Cardeño, who underwent a sex change when she was 17 years old, shot to fame as a popular star of the soap opera "Los Reyes" ("The Kings") and has since acted in several films.
The transsexual actress from Cucuta, Colombia, is an icon for LBGT (lesbian, bisexual, gay, transgender) rights, although she says that love is more important to her than the legal right to marry.
