Lydia Lozano opens up about the worst thing about 'Sálvame': "I got into bed and kept crying"

It was last June when Sálvame fell from the Telecinco grid after more than fourteen years on the air. The legendary program said goodbye to all its viewers by decision of the leadership of the communication group, in response to the drop in audience that all its channels, especially Telecinco, have experienced in recent months. Lydia Lozano was one of her regular collaborators, and recently she recalled in Pilar Vidal's Drama Queen podcast the best and worst moments of her long time on the program.

The Canary Islander shed a lot of tears in her fourteen years in the La Fábrica de la Tele format. Lydia was one of the faces that usually showed viewers moments of discomfort. However, before all this, Lozano began by talking about the great experience that was the recording of ¡Sálvese puede!, the Netflix reality show in which he worked with other collaborators, such as Belén Esteban, Kiko Matamoros, Terelu Campos, Kiko Hernández , María Patiño, Chelo García-Cortés and Víctor Sandoval, after the cancellation of Sálvame.

"I said: 'My God, how am I going to miss this opportunity?'" he says about the moment when he received the proposal to participate in the project. "It was very clear to me," he added. However, she did not abandon her grumpy role. "Even so, I continued to complain and say: 'I'm not getting on the plane, they should pay me first because I've been with them for fourteen years.' I asked for dismissal, but the dismissal meant not getting on board," he revealed, about his idea of collect the settlement. "The Netflix experience has been a gift. I have already had a Christmas gift. For me, Netflix is ​​the gift of many years," she said.

On the other hand, Lozano was honest about his years in Sálvame. "People believed that you played a role to have a leading role," Pilar Vidal told him. For her part, the journalist assures that all of her tears on set were real. "David Valldeperas, the director, told me what hurt me the most. And he repeated to me: 'Lydia, whenever the lights end, the show is over.' You have talked about my life, my family, and now "You tell me that when I get home I'll be partying? No... Then I would go home, get into bed and keep crying," he revealed.

And what happened on set also affected his life outside of it. "I have witnesses who have seen me take out the trash or walk the dog crying. I had a bad time," he remembers. However, Lydia Lozano makes it clear that she misses the format, since it was a very long stage in her life. In addition, she assures that she has "a monkey that I'm dying for" on television.

The truth is that this monkey will be solved soon. In the same way as her program partner, Terelu Campos, Lydia Lozano will also make the jump to Spanish Television. It will be next week when the Canarian journalist debuts on the public network with Jaime Cantizano and his program Mañaneros. In that program she will also be accompanied by María Teresa Campos' daughter, as Informalia assures. Without a doubt, all of Lydia's followers are eager to see her again on the small screen.
