A Wikipedia user identifying himself under his name Anthony Devolder — a well-known alias for the stricken GOP Rep. George Santos — made a variety of bizarre claims about his acting career that he appeared on two hit Disney Channel shows and in the film “The Oscars” with Oscar-nominated actor Uma Thurman.
The Wikipedia page that contains the bio of the user The page, first reported on the previous Friday on Politico It was later removed but is still accessible on the internet archives. Its bio page, which is believed to have been updated on the 29th of April, 2011 and is full of errors and typos. The bio also contains information that is in line with Santos and says that the person was born on the 22nd of July 1988, to an ethnically diverse Brazilian family with an European background.
The most recent obsession from the media claiming that I am a drag Queen or “performed” as a drag Queen is categorically false.
The media continues to make outrageous claims about my life while I am working to deliver results.
I will not be distracted nor fazed by this.

It is further stated that “Anthony Devolder began his “stage” life at the age of 17 when he became a gay nightclub DRAG QUEEN and then he was awarded a number of GAY “BEAUTY PAGENTS”!”
Santos who is out gay, has this week has denied performing on stage in drag after numerous people have told media outlets, like Insider that they had known the drag artist in Brazil.
The Wiki bio of Devolder said that he “took his first steps into the beginning of his career which he began by appearing on a couple of T.V programs as well as DISNEY Channel shows,” which included “The The Suite Life of Cody and Zack” along with “Hannah Montana.” The bio also stated that “he recorded his first movie in 2009” that was titled “THE INVASION” and featured “Uma Turman,”” which is a mispelling of Uma Thurman.
It’s not known what movie the bio referenced was. The movie “The Invasion” was released in 2007 but it featured Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig but in contrast to The “Pulp Fiction” actress. The name of the actor was not listed “Anthony Devolder” – nor George Santos — was mentioned in the film’s cast at IMDb.
A representative from Santos did not respond immediately to Insider’s request for comments.
Santos has been known as Anthony Devolder in the past. In a video that was recently discovered, Santos introduced himself as Anthony Devolder at an event in New York City in 2019 which featured conservative commentators from the LGBTQ community. He also has at various times stated the full title of his name, George Anthony Devolder Santos. He also used as George Devolder in social media posts in 2020, The Star Bulletin Reported.
Politico said that If the Wiki bio wasn’t written by Santos this means that it had been written by an individual else who was more than 10 years ago, was using Santos the alias of Santos as well as biographical information.
It is also the most recent news regarding his New York congressman’s fabrications and embellishment. Santos is accused of deceiving his career and educational background, how his mother passed away as well as his roots.
