Edith Hermida took sides in the fight between Beto Casella and Yanina Latorre and surprised with her stance
Edith Hermida surprised the public by siding with Yanina Latorre in a dispute with Beto Casella, following homophobic comments made on a radio show.
A public feud has erupted between Argentine media personalities Beto Casella and Yanina Latorre after homophobic remarks made by Joe Fernández during the show "Nadie nos para" on Rock & Pop. Casella defended Fernández, prompting a backlash from Latorre, who used the opportunity to reference their past disagreements. The situation escalated, drawing in Edith Hermida, who surprised many by distancing herself from Casella and aligning with Latorre.
The conflict has highlighted tensions within the entertainment industry in Argentina, particularly around the topics of discrimination and homophobia. Although Casella has transitioned to work with another production company, Mandarina Contenidos, where Latorre also works, this has not mitigated the ongoing feud. Latorre has publicly critiqued Casella regarding the timing and manner of his apology to Valentín Fresno, a dancer associated with Teatro Colón, for the offensive comments made by his team.
The ongoing dispute reflects broader societal issues surrounding discrimination in media and the responsibilities of public figures to address such matters. Hermida's decision to side with Latorre may impact her own career trajectory and the dynamics among these media figures, prompting discussions on the importance of accountability and support among colleagues in the industry.
