Neighbors in the area explained that the actor has been sleeping outdoors for three nights, together with his four cats and a small dog. Verónica Hernández, a resident of the neighborhood, recorded a video in which she made an appeal to the community: “I ask for your support so that our neighbor, Alejandro Landero, someone could help him. He is homeless, he has four kittens and a dog.
They are very calm, he has even kept the kittens in these carriers so that they cannot escape. He is asking for support, I don’t know if someone could please help him for a month at the most so that he can have a roof over his head”. The neighbor also said: “Unfortunately, he has been here for three nights already, we have not been able to find any place, any space, I hope someone could help us.
In advance, neighbors, I thank you and as they say: we never know when we may need someone, today for you, tomorrow for me”. In social networks, neighbors began to disseminate publications to get him shelter. The images of the actor, sitting on a bench next to his belongings and his animals, have moved hundreds of people, who began to share his story on networks and local media in the hope of finding him a decent shelter.
The publications about her situation generated diverse reactions. Some users showed empathy, while others made reflections on the need for solidarity and personal responsibility. “It’s not about criticizing and giving negative opinions and as any being a hand to offer help to him and his pets,” said one person.
On the other hand, another supportive user said: “I hope he finds shelter, but maybe the person who is telling the story can take him to the actor’s house and there he can be accepted”, while someone else commented that “We will all need at some point, we all have mistakes, faults, ups and downs, but we should never judge life; it is a roulette, if he was bad and did nothing with his money, we should not judge him”.
One commenter wrote: “How sad. I don’t know what happened with what he earned, but there should be support from the TV network he worked for, and if not, someone should offer him a job so that he and his little animals can be better off.”
Other comments showed a harsher stance: “The truth is that no one will ever wish to end up like that, but here I ask why help him? If he was a soap opera star, he wasn’t badly paid, didn’t he reinvest it or did he squander the money like many others when he reaches glory?
Besides, if he is in a street situation, he should go and look for a job like 90% of Mexicans,” he said.
The messages reflect a division between those who believe that his trajectory deserves respect and help, and those who think that personal responsibility is key in the face of adversity. Watch the video where they show the reality of Alejandro Landero.
The actor’s case shows the most vulnerable side of the figures who once occupied the small screen. From fame in emblematic productions of the 80’s to the uncertainty of the streets, his story shows the fragility of life in show business and the importance of empathy.
Meanwhile, Condesa neighbors and some fans continue to search for ways to provide refuge for him and his faithful companions.
