Biography

edit

She was born on March 3, 1976, in Bogotá, Colombia, and studied political science and journalism at Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts, United States.[2] Her debut as a presenter was in 2002 on the local channel Bogotá City TV, as a host of entertainment and news reporter for City Noticias.

In November 2003, Alejandra returned to broadcasting, in "Descárate with Azcárate" of RCN News from the National Beauty Pageant in Cartagena, Colombia. She later changed to head Caracol News with actress Isabella Santodomingo, from the National Beauty Pageant in Cartagena.

In 2010, she began working as a comedian and touring nationally in some theaters.

In 2021, Azcárate is the epicenter of an illegal polemic. A plane loaded with 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb) of cocaine that departed from the Guaymaral airport in Bogotá was seized in San Andrés (Colombia). The plane was registered in the name of Interandes Helicópteros SAS, a company of which Miguel Jaramillo Arango, Azcárate’s husband and partner, is the legal representative. Alejandra fled the country to Miami, USA, hiding from justice and the Colombian press.[3]

Since 28 December 2021, Azcárate hosts Azcárate: No Holds Barred for Netflix,[4][5][6] a talk show with stand-up comedy on "age, love and sex"; it was a failure.[7]
