Fabian Alberto Gomezbetter known as Fixed Gear visited very morning (Ciudad Magazine, Monday through Friday at 10) and gave an open-hearted interview: “When I came to Buenos Aires in 2002, I was so scared. Now October is the 20th anniversary of my program The thirteen“.

“With so much popularity came the craze to see you without makeup”Pampito, a panelist on the cycle led by Carmen Barbieri, told her when reviewing her successful career.

It is public knowledge that the Cordoban clown who is beloved by the children is extremely jealous of not showing his true image and avoid taking pictures in public with your natural face.

On this subject, he assured: “It was part of the game, I eventually learned it. At that time, especially in the beginning, it wasn’t very comfortable for me, honestly. “

Although he admits that over time he is giving up and it doesn’t seem to appeal to him: “Now I’m older and I’m giving a different dimension to things and time does its thing and underestimates it as well. Maybe one also had an attitude, between production that one has, almost hysterical in that sense ”.

For her part, she stressed that now she accepts it better: “Now I meet someone, who has no makeup, and when I speak they discover me. Or they tell me: ‘You have the same voice as Piñón’. I’m Piñon. and they do not believe me, ha. They stayed because the conversation was the other way around. “

Within his excuses for not agreeing to be photographed when he was a civilian and not with his character, he admitted that he often dismissed the situation and blamed his boss, Adrian Suar.

“So I blame Adrián (Suar). They ask me to take a picture of me when I’m normal and I tell them ‘no, Adrian you don’t know. It doesn’t allow me ‘. And there they answered me: ‘Ah, then no’“he said between laughs.

Then he related an anecdote that happened a few years ago when he traveled to Spain to do a show. “The character of the one there is not as well known as here. I was in Madrid a few years ago and it pushed me to do something on the street and I started miming. Just for the love of art, because nothing stops me on the street or anything. Imagine that the cover didn’t even pass. ”

“And suddenly a boy passed by, a kind Cordovan who told me as I passed: ‘you just look original huh’. And when I told him it was the original, he couldn’t believe itwe take pictures, everyone, “he concluded.

The crisis that left him in the media at his most famous moment

“I decided to stay away from the media in 2004. What we talked about seeing me without makeup or the photos they took of me was a small thing, but there were many other things. There are media strategies, bah what always happens when someone exposes himself a lot, right? ”Piñón pointed out.

And he announced about the drastic decision he made 18 years ago: “At one point we were together flare, Coco Fernandez Y Paul Codeville. They have been generous to me. In good and evil. ”

“When I arrived, all the doors were open for me. And by the time that happened you say, being around there was pretty heavy and difficult because of the issue of seeing my face and I didn’t know what, I told them ‘it’s all beyond me, I have boys, I wasn’t born for it, I have no answer for it’. And they understood me. I’ve always been grateful for that, “he continued.

Carmen asked him what his reaction was at that moment when he walked away from all the masses, at a time when the clown was so famous.

“At that moment I returned to my hometown, Córdoba. I made programs from there, I exported programs to Paraguay, Ecuador. The negatives that happen, I transmute them into some lesson or learning. A crisis can be the beginning of something else. I’m pretty stable, ”he said.

Finally, Piñón, who lives in the town of Mendiolaza, spoke of the legacy he left to his two sons Sol, 34, and Jeremias, 33, who followed in the footsteps of their father and clowns as well: “The best awards are when your kids will come and tell you that I want to work alone but I want to do it with the work I learned from you. And they do it better than I do. “

“Sol has a lot of followers in the networks. He handles dynamics better and does things for men. Solcito Fixed the call, will make its own show in Córdoba. Jere has another approach: he said ‘I don’t want to use fame or anything of yours and I want to make my own career’. He wanted to take the road from the beginning and the man is making happy birthdays all over Córdoba, ”he concludes.
