In the bustling streets of Mexico City, an alarming situation has come to light regarding Alejandro Landero, a well-known Televisa actor.

Reports indicate he has taken shelter in a public park in the Colonia Condesa neighborhood, accompanied by several cats and a dog he has adopted.
Aid Sought for Televisa Actor Found Homeless
Currently, Alejandro Landero is in search of temporary housing, preferably for a month. His location is noted as on Mazatlán Street, between Juan de la Barrera and Agustín Melgar. A local community account shared information about his struggles, which have been exacerbated by a lack of work and financial stability.
Background of Alejandro Landero
Throughout his career, Landero has appeared in multiple telenovelas, including:
- “Pasión y Poder” (1988)
- “Monte Calvario” (1986)
- “Blanca Vidal” (1982)
- “Un Rostro en mi pasado” (1989)
Despite his career achievements, Landero’s recent circumstances have drawn attention, particularly since rumors regarding his disappearance from the public eye had circulated in 2020. These rumors included speculation about his death, although the reasons for his current situation remain unclear.
The Wider Context of Homelessness Among Actors
This case of Landero mirrors challenges faced by other actors in the industry. For example, Renata Flores, another Televisa actress, also faced a daunting struggle with homelessness. In 2020, she was found living in her vehicle along with her dogs. After intervention from the Asociación Nacional de Actores (ANDA), she was relocated to “Casa del Actor”, a housing facility designed for performers in need.
According to David Rencoret, a fellow actor, Flores initially hesitated to enter the shelter due to pandemic-related fears. She expressed a desire to minimize contact with others until her pets, particularly one with a visual impairment, could receive necessary medical attention. Rencoret noted her preference to delay further engagement until she felt secure in her situation.
The stories of both Landero and Flores highlight a growing need for support and resources for actors facing homelessness. As their struggles unfold, the call for community assistance and awareness becomes increasingly urgent.
