The daughter of mining engineer Manuel Pascual and decorator María del Rosario Berrocal, Yola Berrocal grew up in Pozuelo de Alarcón in Madrid, and studied Dramatic Art.

In 1997 she appeared as a dancer on the José Luis Moreno  [ es ] program Risas y estrellas.

In February 2006, Berrocal again appeared on the cover of Interviú, with the headline "I am going to put big tits in fashion in Spain." In the summer of that year she presented herself as a candidate for the mayorship of Marbella, creating the Yola Independiente Liberal (YIL) party, with the slogan "Marbella, because Yola is worth it." ^{[9] [10] [11]} Santiago Segura hired her in 2007 to work as a contributor to his program Sabías a lo que venías  [ es ] on LaSexta, where once a week she gave her personal opinion about books that she had previously read. She appeared on Sálvame  [ es ] in June 2009.

In 2012 she formed a new musical group, Atrevidas, with Sonia Monroy, whose best-known song was a cover of Sabrina's "Boys (Summertime Love)". ^[12] Since then she has worked as an image girl in nightclubs and announced mobile games through her Twitter account.
