The album was her first record released in Spain and Brazil, and Rubio did a performed as a special guest in the Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

Rubio played Claudia Romero, a rich young girl who dies in an accident while riding her motorcycle, and is later returned to Earth, but in other body, to make amends for her mistakes. Although her acting received critics mixed, the film was a box office success and staying on the Mexican main billboard for six weeks.<ref name="taquilla">{{cite web|title=Dice Paulina que le falta "riqueza" espiritual|url=http://h.elsiglodetorreon.com.mx/Default/Scripting/ArticleWin.asp?From=Search&Key=EDT/1995/09/30/40/Ar04000.xml&CollName=EDT_1990_1999&DOCID=1927339&PageLabelPrint=40&skin=ElSiglo&AppName=2&sLanguage=English&Content=ALL&selLanguage=&sPublication=EDT&sDateFrom=01%252F01%252F1995&sDateTo=12%252F31%252F1995&dummy=1995&sQuery=paulina%2brubio%2bEl%2bTiempo%2bEs%2bOro%2bcopias&x=0&y=0&ViewMode=GIF|date=30 September 1995|access-date=18 April 2019|work=[[El Siglo de Torreón]]|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160209061027/http://h.elsiglodetorreon.com.mx/Default/Scripting/ArticleWin.asp?From=Search&Key=EDT/1995/09/30/40/Ar04000.xml&CollName=EDT_1990_1999&DOCID=1927339&PageLabelPrint=40&skin=ElSiglo&AppName=2&sLanguage=English&Content=ALL&selLanguage=&sPublication=EDT&sDateFrom=01%252F01%252F1995&sDateTo=12%252F31%252F1995&dummy=1995&sQuery=paulina%2Brubio%2BEl%2BTiempo%2BEs%2BOro%2Bcopias&x=0&y=0&ViewMode=GIF|archive-date=9 February 2016|language=es|url-status=dead}}</ref> As well, she starred as one of the main characters on ''[[Pobre Niña Rica]]'', her third telenovela, and recorded two versions of the opening song. In August 1995, Rubio guest-starred on the ''El Corazón de Emeteveo'' [[MTV|MTV Latino]]'s show.<ref>{{cite magazine |first1=John |last1=Lannert |title=Latin Notas |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=xw0EAAAAMBAJ&q=emeteveo&pg=PA37 |magazine=Billboard |date=2 September 1995 |access-date=31 May 2021 |page=37}}</ref> In 1996, Rubio changed her conventional music style to avant-garde sounds. She co-produced her fourth studio album ''[[Planeta Paulina]]'' with Marco Flores. The music critics praised it "a sensational album, full of feelings and enthusiasm" inspired in [[dance-pop]], [[euro-pop]], [[Disco music|disco]], [[House music|house]], [[Electronic music|electronic]] and [[Techno Music|techno]] styles. Rubio assumed more creative control by writing and co-producing most of the material. The album didn't matched the commercial success of its predecessors, despite it produced four singles: "[[Siempre Tuya Desde La Raíz]]", "[[Solo Por Ti]]", "Miedo" and "Enamorada". She also recorded English versions of several songs which did not appear on the album, but were included in the remixes or maxi-singles versions of the songs, such as "Open Up Your Hear", "Only For You" and "I'm So In Love". EMI Music declined to release Rubio's first English crossover album, which was supposed to be the English version of the ''Planeta Paulina'' album due to weak sales of the Spanish version. Subsequently, she got into a legal battle against the record label for not fulfilling what they had already planned. Despite the modest success of ''Planeta Paulina'', songs like "Una Historia Más"—a song about [[HIV/AIDS]]—and "Enamorada" introduced Rubio to the [[gay community]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Top 20 himnos contra el sida |date=December 2020 |url=https://shangay.com/2020/12/01/himnos-vih-sida-musica-divas/ |publisher=Shangay |access-date=1 June 2021 |archive-date=2 June 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210602215454/https://shangay.com/2020/12/01/himnos-vih-sida-musica-divas/ |url-status=live }}</ref> In particular the music video for "Enamorada", which showed a homosexual couple and the rainbow flag openly on television. A theme that was still considered a taboo at that time.<ref>{{cite web |title=Danna Paola se enamora de un chico gay |url=https://cscnoticias.com/espectaculos/danna-paola-se-enamora-de-un-chico-gay/ |website=cscnoticias.com |date=7 February 2020 |publisher=CSC Noticias |access-date=1 June 2021 |archive-date=2 June 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210602214151/https://cscnoticias.com/espectaculos/danna-paola-se-enamora-de-un-chico-gay/ |url-status=live }}</ref> The album's promotion spread throughout Latin America until 1997.
