For a few years now, First Dates has become the perfect place for hundreds of people to try to find love. Carlos Sobera and Laura Boado welcome different diners every day, who cross the doors of the restaurant with the great hope of meeting a special person with whom they can start a beautiful love story.
However, viewers of the format witness every night that not all diners who come to Cuatro’s space manage to feel that special chemistry they were looking for. A fact that future diners are also aware of, who, for some time now, have been coming to the program with a totally different mentality.
And given the gigantic number of love failures that the program broadcasts, many show up solely with the aim of having a pleasant and entertaining time. In addition, others take advantage of the impact of the program to explain their experience on social networks. Something that the content creator Mary Aranda decided to do, who a few hours ago shared a video on her TikTok profile in which she revealed the biggest secrets of the program.
”Yes, I’ve been to First Dates and of course they pay you to go,” he began. Later, the young woman explained that the program also paid all the diners the round trip ticket to Madrid and that the dates that appear in the program do not occur at night, but are recorded in the morning. ”I didn’t go to First Dates to find love, but to go on television and go viral,” she declared.
Regarding the conversations that occur during dates, the content creator explained that “nothing was scripted” and that only the program team suggested topics to talk about. ”But if you don’t want to talk about them, you don’t talk about them,” she said.
Likewise, the young woman revealed that her date had been a failure because she had not seen the boy she had dinner with again. ”The program came out three months after I recorded the appointment,” she said. Regarding whether the blind date was completely real, the TikToker explained that everything was true and that the couples did not know each other before entering the restaurant. ”It’s very well done,” she commented. Of course, the young woman confirmed that paying for dinner “was a joke.” ”When you leave, they give you your money back,” she clarified.
