She is of Spanish and Italian heritage; her great-grandfather was an immigrant from Muro Lucano, province of Potenza.[1] She grew up in an evangelical Christian family and has stated that she is a devout Christian.[2]
Lopilato made her first guest appearance in the television series Chiquititas in 1997 at the age of 10 and then she made her debut in the television series Mi familia es un dibujo in 1998 at the age of 11, and continued working as a child model and starring in TV commercials, which is something she started at the age of 5.

Lopilato began her career as a singer in the TV series that launched her to fame, Chiquititas. In 2000, she participated in the album with other actors from the series. The final part of the series was premiered in 2001.

Benjamín Rojas, Lopilato, Felipe Colombo and Camila Bordonaba were the actors chosen for the series and the group. They released three studio albums: Señales (2002), Tiempo (2003) and Memoria (2004).
Two years later, as the group dissolved, the series was sold to Spain and the success of its music lead to a fourth and fifth album, this time a compilation entitled, El Disco de Rebelde Way (2006) and Erreway en Concierto (2006), and a show in Israel in 2004.
In 2008 and 2009, Lopilato was in the series Atracción x4, with her brother Darío Lopilato. The series generated another band which released two albums that received gold certification in Argentina.
