Mario Vaquerizo, on C. Tangana's criticism of 'OT': "he gave his opinion"

Operación Triunfo faces the final stretch of its contest. The Amazon Prime Video talent show will hold the grand finale on February 19, where one of the contestants will be proclaimed the winner of one of the editions that is causing the most talk on social networks. And despite being the first edition to be broadcast exclusively on a streaming platform, the good habits of the program's staunch followers are still present, such as commenting on everything that happens on different platforms.

And there is no edition of this television format that does not raise passions or generate countless controversies on social networks. One of the most memorable controversies was the one starring C.Tangana in the 2018 edition. The singer performed at one of the contest's galas and after finishing the song he left the stage without even saying goodbye to the person who was the presenter at that time. , Roberto Leal. An uncomfortable situation that the presenter got around with the famous phrase: "See you later Maricarmen."

The singer opened up about all this controversy on Jordi Évole's program, broadcast a few weeks ago. The artist confessed that he never understood the commotion that was caused by his attitude. ''They looked for it, because I told them: ''I'm going, I do the performance and I'm leaving,'' he commented.

In addition, the performer assured that he does not agree with the music industry that comes out of a format like Operación Triunfo. ''I think that a person who goes to a program called Operación Triunfo, which is not called Operación Cante or Operación Música; "I think he's about success, not about music, art or the artist," he asserted.

The artist's words once again generated a lot of excitement among followers of the format and provoked an immediate reaction from the management team. ''I understand that people who have no focus or loudspeaker add to the criticism of Operación Triunfo. But I can't conceive that established artists, with success, reputation and career, waste their time with us. We're just a television show. We don't play your league,' Tinet Rubira wrote in his X profile.

Now, several weeks after what happened, Mario Vaquerizo wanted to talk about the singer's controversial words in an interview with El Televisero. '' C.Tangana as a free being has given an opinion, he considers whether he likes him or not. He is not condemning anything and everyone can say what they want,' stressed the vocalist of the Nancys Rubias. ''Operation Triumph is a contest and whoever wins has triumphed,'' he declared. But yes, he also assured that "triumph is always in oneself."
