Since Juan Yacuzzi told in dialogue with Juan Etchegoyen that during the two years he made the children’s strip “Cebollitas”, the cast of children suffered daily abuse and pressure, a whole controversy was uncovered in this regard that had its defenders and its detractors.
Many guys who were part of the cast back in 1997 came out to support Yacuzzi’s sayings; However, Carmen Barbieri was very blunt and tried to lie to the boys who told how they lived at that time their passage through the program.
Again summoned by the Mitre Live journalist, the actor spoke out about how Barbieri was treated during the interview and said very angrily: “How wrong Carmen Barbieri was. No one in this world is going to tell me ‘you didn’t live it, you didn’t feel it’, Yacuzzi said.
“We were talking about abuse and he mistreated me live. I felt none. Around there I didn’t even know what to tell myself. What he did was a faithful reflection of Chives”
And he added: “I see it wrong to lock you up, to take a position that does not correspond to you, she got into the issue while no one named her. No one said to him ‘you, you did this thing’. He summoned me to do an interview in which he did not let me speak,” he said. He added, bluntly: “We were talking about abuse and he mistreated me live. I felt none. Around there I didn’t even know what to tell myself. What he did was a faithful reflection of Chives.” In that line he expressed: “Who are you to call me a liar? To tell me if I act or not? The truth is that I felt recontra atacado….Me mistreated live and people supported me as well as my teammates,” he said. There are many who grab them with me. They have written to me about the production that they took it in a personal way. Or people who are related to the producers,” he revealed about the repercussions of the complaints. “If you read the news or watch the videos, I’m not alone but 80% of the guys. Fede Bal told him to apologize to people and not to me, he is unwise because he did not advise him correctly.”
“He would have to read a little bit more and see what people told him. And but stay with that but you have to listen a little more when everyone tells you that you were wrong, “he concluded.
