There are just over 24 hours left to find out who becomes the winner of Operación Triunfo 2023. Juanjo, Lucas, Martin, Naiara, Paul and Ruslana are the finalists for the grand final this Monday, February 19, and the expectation is maximum . A few hours before this final, the contestants received a visit from someone very important in the world of culture in our country, and it was none other than Antonio Banderas.
There are many visits that the contestants have received during the course of this edition. Several of them have been from people from other fields, not just from the world of music. An example of this was the MotoGP rider Álex Márquez, or the influencer Lola Lolita. This Saturday, the young talents were able to enjoy the company of one of the most outstanding actors in our country: Antonio Banderas.
This was announced by the Hollywood performer himself through the contest's social networks. "I just arrived in Barcelona, here in OT, and in a few minutes I'm going up to talk to the boys," he began by saying. "I really want to, although I have no idea what I'm going to tell you," said the protagonist of productions such as The Mask of Zorro or Night Watchman, among many others, laughing.
"Pinch us if it's true. This visit is not FAKE, it's REAL, and so real that we have Antonio Banderas ready to go up to the ACADEMY at 3 p.m. Who is going to miss everyone's reaction?" wrote the contest in their official TikTok account, being aware that it was one of the most important visits of the edition. The publication has accumulated more than 15,000 likes and fans of the contest were quick to explain their impressions of the talk the actor gave them.
During the talk, Antonio gave them advice related to fame and the learning that the profession entails. "I have never considered myself a teacher, I am a student. If you are a good artist, you should always be a student, because someone will come and teach you something, and maybe that someone who teaches you something is much younger than you," he expressed in a given moment of the visit, some statements that have gone viral on social networks.
On the other hand, the actor and director was open when it came to working with the 'triumphants' after his departure from the academy. "If I call you for a musical, are you going to come?" He asked, while he said goodbye to the academy students between hugs. "Of course!" they exclaimed then. The truth is that the visit has generated a large number of reactions on social networks.
"'I have no idea what I'm going to tell you', because it was literally the best talk of the entire edition," wrote one Internet user. "Great actor and person, I love listening to him speak," said another user. "The best talk and the best visit by far," read another comment. "Antonio, you don't need to introduce yourself," another TikToker joked.
