The 46-year-old actress made her debut in the acting world in 1981 with the TV series "Tacones". The subject, she said, "is dealt with in a realistic and very human manner, because it lets you see that some people enter this world as victims of circumstance".

In 1997, she recorded her first solo disc, and has since been regularly performing, recording and contributing to numerous TV soundtracks while actively maintaining her acting career. The role catapulted de Francisco into the spotlight and captured the imagination of public, as fans still refer to her by her alter-ego’s name.ĭe Francisco’s life as a musician and songwriter began when she recorded “Cafe Con Aroma de Mujer” (“Coffee with the Scent of a Woman”), a romantic bolero with subtle touches of a slow cumbia that was the main theme the much-acclaimed 1994 telenovela of the same name, in which she also appeared as the central romantic character. In 1986, her hard work resulted in a breakthrough when she landed the part of “La Niña Mencha” on Colombian telenovela Gallito Ramirez.
In the interim, she found time to study French, English and Portuguese, all while developing her acting chops. The daughter of a musician father and a fashion designer mother, Colombian-born singer-songwriter and actress Margarita Rosa de Francisco started her career juggling the roles of model and thespian in the early 80s, and she actually represented her native country during the 1985 Miss Universe pageant.
