Tuesday, December 31, 2024 by Isabella Rojas

Ángel García, famously known as Antolín El Pichón, is celebrating his birthday on December 30th. However, he's a bit concerned because, according to him, social media platforms have inaccurately added extra years to his age.

The beloved "Guajiro de Manacas" shared a video on Instagram expressing gratitude to his followers for their birthday wishes. "Thank you to everyone who has sent me birthday greetings. Don't pay attention to social media, they're making me older than I am, affecting my youthful image," he quipped in the video, maintaining his youthful spirit.

Despite his concerns, Antolín, who remains remarkably energetic and lively, is turning 71. His distinctive humor continues to be a hallmark of his personality.

Among the many birthday messages he received was one from his friend, actor Luis Alberto García. "Guajiro of my life, of our lives. May you continue to delight us with your cheerful and wholesome humor! May you have many more birthdays! Cuba loves you dearly. For your gift, Iván Camejo will bring the tea, and I'll bring the complete works of Fyodor Dostoevsky. Happy birthday, Ángel García de Manacas. Antolín El Pichón. Remember that De Niro, Pacino, and Day-Lewis ‘take their cues from you’," Luis Alberto warmly wished him.

Antolín responded with his characteristic wit, "Thank you, Luisito, for your comment, so people know the level of my acting image," reminding everyone of his esteemed status in the entertainment industry.
