ANTONIO CASTELO: AGE AND BIOGRAPHY OF THE JURY OF THE ‘SÁLVAME MEDIAFEST’
Born in Alicante in 1982, his professional future was destined for something very different from the world of humor and television, since he studied computer engineering at the Polytechnic University of Valencia and Physical Sciences. Before that, he went as far as to enlist in the army to become a pilot, but ended up dropping out.
In the classrooms he discovered his desire to make people laugh, so once he finished his studies he began to collaborate on radio programs as a comedian. His first opportunity came thanks to Andreu Buenafuente, with whom he became the character of the fellow.
That was his springboard to jump as a reporter for ‘Caiga who falls’, which made him become an emerging figure of humor. Later he would jump to Comedy Central and his return to the radio, this time with the Antonio Castelo dominates the world program, on the SER network.
At the same time, he was a scriptwriter and collaborator of Yu, don’t miss anything, a program in which he experienced several controversies, including an accusation of alleged harassment of several women through social networks. Esty Quesada, better known as Soy una pringad a, did not hesitate to charge at him.
Despite the controversy, nothing of what he was accused of could ever be proven, but it did have negative consequences for his work, since he was removed from several programs in which he collaborated.
Although he was returning to his work very discreetly after a few months, when everything was calmer. His great return to the media was with his signing for ‘Everything is a lie’, the Risto Mejide program on Cuatro.
Since then, his career has skyrocketed again, becoming the presenter of ‘Los teloneros’, a program that lasted just a few months, and as a jury of ‘Sálvame Mediafest 2022 ‘.
Antonio Castelo, for now, remains very discreet when it comes to his private life. For now he is not known as a partner and hardly shares moments of his intimate life
