In this time of upheaval and unrest, it’s comforting to know there’s still Charo. Charo has always been, and it seems Charo always will be. The vivacious ball of energy that is Charo jokes, strums, sings and dances; goodness, does she dance—even when she’s not dancing, she’s dancing, moving in rhythmic bounces that captivated audiences since her appearances on those boxy picture tubes long ago in the Beforetimes. It’s amazing and worth celebrating that in 2025, Charo is still shimmying and cuchi cuchi-ing her way across stages, the very definition of the often abused and overused word icon.
