This week Argentinian actor Filpe Combo, the star of the mythological series “The Rebels” that captivated the girls of Israel in the early 2000’s (and even got a remake on Netflix) did a live show. Colombo recalled one of his visits to Israel, when he was a guest on Topaz’s show and shared an old still image from that hosting.

“Uncle Tepez committed suicide? What the hell? How?” responded the shocked star, in a particularly late response to that tragic story. There is no doubt that no one can remain indifferent to Topaz’s life and actions.
