05 July 2021 "Maradona's friend", the woman who had "escaped from Hollywood to avoid falling into the damned cocaine" and the creator of slogans such as "to make love well you have to come south". the Argentine newspaper El Clarín remembers Raffaella Carrà, who died today at the age of 78 in Rome. Speaking of her "idyll with Latin America", El Clarín describes an "Italy in shock" for the death of Carrà And he underlines how his "Tuca Tuca scandalized the Vatican, but Raffaella emerged triumphant from that unusual battle".



'' The last time he set foot in Argentina was in 2005 to visit Maradona at 'La noche del 10' '', recalls El Clarín, who describes how on that occasion the Carrà '' danced as if she had not passed 60 years old and dribbled the million dollar question: 'An old love affair with Diego? He was an inveterate seducer. '' '



The 'Nación' website also publishes the news of Carrà's death on its front page with three articles. The newspaper writes that '' in Latin America it was 'Noche de Gigantes', Don Francisco's popular program in Chile, that gave her the keys to an entire continent. After that consecrating passage through Chile, in 1978 he arrived in Argentina at the time of the military dictatorship that ruled the country. In that period of censorship he changed his 'to make love well you must come to the south' into the most naive 'to fall in love well you must come to the south' ''.



'' Argentina will remember her, among many other traces, for being the inspiring muse of Susana Giménez '', writes El Clarín, stating that the transmission '' Hola Susana was inspired by Pronto, Raffaella ''. In a long article, the newspaper recalls how the Carrà arrived '' in Buenos Aires during the military dictatorship. He starred in the Argentine film 'Barbara' with Jorge Martínez, directed by Gino Landi (in 1980) and filled theaters and stadiums. ''
