Bambino cantaba aquello de "soy lo prohibido". Ella es La Prohibida. Y además, canta. Emperatriz de las noches más locas, musa de los tugurios y la presencia escénica más brillante del underground español. Quizá la hayas visto presentando a Fangoria o incluso actuar con ellos. A lo mejor la has visto en algún cortometraje de culto y puede que hayas oído hablar de esas fiestas, las de "En plan travesti", que ella misma ideó y que hoy causan furor en Madrid y demás ciudades españolas por las que pasan.
