Victor Trujillo
Víctor Alberto Trujillo Matamoros (Mexico City, July 30, 1961) known as Víctor Trujillo or by the name of one of his characters, "Brozo", is a Mexican broadcaster, television presenter, comedian, actor and voice actor.
Biography
He began his career in the media, specifically on the radio, at the age of 14, with his participation in XEB-AM in 1975 as a radio soap opera announcer and actor. He worked for a while at the Bar Mink, doing impersonations, while he was in high school.
He carried out various professional activities such as dubbing, theater and comedy. Finally, in 1987 she began to collaborate for the Imevisión television network, in the program En Tienda y Trastienda , which she hosted with the comedian Ausencio Cruz.
In 1988, he gave life for the first time to Brozo "The scary clown", his most successful character, in the program "La Caravana", which he hosted with the comedian Ausencio Cruz. Within that same program the character "Johnny Latino" emerged, an animator of a fictitious game show called "La Pirinola", from which the famous phrase " Pity, Mar-ga-ri-to!".
He also participated with his characters in the sports program Los Protagonistas, in Humorcito Corazón and in the radio program El mañanero, with Grupo ACIR. Another of his programs was El Diario de la Noche , broadcast by TV Azteca. A new change led him to host the program Las Nueve y Sereno , on channel 40. Right there, he began the transmission of his most emblematic program: El mañanero .
When he changed companies again, now to Televisa, he continued with the transmission of El mañanero with the same program design and colleagues with whom he had worked at CNI. On March 3, 2004, he presented a hidden camera video of the PRD politician René Bejarano, where he was observed in an act of corruption receiving wads of bills from the hands of Carlos Ahumada Kurtz, an Argentine businessman naturalized as a Mexican, for which the deputy of the ALDF was harshly questioned by Brozo; this particular fact was a watershed in terms of this type of videos, which were called "video scandals". On June 2, 2004, Trujillo decided to end said program, on the occasion of the death of his wife, Carolina Padilla, one month after her death that same day and as a tribute to who had also been the creator of his characters and producer of the newscast.
In 2005, he participated in the editorial program El cristal con que se mira, where, among other cases, he followed up on the alleged illicit enrichment of the former governor of the state of Mexico, Arturo Montiel Rojas.
In 2006, he hosted a short-lived program on Televisa, called El Circo de Brozo, which began with a high audience rating, due to the interviews he conducted during the first half of the show. It shows the candidates of that time prior to the presidential elections of that year and also the players and the coaching staff of the National Soccer Team on the eve of the 2006 Soccer World Cup in Germany. However, after both events ended, the quality of the show declined, as the skits that accompanied the second half of the show were not the best and, as the format ran out, it was unable to maintain its ratings. [citation required]
In 2007 he returned to television with the program El NotiFiero where, between comedy and satire, the most relevant news from Mexico was presented. It was broadcast on Friday nights on Televisa's Canal de las Estrellas.
In 2008, he hosted Primero Beijing together with Carlos Loret de Mola, as part of the special programs bar for the coverage of the Olympic Games on Televisa. This same program would also be repeated at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, at the 2012 London Olympics and at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
In February 2010, it resumed the concept of the morning show El mañanero, although with a totally different format, compared to its previous broadcast, and including a debate block, Debatitlán, on the Foro TV channel.
During 2011 and 2012, he successfully starred in the play Rojo, based on the life of the painter Mark Rothko, at the Hellenic Theater and at the Rafael Solana Theater.
In 2018 he relaunched his radio program El mañanero, this through Aire Libre 105.3, owned by businessman Eduardo Henkel.
Criticism and controversies
In April 2007, the program "El NotiFiero" was the subject of an investigation process for the use of high-sounding words by the Ministry of the Interior, after the conversation between the merchant Kamel Nacif and the governor of the state of Puebla, Mario Marín, was reproduced, in which both plotted a probable repression against the journalist Lydia Cacho.
One of the strongest objections to Víctor Trujillo has been the scathing criticism he has made of Televisa in the years he worked at Imevisión, later called TV Azteca.
On October 5, 2010, there was an attack on his program partner Marissa Rivera, a journalist and program partner through the social network Facebook. On the air, Brozo said: I tell this person: we are already on you, and all the instruments that are in the company (Televisa) and in the Mexican justice system, we are already very close to you. Step aside, jump over, get to him however you want. We are so close. If you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us... All this in allusion to the fact that a Facebook user had usurped the journalist's name and was making comments that were alien to the opinion and point of view of this collaborator.
In 2019, Víctor Trujillo, characterized as Brozo, became a trend when he criticized Andrés Manuel López Obrador, when he was already serving as president of Mexico: in his program El Mañanero, on Aire Libre, in May 2019, began to analyze the president's morning conferences, arguing that they are a production like any other: directed, calculated and with defined characters: the reporters who are given the floor, questioning their qualification as independent journalists and the little impartiality that, in their eyes, they show in their questions and comments. This caused a division in the public: part of it supported the president and another, the driver. On May 13, 2019, Víctor thanked the public for being a trend on social networks as a result of this controversy and explained that another derivative of the same situation, calling people "perrada", has always been his way. referring to his followers.[citation required]
