Monique Pardo fondly remembered the comedic actor Manolo Rojas, who passed away at the age of 63. In an emotional interview, the former vedette emphasized that Peru should remember him “with a smile” because “he brought joy to our lives.” Her message came after the tragic news of his death, which occurred last Friday in La Victoria.
“No one will forget him. All I ask of Peru is to remember him with a smile. He will smile in heaven when he sees that we remember him this way,” Pardo stated on the program Directo en directo on RPP. The artist reflected on her friendship with Rojas, recalling the last recognition he received and how his humor was always harmless. “He was a man with a good heart and helped many people,” she added.
Monique also reminisced about her beginnings at the Olimpo theater, where she met a young Manolo who quickly became an icon of Peruvian entertainment. His legacy will endure among those who enjoyed his talent, especially on the show Los Chistosos, where he established himself as an emblematic figure. The passing of Manolo Rojas leaves a void in the artistic community and in the hearts of those who admired him. For more details about his life and career, you can read this article.
