American Colony | The Latino Newsletter Podcast
For decades, Iris Chacón dazzled Puerto Ricans with her hit TV show, becoming one of the most recognizable Latinas in entertainment. Celebrated for her body and her wit, “La Vedette de América” challenged the beauty standards and expectations imposed on Puerto Rican women at home and abroad. Raquel Reichard traces Iris’ influence through her own family and the new generation of burlesque, drag, and cabaret artists carrying La Chacón forward today. This episode of American Colony was produced by Raquel Reichard and Locatora Productions. It was edited by Nuria Net.
