Gajardo from an early age, she chose to
become an exotic dancer and take care of
her figure, since that is her best asset. Her
hard work and dedication open the doors
for her to be portrait in the cover of SEXY
X2 Magazine.
Originally from Rancagua, Chile, today
she is a well known dancer in the south of
her country.
Tell us what gave you the possibility to be
an exotic dancer, and at what age you did
you start in this profession?
I started to dance when I was 17 years old.
It always seduce me the idea to be a danc-
er, my dream was to be a vedette, which is
a term used in some Latin American coun-
tries to describe female singers and enter-
tainers skilled in Latin styles of singing
and/or dancing and/or acting. Equivalent
English terms are diva, bombshell, and
showgirl. Unfortunately in Chile there no
revues show of this kind, so I choose strip-
tease instead. As that, I was able to display
all the seduction I have inside, and it was
as close to work as a vedette. I danced for
nine years. That time, I remember as one
of the most beautiful period in my profes-
sional life. I was always very responsible
and one hundred percent dedicated to what
I did. My clothes, music production had
to be perfect; on top of that, I did a lot of
rehearsing at home to ensure that the show
to be perfect.
Taking care of my figure took a lot of
my time, since to the nude demanded
physically flawless. Now I am retired,
but I work hard producing events for my
boyfriend’s club, but always in the same
line of striptease. I will never regret what I
did professionally, that was one of the best
experiences in my life and it’s what many
woman would love to do and exploit their
seductive side and feel desired by all men.
In addition, Chile in the 60’s, was very
successful for the vedette; there was a very
famous place that even today is remem-
bered with nostalgia, named Bin Bam
Bum and, according to my grandmother,
three of my aunts debuted in this place an
become very famous, so I think that runs
in my blood.
Historically, Chile has maintained a very
conservative society, and I guess being
from Rancagua, which is a smaller city
than Santiago de Chile, is even more so.
How your family took your decision to
become an exotic dancer?
At the beginning everybody was in shock
because I come from a very conservative
family, and for my mother and grandmoth-
er to have a daughter or granddaughter
that danced was hard to accept but eventu-
ally they understood and supported me all
the way. The one that supported the most
was my mother, but people talk a lot about
my artistic decision. Where I grew up is a
small village called “Machalí” (witches’
place in the indigenous language) but I do
not regreted because what I did was my
passion.
When someone would ask my mother
if my job was to get undress, she would
responded: “No, my daughter is a star”. To
