The 11th gala of Tu cara suena me experienced an exciting moment when remembering the late Àlex Casademunt thanks to the imitation that Agustín Jiménez had to face. The comedian joined the impersonator Raúl Pérez to sing Two men and one destiny, causing Chenoa and Merche to be unable to hold back their tears.
The program asked the imitators to be based on the interpretation that the Spaniard made with Sergio Dalma, but in reality this song became popular thanks to the two former triumphs and has become a generational anthem. Although he was not imitated on stage, everyone kept in mind the memory of the former Operación Triunfo participant.
It wasn't long after the performance when the camera fixed on Merche, who couldn't hold back her tears when she remembered her partner for several years. Neither did Chenoa, who shared great moments with him at the academy and became a phenomenon with millions of followers.
At the end, Manel Fuentes wanted to interrupt the program to ask for applause for the contestant, still with tears in his eyes. "I imagine that it is a song full of memories for you", he would ask her, to which she did not want to forget about Dalma, but remembered that "this song is Àlex Casademunt".
After the applause of the public, the Andalusian looked at Chenoa, who could not suppress her emotion either. "We took a look at each other when they put the beginning and, obviously... it doesn't matter...", she had to interrupt as she had a lump in her throat and burst into tears again.
Merche recalled a beautiful time in her life: "It was right at the beginning of starting to be dating, which then lasted five years." The presenter took the opportunity to confirm if the lyrics of this song were dedicated to her, as was rumored at the time, something that he denied on camera.
Finally, the contestant of Tu cara me suena ended this emotional moment looking up at the sky and shouting: "I love you Àlex Casademunt! We love you! Artist!". Manel wanted to send a memory to the whole family of him in this impromptu tribute.
The former participant in the first edition of Operación Triunfo died on March 2, 2021 in a tragic traffic accident when he collided with a bus at a roundabout in the Barcelona town of Mataró. A large part of his colleagues from the talent show gathered at his funeral, leaving some of the most exciting images.
