Gonzalo and his punishment
Gonzalo, one of the contestants, has expressed his indignation at the strong reprimand received from Pepe Rodríguez. They have given him the black apron as punishment, claiming that he has broken the rules. As? For not raising their hands when the end of preparation time was announced. Is it really possible to make the dish in just 75 minutes? It is a sacred time according to the established rules.
The young man has vented his frustration in front of the cameras: «I am very angry about the black apron. I think I am the one who receives the most criticism and pressure, by far. I don’t deny my guilt, but they are very hard on me and I am very disappointed.
Favoritism on Masterchef?
The crux of the matter lies in the fact that it has been evident that the professionals in the program show greater understanding towards Samya, one of Gonzalo’s colleagues. Even though her dish was much worse than Gonzalo’s and she also broke a rule by not using a specific appliance, she has not received a similar punishment. On social networks, criticism has been expressed towards the format of the program, arguing that there is favorable treatment towards her.
Samantha Vallejo-Nágera, the center of attention
One of the most talked about moments of the night featured Samantha Vallejo-Nágera. Despite her long history in the program, she had never before started cooking in the kitchen. This time, she did it during the expulsion ceremony, and the image of her was quite funny. The curious thing has always been highlighted that she did not get her hands dirty, unlike her fellow jury members. As expected, this gesture has given rise to multiple memes and ironic messages from the program’s followers.
Without a doubt, this edition of Masterchef is generating a lot of controversy and surprises.
