Denise has previously been nominated two times before for this Award for participation in “Ana in the Tropics” (won) and “Do�a Rosita.”

When discussing her role as the mischievous Madame who got kicks from playing mind games on the townsfolk, Denise told El Nuevo Dia “I am happy. I had the opportunity to explore all areas and do something I’ve never done before, because my previous characters were very simple and innocent.” (translated)
