Biography

Virginia Lago was born in San Martín in the north of Greater Buenos Aires on 22 May 1946.[1] Until age 20 she resided in Villa Ballester. She attended primary school at Roberto Noble School No. 11, and Tomás Guido secondary school in San Martín. She is the cousin of actress Zully Moreno and the aunt of actress Fabiana García Lago.[2]

In 1963 she had a prominent performance in the play Pygmalion.[3] She studied Theater with Marcelo Lavalle [es] and Roberto Durán [es] at the Institute of Modern Art and learned from many other actors. In 1966 she appeared on the well-received program Galería Polyana, which was broadcast on weekdays from May to October on Channel 9 with scripts by the theatrical author Clara Giol Bressan and a cast that included Susana Campos, Fanny Navarro, Enzo Viena, Ricardo Passano, Patricia Shaw [es], Aída Luz, María José Demare [es], Nelly Darén [es], and Gloria Raines [es].[4]

Internet meme

As a result of the series that Virginia Lago hosted on Telefe, around March 2012, her image became the subject of an Internet meme in which her way of speaking and acting is parodied.[5] Videos in which she is imitated have circulated on YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.[6] In the parodies, emphasis is placed on Lago's unhurried tone, the diminutives and temperance in her speech, and her recurring catchphrase ¡maravilloso! (wonderful) to describe a situation. Lago acknowledged that she initially cried about these jokes, but then took them with humor.[7]
