Almost two decades after the Ugly Duck phenomenon, Brenda Asnicar and Laura Esquivel returned to the center of the scene. In the midst of their tour of Spain, where they promote the return of the show to theaters, both were surprised to speak with total sincerity about the money they earned during the success of the
strip.It was in an interview with the podcast Supe Zeta that the actresses made it clear that, despite the massive impact of the show, their income was not up to the phenomenon.
“We earned the minimum minimum an actor can earn. It was always the minimum,” Asnicar said, revealing a reality that tends to remain hidden in the industry
.For its part, Esquivel added a fact that attracted attention: the income from the songs did not represent a significant difference either. “Yes, there is our right as interpreters, but it's nothing,” he explained
.The statements generated surprise, especially considering that the series was not only a television success, but also a musical success, with international tours and a strong impact throughout Latin America and Europe.
During the talk, the driver was straight to the point: “So they didn't get rich with Ugly Ducky?” . Brenda's response, laughingly, quickly went viral: “The soul, the heart and the love. In the account, it was enough and it's worth much more.”
