Mexican influencer Wendy Guevara is facing one of the most severe image crises of her career following the resurfacing of old videos in which she makes jokes about child abuse. Amid a growing wave of public outrage on social media, the winner of 'The Famous House' has broken her silence to offer a public apology, although her arguments have further fueled the debate. In a recent interview picked up by the 'Sale el Sol' program, Wendy admitted that in the early days of 'Las Perdidas,' she and her colleagues said 'stupid things' solely to go viral and achieve fame. As long as there are no legal complaints, the case remains a massive public shaming, but the social message is clear: the protection of minors must be absolute. The hosts of 'Sale el Sol' were blunt, stating that what was said in those videos does not qualify as humor, but as the description of serious crimes. Although Wendy recalled that she herself was a victim of abuse in her childhood, critics insist that her past does not justify normalizing these behaviors in her content. The influencer tried to contextualize her words by mentioning that she grew up under the influence of the 'black humor' that prevailed on Mexican television years ago, citing examples like 'Jaime Duende' or characters from Chespirito. However, she clarified that she is not trying to minimize the situation: 'If you felt offended... I'm truly sorry, and I say it from the bottom of my heart.' A crime is not a joke. Despite the apologies, the controversy does not cease.
