Surprise for the signing of Willy Bárcenas as judge of 'X Factor'

Telecinco would be finalizing the details for the relaunch of the musical talent X Factor, after six years of absence on the small screen, and would be working to premiere the program this coming spring. Although Ion Aramendi could be the new master of ceremonies, as El Televisero exclusively reports, one of the jury members will be Willy Bárcenas.

Lali Espósito and Abraham Mateo would accompany the leader of Taburete in this task, according to Yotele, and, as reported by Algo Pasa TV, Vanesa Martín would also assume this responsibility.

This would not be the singer's first television experience. He was one of the guests of El Hormiguero in 2019, and that same year he was also one of the protagonists of Chester. In a musical key, in 2022 he not only participated in Mask Singer but also became the runner-up.

The new edition of X Factor also brings with it changes to the mechanics of the show, eliminating categories based on gender and age to allow for more equal and exciting competition. Judges will form mixed teams of soloists and groups, adding a new level of dynamism and competitiveness to the competition.

With the promise of a spectacular set and high-level performances, the production is in the middle of the casting process to select the artists who will star in this new stage of the program. Mediaset hopes that this will be the most impressive edition in the history of the format in Spain, offering the public an unforgettable television experience.
