Actor Bruno Gagliasso apologizes after backlash over early McDonald’s closure

Brazilian actor Bruno Gagliasso posted on Instagram complaining that a McDonald’s drive‑thru in Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro, closed ten minutes before the advertised closing time of 23:00, saying it shut at 22:50.

The post sparked criticism on social media, with users calling the comment classist and pointing out his previous advocacy for ending the 6‑day‑on‑1‑day‑off work schedule for fast‑food staff. Gagliasso later removed the story, issued an apology stating he was “impulsive and immature,” and acknowledged the need to learn from the mistake.
