That the social elevator may be broken, but the one that takes you from low culture to high culture is working at full capacity; confirmed it OT opening its ninth gala with wild fillythe camp anthem that became popular last year thanks to sporting events. Well it wasn’t funny to see the testosterone-fueled players of the national team singing that “Like a wild filly who doesn’t lose consciousness in the waves, I don’t want reins or horseshoes and at the tributes I wear a dress”. Let’s see who took Isabel Aaiún seriously when the phenomenon began, and here she is now filling the halls and sharing a group performance with the contestants of Operation Triumph.
Glory came to Aaiún through popular festivals. Before entering the charts, he reigned in the playlist of orchestras, that ecosystem all its own star systemin which everything coexists, from hyper-professional groups with Broadway-style costumes and millionaire caches, to duos who always receive names like Esplendor or Reflejos and are usually two first cousins with an accordion and a Casio PT1. There cannot be more pure and genuine art. Never miss the festivals, pilgrimages and Prao festivals. The wild filly was also in the soup, it was a SlowlyA AserejeA MacarenaA Little birds here, little birds over there. Although the omnipresence of Rosalía’s songs is now shocking, the normal thing has always been that every now and then an artist would make his way across the quadrants and into neighbors’ yards. This week, the Catalan told Jimmy Fallon about the 13 languages she uses Lux They are the work and grace of Duolingo, the tongues of fire of Pentecost transformed into apps. In the end, the little bird was Bjork, but also the relentless Duolingo owl. Today I woke up to a text from him saying he misses me: “Just wanted to see if you were there,” he texted me. Sometimes an app pays more attention to you than to you situationlove in modern life.
The friendly greenish nocturnal bird could also have written to me “I don’t know if you’ve forgotten about me, probably”, sang Rocío Dúrcal in Your love was so smallthe song Lucia performed last night as if she knew she would never sing as a contestant again. It felt like a goodbye and not too triumphant. It was impossible not to remember the epic The cat in the rain that Naiara scored in the last edition. And now I pause to remember that its composer Rafael Pérez Botija may not have a Nobel Prize like Dylan or sixteen Oscar nominations like Diane Warren, but he wrote “if we ever see each other around, invite me for a coffee and make love to me”. Eternal glory to him. And I ask for another impasse to wonder where Naiara is and reflect on how little the Academy exit order really matters.
Guille Toledano struggled with the falsettos of Mick Hucknall, the red of Simple Red, in starsa complicated situation that he resolved, although given his popularity outside the Academy and the fact that it was yet another of Lucía’s appointments, the expulsion was quite predictable. When the percentages were finally revealed, she didn’t seem too impressed with the decision; At least he got to experience the record signing where contestants stamped their signature on a pillow and several boobs, but who doesn’t walk around with a pen and paper anymore. There was a stain on the happy event. An assistant approached Guillo Rist and blamed him for Lucía’s appointment.
It always amazes me who goes into places to scold the staff, like those people who get up one day and decide to go and shout insults at Isabel Pantoja or Shakira or Zaplana at the entrance to a court. Asking for a day’s work to go away; You must have an empty life. When it’s much more practical to compose a song for them, like Sabrina Carpenter did Male childa settling of scores between the singer and her ex, the actor Barry Keoghan, played by Olivia and Cristina. Chenoa took advantage of pisuerguismo to drive a wedge on men’s maturity, as if it were very mature to resolve intimate issues on MTV. I don’t know how people continue to have relationships with songwriters when they know that at the very least they discourage you ass and even with a first and last name. One thing by the way now, we have been wondering for more than fifty years who are the “so vanity” that Carly Simon sang for.
Guillo Rist emerged very gracefully from the rudeness of the idler who came to scold him and also from the interpretation of Pilgrim by Carlos Ares, during which he showed off his voice and acting. At least for the general public, the jury felt that he should be nominated, although they stressed that he was the contestant who worked the hardest. It seems like Shylock’s The Merchant of VeniceIn addition to the skin, they want a pound of meat. They were more lenient with Crespo, who continues for another week with the Hold my hand by Jess Glynne, another one of those songs that became popular thanks to TikTok. I’m starting to think Crespo has hung the jury. Don’t rule it out, the magic thing is very accessible. This week I found an announcement in my mailbox from a shaman from Malaga; Let it not be said that witchcraft has no geographical mobility, that it offered me seven-knot Candomblé voodoo and Yoruba santeria to guarantee me love, health or money; Since all three things are good for me, I wrote the number on a pillow.
They were not so merciful to Téyou, who looked after him Super empty by Vic Mirallas, composer and professor at the Academy. Chenoa, with shoulder pads like an evil soap opera from the 1980s who launches a hostile bid in the morning and seduces a hunk with silver rods in the afternoon, I felt the vibrations of a jazz club and I heard the B-side of Presuntos Implicados, and that’s not necessarily a good thing. Téyou was accused of not banging the table, but even Barbra Streisand wouldn’t have excelled with that material. This week they proposed her for the nomination because they believe “she will be good”. They needed to say, “He who loves you well will make you cry” or “It’s not you, it’s me.” Claudia Arenas, who played Latin girl by Emilia Menes, and she believes it more and more, even if the jury does not agree with her in sentiment.
Cristina was chosen as favorite. “The clearest project,” according to Abraham Mateo. In short, the most marketable, because there are never enough post-teens singing about heartbreak. The fact that it was unnameable saved it despite over-braking more than once. His partner Olivia wasn’t as lucky. Tinho was also spared, as he completed the complicated one Beautiful thingsbecause look, it’s hard to compete in lungs and enthusiasm with Benson Boone. Leire Martínez, who like the entire jury lives possessed by the good cop syndrome, declared that he speaks to her in “mother mode” and Tinho replied that she is a “very good mother for her age”. One of those complicated phrases, like “you’re so pretty, you don’t look like yourself.” Flattery that ruins your day.
Guillo, Téyou, Olivia and Claudia were the four nominees and could easily have been the four finalists. The teachers saved Olivia and the classmates saved Claudia, leaving Téyou and Guillo at the mercy of the spectators, two names who appeared in all the groups as final winners and two good friends within the program. Maybe that’s why they didn’t seem too impressed, or why life at the Academy doesn’t seem to exude emotion, or why they think that the exit is not the end, but only the beginning, of what? is the question. Perhaps from a career like that of Ana Mena, who this week returned as a guest star in a show too dazzled by itself. He repeats guest artists, resorts week after week to visits from former contestants and now even songs from his teachers. It’s difficult to decipher whether the program’s apparent disinterest in surprising viewers is caused by the fact that they have already canceled the edition or whether it is doing so well that it is not worth putting any further effort into.
Of course, it does not seem that the negative comments on the networks influence them, unlike TVE, for which the “listening process” offered by the networks helped to realize that Until the end of the worldtheir new competition of celebrities doing things, couldn’t last until two in the morning because people have to rest, even the slackers who get out of bed just to scold Isabel Pantoja.
