Biography

Pichot rose to fame in 2008, when she uploaded a video to YouTube after breaking up with her boyfriend, titled "La loca de mierda" (roughly translated "The Fucking Crazy Woman").[3] After a series of humorous La Loca de Mierda YouTube videos were viewed by millions of people, MTV Latin America hired Pichot to broadcast her videos on its website.[4]

After having become an Internet celebrity, Pichot presented her stand-up show Concheta pero con gracia (roughly translated "posh but funny",[4]) and has been performing with Ezequiel Campa in the stand-up comedy show Campa-Pichot since 2010.[5]

In 2018, Pichot had a stand up special, Estupidez compleja (Complex Stupidity), air on Netflix. The show is about feminism and Argentine culture.[10]
