Last May, a new judicial setback was announced that fully affects Isabel Pantoja. The tonadillera maintains a large economic debt with Loli, the newsstand in her neighborhood in Seville, from which she requested 86,000 euros in 2014 to avoid going to prison in the framework of Operation Malaya.
The old woman managed to raise all the money thanks to her savings and thus help Isabel, a close friend of hers since the 80s. However, the years passed and the singer did not return more than a small part, so the matter ended in the courts. Although both parties have already reached an agreement, Loli still does not receive a large amount of money and she spoke about it this Friday in Así es la vida, from Telecinco.
A team from the program has traveled to the house of the newsstand, where they have attended to them by covering their faces with a sanitary mask and dark glasses. There, Loli has taken stock of the economic terms that she still has to pay the singer. “Money is needed by everyone,” she explained.
The woman remained undaunted when asked about her current relationship with Isabel Pantoja, which is, therefore, non-existent. However, she confesses that she still admires her “as an artist” since her professional side “has nothing to do” with her personal problems. “I do not take away from him as an artist what he is worth, because there is no other”, she has said.
Loli ‘la quiosquera’ couldn’t help but get excited when she remembered “almost 50 years of friendship” with Pantoja. “We have laughed, we have cried, we have enjoyed with the children …”, she reflected before the microphones of Así es la vida.
Now, the 82-year-old woman has no choice but to “wait” for the waters, little by little, to return to their course. “If everything goes right, what is stipulated and what is signed and what has to be fulfilled, if everything goes right, that’s it”, and sentences Isabel Pantoja with one last sentence: “It is forgiven, but it is not forgotten “.
