Andrea Nocetti

Andrea María Nocetti Gómez (sometimes spelled Andrea Noceti) is a Colombian model, actress, and former Miss Colombia. She was born on 18 March 1978 in Cartagena de Indias.

Nocetti started her career as a model. She became Miss Colombia, representing Cartagena, in November 2000. Her first television appearance was in 2004, appearing in the Caracol TV reality show La Granja Tolima, and on the 2005 telenovela El pasado no perdona. In 2007, she played the evil Fernanda Sanmiguel de Ferreira on the Caracol TV telenovela Nuevo Rico Nuevo Pobre. In 2009, she appeared in Bermúdez, also as the evil Lucía Congote.

Nocetti starred in the 2008 Colombian film Ni te cases ni te embarques, opposite Víctor Hugo Cabrera.

Controversy with David Letterman

In May 2001, David Letterman joked about the 'special talent' which Noceti, the then-reigning Miss Colombia, possessed - that she was able to "swallow 50 balloons full of heroin" for the (non-existent) talent competition in the Miss Universe 2001 pageant. The remark not only infuriated the beauty queen, but also the people of Colombia.[1]

Nocetti threatened to sue Letterman but later withdrew the threat after Letterman formally apologized to her in the Late Show with David Letterman. Letterman invited the beauty queen to appear on his show as a gesture of appeasement.[2][3][4]

gollark: And yours seems to be doing some bizarre thing where it's hardcoding a table of the different things it should print for each modulus.
gollark: You can include "fizzbuzz" and stuff inline in the python version, but not in the assembly version.
gollark: No, I mean your code also relies on the data bits.
gollark: Er, that's a bad comparison.
