Versatile Argentine artist Brenda Asnicar was born in Buenos Aires in 1991, and spent her childhood in a family environment dominated by the arts. Her brother is both a well-known musician and an established film director, holding a leading position in a company specialising in digital animation. Ever since her early childhood, Brenda Asnicar has shown a keen interest in the world of entertainment and attended the Italian Cultural Centre at Villa Adelina, where she perfected her Italian and English skills. «I have a strong connection to Italy. My paternal great-grandfather was born in Regato Terme in Vicenza. So the Asnicar surname comes from Veneto. I love Italian culture, I love the food and the people. For me it was like a dream come true to come back this time and perform the new Bandida Records songs. I'm experiencing a new stage in my life and in my career, and I'm getting so much love. So I want to thank Italy again, because Italy is an important part of my life.»

Brenda started taking singing lessons when she was still a child and made her television debut on the reality show Cantaniño at the age of eleven, initially as a chorus singer. She later successfully hosted two TV shows, including Chicos Argentinos alongside Pablo Arias. «It's not always easy to start working so early, but for me it was great because I always saw it as a passion and not a job. As time went on, of course, the rhythms became more demanding and I had a lot of responsibility. There were times when I had a lot to do and my life was not the same as my classmates. But I still feel happy because I was able to do what I dreamed of.»

Then came Antonella, the role that made her absolutely famous. «Antonella was an opportunity for me to do justice. I was inspired by the people who hurt me as a young girl at school and I created my character based on that kind of personality. The play was about bullying as an issue that affects all of us and our society. But over the course of the various episodes and as the plot developed, the character changes considerably. From the beginning, it didn't seem right to me to take Antonella seriously. That's why I added a lot of humour instead of portraying her as a villain. I was a bit scared because the evil character doesn't always get a lot of love, but I think the most important thing about Antonella is that she is funny. Those elements were the key to success: the love and the banter.»
