Cris Morena replied to the criticism for choosing thin actors in her soap operas
The historic production company faced accusations about the aesthetics of its casts and made its stance clear
In an interview with Oriana Sabatini, the creator of Chiquititas and Rebelde Way spoke about the controversy. "They say I want all skinny people, but what I'm trying in my casts is for people to be healthily nourished," she asserted.
For Cris Morena, the choice of her cast responds to an artistic vision, not to ideological demands.

The pain for her daughter Romina Yan
In the same interview, Cris Morena also spoke about her daughter, Romina Yan, and the accusations linking her to alleged eating disorders. "At first I thought there was a lot of my guilt because Romina had an issue with food. They throw it in my face all the time, as if I had killed my daughter," she expressed with pain.
Romina Yan passed away in 2010 due to an aneurysm. Although the cause of her death was not related to her weight, there are those who seek to blame her mother.

Actor Germán Tripel revealed that his wife, Florencia Otero, received a recommendation from Cris Morena when she wanted to join Chiquititas. "When Flor wanted to join, they told her she had to go on a diet," he recounted on Ángel de Brito's streaming.
What at another time would have gone unnoticed, today becomes a media scandal.
