Gloria Estefan once worked as a customs interpreter when she was at college.
The Rhythm is Gonna Get You singer spent three years helping translate French and Spanish into English for border control police and she admits she saw some weird things.
Estefan tells U.S. chat show host Chelsea Handler, "There was 250 grand in cash, which was the first time I had ever seen that much money. I was 17.
"I saw an old lady that looked like she was 90, with lots of kilos of cocaine hidden in a hairdryer, but the topper (highlight) was a nun that was trying to smuggle salami on a rope between her legs under her habit... I don't know if it was her date or her lunch but she was happy.
"How do you tell a nun, 'Sister, surrender the salami please?'"
