On March 10, 2025, Aleska Génesis, the Venezuelan model and social media influencer, made headlines after her elimination from "La Casa de los Famosos All Stars" was overshadowed by her unexpected arrest. Just moments after exiting the reality show, Aleska was apprehended by agents from the Fiscalía General de Justicia del Estado de México. Reports confirm she had been awaiting the consequences of a judicial order due to her alleged involvement in a robbery.
According to journalist Carlos Jiménez, Aleska Génesis was taken shortly after leaving the Endemol Shine production site located on the Mexico-Huixquilucan highway. The authorities acted on existing charges related to her supposed crime—linking her to the theft of luxury watches valued at approximately 10 million pesos, which were reportedly intended for sale on the black market, particularly targeting buyers in Miami, Florida.
Aleska'rise to fame began as she participated and gained popularity on various beauty pageants, including winning the "Tacarigua de Oro Internacional" award in 2019. Born on August 4, 1991, she rose through the ranks of the entertainment world and amassed over eight million Instagram followers.
This arrest marks Aleska's second brush with the law, the first occurring back on January 20, 2024, when she was detained at the Aeropuerto Internacional de la Ciudad de México under similar accusations of theft—an incident tied to the same luxury watches she is currently accused of stealing. The lengthy and controversial case has raised eyebrows, particularly due to the involvement of identified businessman Francisco Javier Rodríguez Borgio, known as "El Zar de los Casinos." Aleska's family, including her sisters, assert this is not simply about alleged crimes but also accuse Rodríguez Borgio of orchestrated harassment against Aleska.
Michell Roxana Castellanos, Aleska's sister, took to social media to condemn the arrest, stating, "Culpo directamente a Francisco Javier Rodríguez Borgio, autor de todos los casos falsos, quien me ha estado enviando mensajes de amenazas justo en el momento en que la policía llegó a detener ilegalmente a Aleska Genesis Castellanos en la Ciudad de México". She elaborated on how Aleska's detention was executed without legal justification, calling it illegal and indicative of abuse of power.
Bárbara Castellanos, another sister, echoed similar sentiments, asserting, "No existe ningún delito, no hay ninguna prueba legal en nuestra contra, solo mentiras fabricadas por Francisco Javier Rodríguez Borgio." This public outcry demonstrates the family’s belief not only of Aleska's innocence but also points fingers at what they perceive as manipulative forces at play: the authorities and the producers of the reality show.
Despite the noise surrounding her arrest, the reality show production team remained relatively silent. Viewers noticed something was amiss during the live broadcast when host Jimena Gállego announced Aleska’s elimination but did not conduct the customary post-elimination interview with her—a peculiar move considering the format, which heightened suspicions among viewers, particularly as Aleska was being taken away by police during the same time frame. This omission sparked conversations on social media about potential underlying conspiracies related to her removal from the show.
With her legal troubles compounding, Aleska's future now hangs precariously between the world of glamour and the stark reality of the legal system. The alleged robbery case, combined with the inner workings of reality television, has surfaced discontent and even pointed fingers at those close to the actress. The family's accusations against Rodríguez Borgio are not merely personal grievances but rather allegations of corruption and exploitation of the judicial process for revenge. Her sister Michell's charges directly linking him to her sister's predicament bear serious weight, with Michell declaring, "La policía de la Fiscalía de la Ciudad de México actuó de manera ilegal, permitiendo este abuso de poder."
Following the arrest, there remains quite the spectacle, as Aleska's story stirs controversy and sympathy across platforms, many of which demand clarity and justice. The fallout from this incident not only encapsulates the dynamic nature of fame but also serves as commentary on the intersection of entertainment and legal accountability. With no official statement from the authorities about the developments in Aleska's case, fans and followers watch with bated breath, awaiting what ramifications may arise from this tumultuous ordeal.
For now, Aleska Génesis's narrative is one of uncertainty—caught between the allure of fame and the harsh judgments of the law, leaving many to ponder the question: how far will the lengths of celebrity culture stretch to ensnare one's freedom?
