"La Chica Chiquitibum"
[edit]During the 1986 FIFA World Cup, hosted in Mexico City, Chiquitibum became associated with Spanish-born model and actress Mar Castro when she appeared in a Carta Blanca beer commercial featuring the chant. For the next four years, she toured Mexico, sponsored by the brewery.[1]
