Meet the Cast of ‘Women Wearing Shoulder Pads’

Meet the Cast of 'Women Wearing Shoulder Pads'

Meet Isabela de la Cruz-Suárez – a fabulously wealthy Spanish-Ecuadorian heiress navigating the absurdist hellscape of her gilded existence. Between snorting artisanal achiote powder and hosting cuy (guinea pig) tasting parties for oligarchs, Isabela grapples with familial backstabbing, predatory commercial auditions, and lovers who may just be after her vintage Chanel shoulder pads. This is not your abuela’s telenovela.

From the creators of The Jellies! comes a deranged animated satire where colonial guilt collides with influencer culture. Watch Isabela weaponize her privilege against salsa-dancing debt collectors, hallucinate conversations with conquistador ancestors, and outmaneuver cousins plotting to steal her beloved pet cuy, “Señor Fluffy.” With every power-shouldered strut through Quito’s elite, Isabela redefines drama – one surreal meltdown at a time. Buckle up for bourgeois chaos.

The Voices Behind the Madness:

1. Pepa Pallarès as [Isabela / Main Family Matriarch]

Spanish voice legend Pepa Pallarès (The SimpsonsFuturama dubs) brings razor-sharp comedic timing to the lead role(s). Her versatile range—shifting from Isabela’s haughty Castilian purr to her Ecuadorian abuela’s withering quiteño slang—creates a symphony of generational delusion. Pallarès’ decades of dubbing absurdity make her Adult Swim royalty.

Whether voicing Isabela’s manic monologues about “ethical colonialism” or a chain-smoking aunt obsessed with cuy horoscopes, Pallarès injects tragic grandeur into every line. Her performance turns existential dread into high art, proving shoulder pads are indeed armor against a crumbling world.

2. Gabriela Cartol as [The Envious Sister / Commercial Director]

Mexican star Gabriela Cartol (Tuca & BertieMidnight Gospel) masters chaotic energy. She likely voices Isabela’s passive-aggressive sister and the unhinged director of bizarre commercials (e.g., “Cuy-Cola: Taste the Colonial Aftertaste!”). Cartol’s signature blend of honeyed malice and explosive neurosis fuels the show’s darkest laughs.

Cartol’s characters weaponize fake smiles. Her sisterly barbs (“Your cuy farm reeks of desperation, hermana“) clash hilariously with her ad exec persona demanding “More trauma in take 4!” – a meta-commentary on performative capitalism.

3. Kerygma Flores as [The Mystical Maid / Pet Cuy]

Ecuadorian artist Kerygma Flores (Villains of Valley View) steals scenes as both Consuelo (Isabela’s indigenous maid who speaks in cryptic prophecies) and Señor Fluffy (the nihilist guinea pig). Flores’ deadpan delivery and Quechua-inflected Spanish ground the surrealism in cultural specificity.

Her dual roles are the show’s secret heart: Consuelo’s mystical wisdom (“The shoulder pads… they drain your soul, patrona“) contrasts with Señor Fluffy’s inner monologue (“I crave the void… and kale”). Flores turns spiritual guidance and rodent despair into comedic gold.

4. Nina Torres as [The Gold-Digging Lover / Instagram Rival]

Colombian voice dynamo Nina Torres (Spine of NightHelluva Boss) embodies Alejandro—Isabela’s ambiguously-gendered lover—and Valentina, her Instagram rival posting “#DecolonizeMyFeed” thirst traps. Torres’ silky vocals ooze seductive menace and hollow wokeness.

Torres’ Alejandro purrs toxic affirmations (“Your generational wealth… so hot”), while Valentina’s influencer screech (“Your cuy aesthetic is PROBLEMATIC!”) epitomizes performative activism. Together, they satirize love and identity in the age of aesthetic capitalism.

5. Michelle Rodríguez as [The Ghost of Conquistadora Ancestor]

Action icon Michelle Rodríguez (Fast & Furious) unleashes her raspy intensity as Isabel de Ojeda, Isabela’s 16th-century ancestor who haunts her via gilded mirrors. Rodríguez’s conquistadora barks colonial justifications (“I genocided for THIS?!”), reframing historical trauma as dysfunctional family therapy.

Rodríguez’s ghost is a brutal id: shattering Isabela’s woke pretenses with lines like “Your cuy farm is on MY stolen land! Now pour me wine!”. Her cameos are violent, cathartic history lessons in power-shouldered armor.
