L-Gante Confronts TV Panelist On Air Over Ex-Manager’s Messages

Méndez says producers cleared him to read Maxi “El Brother’s” texts, intensifying scrutiny of an active dispute that remains unresolved.

Overview

  • During La Mañana con Moria on El Trece, L-Gante halted the show to confront panelist Gustavo Méndez, calling him a “boludo” and saying “para mí sos un logi.”
  • The clash began after Méndez read messages he said were from former manager Maxi “El Brother” Barbaccia that defended his position, explained contract terms, and criticized the singer.
  • L-Gante said his issue was Méndez’s conduct and timing, accusing him of taking advantage of the interview to expose him despite cordial exchanges off-camera.
  • Méndez told Clarín he verified the sender, consulted producers, got approval, and only read the texts as a right of reply; he apologized off-air, which L-Gante did not accept, and later described the artist’s behavior as almost violent with brief contact.
  • The on-air dispute disrupted the program’s flow and cut the cooking segment, as the broader legal case between L-Gante and his ex-representative over alleged fraud and harmful contracts remains open.
