In the late 1980s, she made public her homosexuality and publicly confessed her romance with fellow singer Sandra Mihanovich.[3] Although her confession was unprecedented in the memory of a still fairly inexperienced in basic issues country, this did not affect her career.[4]

Among her best known songs are "¿Seré judía?", "Me vuelvo cada día más loca", "Es la vida que me alcanza", "Mi último blues", "Mujer contra mujer" and "Una canción diferente".[5][6]
