She is most famous for her portrayal in Married… With Children as one of the dancers at a strip club named The Jiggly Room, a venue frequently visited by the show’s lead character Al Bundy and his companions.

Cindyana featured on the 1996 episode The Agony And The Extra C, playing stripper Sierra Madre, who sends the men at The Jiggly Room wild by showing them the birthday present she gave her boyfriend – a tattoo of his name on an intimate part of her body.

Bowled over by her romantic gesture, Jefferson (Ted McGinley) tries to get a tattoo on his backside in honor of his wife Marcy (Amanda Bearse), with disastrous results.

Cindyana was also known for her appearance in Hollywood Homicide – which starred Harrison Ford and Josh Hartnett.

Her nickname ‘the Latin Marilyn Monroe’ originated by Perry Farrell of Jane’s Addiction, who called her that in an interview with Spin Magazine. 

Cindyana also starred in a number of music videos, including Young MC’s Bust A Move, which was released in 1989. 

In 1990, her voice was featured in the beginning of Jane’s Addiction’s song Stop.
