Alejandra Majluf Enters Gran Hermano as Replacement as Production Practices Come Under Scrutiny

Revelations by former host Jorge Rial about altering voting windows together with Andrea del Boca's admission of agreed returns have amplified questions about the show's neutrality.

Overview

  • The program announced Alejandra Majluf as Gladys 'La Bomba Tucumana's replacement during the live gala, and Majluf immediately reunited with Andrea del Boca inside the house.
  • Former host Jorge Rial said production used to lengthen or shorten the public voting window to influence outcomes while counting real votes, a claim that prompted fresh concern about the fairness of results.
  • Andrea del Boca acknowledged she negotiated her return with production and said staff suggested staging an in-house revelation live on the show, which critics say shows active producer shaping of narratives.
  • This edition has repeatedly changed lineups through re-entries, golden tickets and standby contracts, moves that producers say boost drama but that critics argue alter competition mechanics.
  • With a mixed-mode elimination set to decide a loaded nomination list, the controversy over vote timing and arranged returns could affect viewer trust, fan mobilization and how future rounds are run.
