Stefano Salvini Says Viral ‘Homeless’ Videos Were Staged to Promote Web Series

The couple presents the street footage as scripted material for Mi Vagabundo, a social‑media series they created.

Overview

  • Videos from Lima showed Salvini disheveled, asking for money and stating he had taken bad decisions, which prompted widespread concern on social media.
  • Hours before the street clips, Salvini and Matilde León announced a breakup that they now say belonged to the project’s storyline.
  • León appeared at the location, took Salvini to her home, filmed cleaning and outfitting him, and later posted the sequences online.
  • In a joint video, they identified the content as promotion for Mi Vagabundo, a web series on TikTok and Instagram.
  • They described the premise as a high‑class woman adopting a homeless man to transform him into her premium partner, citing public comments about Salvini’s image as inspiration.
