Enrico Montesano (born 7 June 1945) is an Italian actor and showman.
Montesano comes from a family involved in theatre, and he made his debut in 1966 in a show named Humor nero, alongside of Vittorio Metz. Later he became a very popular actor both on theatre and on television, thanks to his burlesque and brilliant style, and so during seventies he took part in several Italian comedies. He is probably best known for the role of Armando "Er Pomata" Pellicci in the cult movie Febbre da cavallo (1976), directed by Steno, but also for the role of Caleb, the good thief from Il ladrone (1980), directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile. Montesano won a David di Donatello as best new director for the movie A me mi piace (1985), in which he is both actor and director. His career continue from 1967 to 2010.
Since 2020 he has started a political battle against 5G, then attacking the "imposition" of vaccines and the restrictions due to measures to combat the COVID-19 pandemic through numerous videos on social networks
He has published numerous videos in which he takes critical positions towards the management of the COVID-19 pandemic and supports numerous conspiracy theories related to the pandemic and vaccines. In June 2021 he became the spokesperson for a false theory according to which the blood donated by vaccinated people is eliminated. The actor later apologized, saying he had been misinterpreted.
In late 2022 he was disqualified from RAI's Dancing with the Stars show after pictures posted from a audition showed him wearing a shirt with a symbol and motto of the Decima MAS unit that was active in the Nazi-Fascist Salò Republic puppet state under Nazi German occupation and committed some of the most serious crimes in wartime Italy by systematically carrying out public executions, massacres of civilian towns, torture, rapes and also assisting the Nazi genocide by assisting the SS in round-ups and "punishment operations" against civilians.
