La Derecha Diario América TV: Bicho Gómez explained why he was removed from Lapegüe's show
The actor explained why he is no longer part of Lape Club Social and how he experienced his departure from the program
El Bicho Gómez spoke for the first time about his departure from Lape Club Social, the show hosted by Sergio Lapegüe on América TV. His exit occurred amid a shift in the show's focus, which moved from comedy to politics and crime.
The actor clarified that it was difficult for him to maintain his role in that new context. He confessed that, although he continues with theater projects, losing a job always has an impact.
"They called me to do comedy, but the show changed"
In an interview with Jeremías Sierra for Mediodía Bien Arriba (TV Pública), El Bicho Gómez explained that his participation gradually diminished as the weeks went by.
"I don't know the internal details. They invited me to do a certain type of show, but it started shifting...," he pointed out. According to him, the show began to take on a profile more connected to politics and hard news, which made it difficult to find space for comedy.
"I like making people laugh. Period"
The artist made it clear what his calling is: to make people laugh and entertain. "Shows need to have an identity. They were searching for theirs along the way," he added.
El Bicho Gómez: “Me llamaron para hacer humor, pero el programa cambió”
Despite his departure, he did not show any resentment. He admitted that the change was understandable and that the channel needed to adapt to what the audience was asking for.
Another departure from Lape Club Social
Sergio Lapegüe's show on América TV, which began in March, has already undergone several changes in its team. At the end of April, chef Jordi Klad was let go, and later Marina Calabró reduced her appearances, being replaced by Paula Varela.
Now, Ángel de Brito revealed more changes. According to him, El Bicho Gómez and Mai Pistiner are no longer part of the show. The departure of Mica Lapegüe was also considered, but the host reportedly opposed it.
"It's frustrating to be left without a job, even if there are other opportunities"
Toward the end of the interview, Gómez acknowledged that he always has theater as a backup, but that doesn't prevent the difficult moment that comes with losing a spot on TV.
"It's always frustrating to be left without a job," he expressed sincerely, though without dramatizing. He concluded with his trademark: "My thing is making people laugh and ensuring people have a good time. Nothing more."
