She arrived in Spain in the 70s. She soon got the public into her pocket with her joy and her self-confidence. We met her as a singer, presenter and dancer.
Her perpetual smile and her optimism were decisive in the Spain of the seventies.
Happiness and giving all the energy she could to her audience was her great latemotivation.
She knew how to emphasize like few others what was important and her “to make love you have to come to the south”, was more than questioned and she even adapted herself to the south of Spain.
She was the diva who fought for freedom and when she showed her navel here she had already scandalised the pope with her well-known Tuca-tuca.

The well-known Italian showwoman died at the age of 78 yesterday, Monday 5th, in Rome as a result of lung cancer, which she had been suffering from for some time, although it had not been revealed until now.

Her death has shocked millions of fans all over the world, as in addition to working in Italy, she was very popular in Spain, Argentina, Chile, Mexico and Peru.

In Spain, she was extraordinarily popular from the 1970s onwards and was awarded the medal for civil merit in 1985 and named Dama de la Orden del mérito civil in 2018, but her greatest legacy is her amusing songs that many of us have sung at some time or another.


She has left us but in our memory, she will always reign and in eternity will sound something of Raffaella Carrà.
