Pichot rose to fame in 2008, when she uploaded a video to YouTube after breaking up with her boyfriend, titled "La loca de mierda" (roughly translated "The Fucking Crazy Woman").[3] After a series of humorous La Loca de Mierda YouTube videos were viewed by millions of people, MTV Latin America hired Pichot to broadcast her videos on its website.[4]
