Micheille Soifer Says Paint Thrown in Her Face at Callao Carnival Crossed a Line

Her response emphasized the difference between festive play and personal respect.

Overview

  • During a street visit in Mi Perú, Callao, a woman approached Soifer and smeared paint on her face, an incident recorded on video.
  • Soifer said the gesture exceeded acceptable carnival behavior, describing those responsible as ill‑mannered and acting in bad faith.
  • She was in the district as a special guest and served as madrina of a mass wedding held as part of the celebrations.
  • Despite the episode, she said she enjoyed the visit, highlighted the public’s warmth, and thanked local organizers for the invitation.
  • She later shared a lighthearted Instagram post saying she likes carnivals but some people went overboard, as earlier clips showed her soaked with water and foam and the paint footage spread widely online.
