André Horvilleur grew up surrounded by art, though he always kept a low profile and away from the media spotlight that accompanied his parents’ careers. The son of Celeste Cid and Emmanuel Horvilleur, the 21-year-old has just taken a behind-the-scenes step that filled his family with pride: he directed the music video for “El Salvador”, the song his father performs with León Gieco.
The news was shared by Celeste, who did not hide her admiration for her son’s work. The actress posted images related to the video and dedicated a few words that drew attention not only to his talent but also to a sensitivity she recognizes in him in a special way.
“Thank you, little God, for the children, for beauty, sensitivity, and poetry… which are four ways of saying the same thing”, wrote Cid.
But she was even more direct when speaking about André and his artistic gaze. “What beauty. I admire you to infinity, André Horvilleur, your magical and sensitive eye”, she expressed.
The young man did not delay in replying publicly. “Hug you, mother”, he wrote alongside a red heart, in an exchange that revealed their complicity.

André’s new project also carries a strong family element. “El Salvador” was composed by Emmanuel Horvilleur together with León Gieco and Lucas Martí, Emmanuel’s maternal half-brother.
The song thus brought together different generations and branches of a family long linked to music and the arts, while André assumed a creative role behind the camera.
The full music video can be seen on YouTube and it represents one of the most visible steps for the young man within an artistic universe he has known since childhood, although up to now he had moved through it with a great deal of discretion.
Evangelina Bourbon, Emmanuel Horvilleur’s partner and Marion’s mother, also celebrated the project. “Dream team for this hit, my love”, she wrote upon sharing the work.
Who is André Horvilleur, Celeste Cid and Emmanuel Horvilleur’s son
Born in September 2004, André is the only child of Celeste Cid and Emmanuel Horvilleur. His parents have been highly recognized figures in the Argentine scene since he was small, but his upbringing was marked by a different choice: staying away from the permanent spotlight.
Unlike other celebrity offspring, André chose for years a low profile. That reserve also sparked curiosity about his life, his interests, and the path he would choose for his future.
As time went by, clues about his interests began to surface. The artistic world is part of his life and, in addition to his musical leanings, he participated in clothing campaigns, also showing a connection to the fashion and aesthetics world.
The direction of the “El Salvador” music video now appears as a new step in that journey, although it still doesn’t imply that André has publicly defined his own artistic career.
An independent perspective, rooted in art
The link to music feels natural given his family history. His father is one of the benchmarks of the Argentine music scene and his mother has built an extensive career as an actress.
However, working behind the camera allows André to explore art from his own place. In this case, it is not about taking center stage, but about building a visual perspective to accompany a song.
And that is precisely what Celeste seems to have recognized in her son when she spoke of his “magical and sensitive eye”.
Beyond the fame of his parents, André has been crafting his path with far less public exposure. He also keeps much of his personal and academic life private. According to information shared about him, he is currently studying at university, though publicly disclosed details about the major he chose have not emerged.
Fashion also appeared among his interests: he participated in clothing campaigns and had ventures into the visual world, a field which he is now revisiting from the standpoint of audiovisual direction.
Celeste Cid’s Pride
For Celeste, the music video turned out to be an opportunity to share something that goes beyond artistic work: the pride of watching her son grow and discovering his own sensitivity.
“What beauty,” the actress wrote upon seeing the result. And she later chose two words that were especially meaningful to define it: “magical” and “sensitive”.
At 21, André begins to reveal a creative facet of his own. He does so, moreover, from a place that seems very aligned with the way he has navigated his public life so far: without flash, away from the noise, and letting his work speak for him.
