This is of no surprise after considering that her father Gilbert Mamery was recognized as one of the world class experts in documenting Gardel's biography and music.
At the request of her brother Eric William, Gricel performed comedy/woman themes at her father's radio station, WTIL-AM.
Follow the end of the radio show performance in 1990, Gricel accepted a job as the head hostess of Mayagüez Hilton Hotel's Night Club.
Due to her quick wit, beauty and physical assets (she needed a breast lift after giving birth to her son and made this decision public; while gossip columnists incorrectly theorized about an augmentation, she was "all natural" at the time) she got plenty of attention from the media, often appearing in gossip magazine columns in local magazines Vea and TeVe Guia.
In part her sense of humor was subdued by a personal struggle: her husband had a bout with cancer (from which he has successfully recovered from since), and her father died.
They currently host "Gozando en la mañana", a morning talk show, on Fidelity 95 radio in San Juan.
Gricel became an occasional color reporter on Puerto Rican lifestyle and pop culture for Despierta América, starting in 2007.
Mamery and other public media companions (including Arrieta, Ceriani, and former Despierta América teammate Ana María Canseco) were at the balcony of one of the rooms of the Old San Juan on January 13, 2012.
While Mamery was greeting the audience gathered below, Ceriani lifter her blouse and groped her breasts, which were covered with a brassiere lined in golden lamé.
This led at least one gossip columnist to speculate about a possible reprisal from Rúa about the Central American and Caribbean Games' controversy as a motivation for the firing.
The incident became a subject of public opinion and controversy in Puerto Rican media and social networks for over two weeks.
Mamery kept silent about the controversy for about a week, but not before her older brother Topy, a media figure in his own right, denounced his sister's being taken advantage of by Ceriani and Arrieta's passive acceptance.
Gricel then issued a written press brief denouncing that she had been publicly humiliated and fired without allowing her side of the story to be told.
