevi is suing a music promoter who accused her of being an accomplice in her daughter's death. Trevi - dubbed the "Mexican Madonna" - gave birth to a baby girl in 1999 in Brazil while she was on the run from Mexican authorities, who were seeking the singer and her manager Sergio Andrade on child sexual abuse charges.

The baby mysteriously died when it was a few months old.

Trevi, 39, has filed a lawsuit against Mexican promoter Andres Puentes in Miami, Florida, after he allegedly claimed on a Florida radio station that the star and one of her back-up singers were responsible for the death of the baby.

Trevi is seeking $4 million in damages.

Trevi is mother to a young son Angel Gabriel, who was conceived while the singer was in a Brazilian prison awaiting extradition to Mexico, where she had been accused of procuring underage girls for Andrade.

Trevi was acquitted of all charges in 2004 and has since resuming her pop career.
