Alejandra Guzmán
'La Guzman' spoke about her addiction problems in 2021 during an interview with 'Venga la alegría'. There she explained that excesses were part of her job, because that aspect called her attention a lot in the eighties to the point that she didn't even invite people to her parties, but rather they came alone.
For that reason, when she hit rock bottom, she opted to find a better social environment and focus on her work instead of partying, since several friends from that time were only with her for her celebrity status and money.

Of course, after her reign, Manchado chose to venture into other areas, so her charming personality and great beauty helped her stand out as a presenter and actress.
