Charo (born sometime between 1941 and 1951 on perhaps on 16 January), is a Spanish-American actress, singer, comedienne and flamenco guitarist.
Adapting to Your Environment
In an interview, she said, "Around the world I am known as a great musician. But in America I am known as the cuchi-cuchi girl. That’s okay, because cuchi-cuchi has taken me all the way to the bank.” —- Wikipedia
I’ve read reports that sometimes Charo
Felt a wistful sort of sorrow,
About her dubious position;
The world accepted her ambition
To have a career as a musician,
But in the States, it was a phrase,
That cause a “cuchi-cuchi” craze.
The fad, of course, was just a phase
But in sedater later days
She had these syllables to thank
For lots of money in the bank.
