Andrés Hurtado

Andrés Avelino Hurtado Grados (born January 31, 1966), also known by his stage name Chibolín, is a Peruvian television presenter, businessman, producer, dancer and comedian.

Once out of comedy, he began presenting the television program Porque hoy es sábado con Andrés, aired by Panamericana Televisión from 2014 to 2024, with charitable purposes for the lower classes.

[1][2] Known for his flamboyant, egocentric and controversial personality, charitable works and luxurious life,[3][4] Hurtado said he is an "envoy of God to save the earth"[5] and that he is an extraterrestrial.

[15] He was then a dancer in the circus group "El Principito", owned by Bertha León, leading him to explore the artistic environment, standing out in café theaters and performing cabaret shows.

Notable among them were then-first lady Keiko Fujimori, actress and television presenter Camucha Negrete,[16] child dancer Yola Polastri, and fictional characters such as María Mercedes and Luz Clarita.

One of the family members, Ana Siucho Neira (wife of footballer Edison Flores), accused him of influence peddling on the program Beto a saber.

[28] Siucho Neira also accused him of mediating the payment of one million dollars in bribes together with the money laundering prosecutor, Elizabeth Peralta, who was investigated for her ties to the Cuellos Blancos.

[citation needed] In April 2020, Hurtado spread on his television program and through his social networks that water with vinegar and lemon eliminated the virus from the throat.
