Background and release

EMI confirmed "Celestial" as the second single in January 2007. Originally, in late 2006, "Bésame Sin Miedo" was to be released as the official second single. Instead, plans were made to release "Bésame Sin miedo" in the rest of Latin America and release "Celestial" only in Mexico. Due to the group being too busy recording RBD: La Familia, promoting both albums (Celestial and Rebels) and touring around the world, plans to release "Bésame Sin Miedo" were postponed. Therefore, "Celestial" was released in Mexico on March 2007 and in the rest of Latin America the song was sent to radio stations at the end of April of that year.

Music video

The accompanying music video for "Celestial" was filmed nearby the Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl volcanos in Mexico City in February 11, 2007. It was directed by Esteban Madrazo, who also directed the video for "Ser o Parecer". The group members wear hippie outfits in the video. The video premiered in February 27, 2007 on Ritmoson Latino, a Televisa music channel in Mexico.[1]
