Laura Bozzo gets let go

April 27th, 2006

17e4364laura2g.jpgLadies and gentlemen, after 5 years of polladas, berrinches, lloros and face-slapping drama, Laura Bozzo, the once-incarcerated host of “Laura en América” has been fired, according to El Mundo and EFE:

Peruvian television host Laura Bozzo has been fired by the Telemundo network after a five year working relationship due to “hard to meet expectations”, according to Peruvian press. Bozzo had declared that her contract ended by mutual agreement, but the press claims that Telemundo ended her aggressive talk show due to a decline in viewers and her approaching trial before Peruvian court on charges of corruption. Her talk show, which reached great popularity in Latin America in last few years distinguished itself by showing dramas in the lives of low-income people who, in many cases, accepted money to tell their stories and allowed themselves to be humiliated for money.

Now who will give all of those poor souls their carritos sangüicheros?

I guess la Bozzo had a reason to fear her Mexican counterpart, since, as far as I know, la Señora Leon still has a job. RIP, “Laura en América”, it was fun while it lasted.

    this is bullshit excuse my words
    Laura was the best show Telemundo could ever have they are so gay for firing her she was obviously the best talk showe host ever and Laura Leon cannot top her as many people say
    What is Telemundo going to do without Laura Bozzo? Nobody knows but knowing Laura Bozzo i guess she is going to keep going with her career and probably have a show in another TV station and shwe will keep helping people

THE LAURA LENO SHOW SUCKS i mean this lady all she does is sing the same dam song and shake her ass like nothing at lease get some chairs..so the damm show could look right ur not gonna get any ratings at all ur show sucks..in Laura show there is action there is help for everyone..and LAURA is A STRIGHT up person ..i really admir her on her being a good romodle..especial she keeps her people safe ..AND LIKE SHE SAYS SOMOS TODOS LATINOS SO SE DEJEN JODER DE NINGUN HOMBRE LAS MUJERS PUEDEN SALIR ADELANTE SIN UN HOMBRE ARIBA LAS MUJER ES TIMPO QUE TE DIFENDA Y ALSE TU VOZZZZZZZ I HOPE LAURA COULD GO TO ANOTHER CADENA ..TELEMUNDO SUCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

    Laura was right if she exposed a politician with an illegimate child. That is why they are trying to prosecute her. She is one tough cookie. As for telemundo they have lost a great talk show host. La Senora Leon is nothing compared to Ms. Laura Bozzo

    I think Laura is a great woman and that she has helped many people on her show. The people that have bad things to say about her is out of envy or because they are one of the many that she has exposed in one way or another.Telemundo will do what they think is right for them but as we all know it is televisa that will be recieving a great woman a fighter for the rights of those that can not fight for them selfs..Laura keep up the great work….siempre just one fan…

    TELEMUNDO, NOW YOU REALLY MESSED UP, YOU CAN KEEP THAT SENORA LEON WITH THAT AWFUL VOICE, AND LONG FACE, SHE WILL NEVER SUPPLEMENT LAURA, MY FRIENDS, FAMILY, MYSELF, WILL NOT BE WATCHING TELEMUNDO ANYMORE, IF YOU CAN GET RID OF A PERSON, WHO JUST HELPED AND WISED UP WOMAN, AND BY THE SAME TOKEN DEFENDED MEN, YOU HAVE NO HEART, LEON CAN’T EVEN DO A SOAP OPERA, I GUESS WE WILL GO BACK TO EL GORDO Y LA FLACA, AND SEE ALL THEIR PATOS CUBANOS THAT THEY BRING, BUT IT IS ALL WORTH IT, IF LAURA IS NOT IN TELEMUNDO,, DON’T WORRY SOMETHING TELLS ME, SHE WILL SURFACE AGAIN IN ANOTHER SHOW, AND KICK YOU IN THE BEHIND LIKE SHE HAD DONE TO THE CRISTINA SHOW,,, WHICH SHE TOOK OFF THE AIR, REMEMBER, WHEREVER LAURA GOES IF WE CAN CAPTURE HERE IN TV IN AMERICA, THAT IS WHERE WE WILL BE, REMEMBER SHE MAY BE GONE FROM YOUR STATION,,,,BUT NO FORGOTTEN, SHE HAS TO MANY SUPPORTERS!!

    Un mensaje para Telemundo:

    La despedida de Laura Bozzo me ha sorprendido en gran manera. Aunque el programa no lleva un formato educativo, expone un gran problema economico-social existente en el pais peruano: violencia domestica, abuso en contra de los ninos y el escaso cumplimiento de la ley, lo que parece ser una epidemia en ese pais.

    En mi opinion, de la manera que Laura maneja la criminalidad (enviando gente a las autoridades policiacas para ser procesados), es una manera, que aunque lenta, hara que el govierno judicial vuelva a tomar consciencia acerca de la negligencia judicial que por anos ha existido. En adicion, este progrma puede ser algo asi como un guia para los otros pueblos latinos. No piensan Telemundo la gran ayuda a las sociedades del mundo hispano que puede dar a traves del programa de la Sra. Bozzo? Siempre pense que algun progrma con este formato hacia falta, ya que los governadores conocen la problematica, pero no hacen nada sino enriquecerse mientras el pueblo sufre y vive en miseria por decadas.

    If Laura gos to another station, I hope it’s Bi-lingual. I only understand what she saying when I go to my best friends house. But I watch even when I don’t have a clue what’s been said. I bet she would get a stronger rating if Americans understood what’s going on.

  • Josie says on: January 10, 2007 at 12:09 am

     

    I love the Laura show. She has so much Love for everyone… She say she was coming to the states and help some people out here, has she visit the states and when will that air on telemundo. If the rumors are true about Laura not being on anymore more. Can we hear it from the big guy……..?????????????!!!!!!!!

  • maria says on: January 11, 2007 at 4:18 pm

     

    This is not right what they did to Laura she is the best thing they put on TV. Telemundo lost a great person but I’m not worried about it I hope she goes to UNIVISON its much better than TELEMUNDO SUCKSSSSSSS.

    I believe Laura is a very specail woman,, they dont look at for all the lives she has saved and touched in so many ways. she has done her job great and i think she deserves her Job back and a Apology.

  • Stuart says on: June 14, 2007 at 10:44 pm

     

    This woman shoud not even be on t.v. I seen most of the men being attact by woman and secrity and laura dosent do anything to stop the abuse. Then there drag the man off the stage when it should be the woman.

  • Stephanie says on: June 15, 2007 at 12:00 am

     

    I am so upset that they let someone go who has fought all her life to empower women and children. We need women roll models like Dra. Laura because latina women don’t have a roll model of a women who have progessed ahead and they can do it with out a man. and that they can have everything. and be with someone who loves and respects and wants to progress. Latin women are being left behind because of antiquated thinking.

  • Cheryl says on: June 19, 2007 at 9:59 pm

     

    I love Laura! She has the guts to defend people who cannot defend themselves. I wish her all the success in the world. I know this sounds stupid but I wish there were a Laura action figure or doll that I could proudly display on my desk at work. It would spread the word about Laura and how great she is and it would also remind me that I’m not alone when I have to stand up to injustices we see every day.

    If anyone knows where I could get Laura publicity items like what I mentioned above, I’d be grateful if you’d let me know!

    No se lo que esta pasando en estos momentos con Laura Bozzo, Ojala que la teleaundencia se de cuenta que esta “abogada” es lo peor que le a podido pasar al Peru con relacion a los programas llamados “talK shows”. ella lamentablemente es una persona bulgar que se aprovecha de la jente pobre y ignorante, los trata como payasos en su programa. Estas pobres personas hacen lo que le digan por un poco de dinero. Asi no se ayuda al Peru, rediculizandolos ante todo el mundo como lo hace Laura Bozzo. En el Peru hay jente pobre, pero no todos son como ella los presenta. La jente pobre no necesita ser payaso de nadie. Pero lo mas me da pena es saber que hay personas como los que han mandado sus opiniones a favor de laura Bozzo que no se dan cuenta de lo mal que esta persona esta haciendo al Peru. Ojala que todas las cadenas de television no le permitan pasar su programa. Claro esto nunca sucedera,porque con el cuento de la liberta de exprecion existen persona como Laura Bozzo que sacan provecho de los demas.Lo que hace esta persona va contra los derechos humanos, contra la dignidad de la jente humilde.

  • SANDRA says on: October 17, 2007 at 8:26 pm

     

    Mom and I would like to make a donation to Selene Barreto, a Puruvian girl that was injured (lost leg, etc)–came out in Primer Impacto in UNIVISION, but we would like to know exactly where to mail a check where the actual family would get it. I’d like to hear from Laura Bozzo, I would trust her for this info–since she is from Peru. Our phone number is 559-444-0960: Sandra & Margila R.

  • Orlando P. says on: May 14, 2008 at 9:01 pm

     

    Get “Laura en America” back on Telemundo. Bozzo’s show was good for Telemundo and it’s viewers. I don’t know who this Mrs. Leon is, there is only one Laura for this kind of show.

  • raykel says on: June 6, 2008 at 12:35 am

     

    yo creo que laura es un de las mejores conductores que hay en telemundo, lo digo por su forma de tratar de ayudar a las personas, y no solo a las personas sino a los niños con por la forma en que hace que l.os hijos se reconcilien con sus padres. el amor que siente hacia ellos es lo mas bonito que veo en laura para mi laura es la mejor.

  • Paty says on: October 30, 2008 at 11:30 am

     

    Extraño muchisimo a Laura en la television, Laura te deseo todo lo mejor aunque tu show era en tu pais pero llegaste a muchos hogares de todo el mundo y con esa valentia que tu tienes nos ayudaste a muchas, muchas bendiciones para ti y tu familia.
