Lucecita Ceballos Recounts Early Pay and Lost 'Nubeluz' Chance in New Interview

She says her partner's stance against television shaped pivotal decisions in her rise from gym instructor to the screen.

Overview

  • Speaking on the podcast Cafe con la Chévez, Ceballos shared new details about her early years in Peru and her path into entertainment.
  • She recalled earning 20 soles per hour teaching spinning and steps at a gym, which she described as hard-won income that covered basics.
  • Ceballos said she moved to Peru at 17 and met her future husband before finishing school, noting he is 15 years older.
  • She recounted being offered a casting to play Cindela on the children's show Nubeluz but says she did not pursue it after her husband's objection that television was "the devil."
  • After the gym job, she took work as a hostess, a move she credits with opening opportunities in modeling and later television.
