Overview
- Jorge “Roña” Castro alleged the competition is fixed, claiming host Wanda Nara decides who stays, and said he endured filming days of eight to eleven hours.
- Castro also stated that promised visits by Nara and the judges to cook at his charitable kitchens have not happened.
- Esteban Mirol said he felt mistreated, described uneven judging standards and “protected” contestants, and cited seeing others mistreated.
- Momi Giardina confirmed she had an anxiety or panic episode and saw a psychiatrist after entering the show, stressing it was a personal issue rather than something caused by staff.
- Juror Germán Martitegui rejected the accusations, objected to the use of the word “mistreatment,” and defended the production, with no independent inquiry or formal corrective action reported.
