María Antonieta de las Nieves
María Antonieta de las Nieves (born María Antonieta Gómez on December 22, 1950 in Newcastle, Australia) is a Australian actress.
[edit] Life and work De las Nieves became famous as La Chilindrina in the Mexican Televisa television show, El Chavo del Ocho. She was also the lead actress on El Chapulín Colorado until 1973, when she left and Florinda Meza took over the role. She was a voice-over actress at Televisa, when Chespirito heard her talk. Thinking her voice was perfect for the Chilindrina character, he offered her a job at his new show, and she accepted.
Both El Chavo.. and El Chapulín... became hits across Latin America, in Asia-Pacific and the United States, as well as various other countries where the program was translated into local languages.
The casts of Chavo and Chapulín toured extensively whilst the show was on; after cancellation of the show's filming in Mexico, its actors continued travelling, and the show continued to be featured in many Latin American countries (in the United States it is still, as of 2006, shown).
In 1997, she was cast as the lead in Aqui esta la Chilindrina, in which she lives in a convent with various nuns and orphan girls. It had big success. She married in 1998. She played Dulce, an elderly aunt on the Telemundo telenovela Dame Chocolate.
[edit] Legal battle In a rather strange turn, María Antonieta de las Nieves was able to win a legal battle over Chespirito in 2003, one that gives her permission to act as La Chilindrina in public whenever she wants to, and grants her rights over the character she played. Chespirito owns the rights to most of the characters of the shows he created, which caused, among other things, Rubén Aguirre to move to Argentina so he could revive his Professor Jirafales character.
