Mónica López’s words about a possible participation in El Hormiguero continue to generate repercussions two weeks later. The Catalan actress, star of the Rapa series on Movistar Plus, refused to attend the Pablo Motos program with her partner Javier Cámara. The interpreter expressed that she did not want to go to a space presented by a person who “whitens fascism.” Since then, various figures have spoken about it.
One of the last shifts corresponded to Mario Vaquerizo, who attended the Herrera program at COPE a few days ago and was asked about it by one of his collaborators, Goyo González. The leader of Nancys Rubias left a striking response in this regard: “That actress seems to me to be a completely absurd girl. She, if she wants to be a politician, that she dedicate herself to being a politician. Actress means entertaining and giving free rein to your acting ability. Don’t get into that mess.”
The singer, despite his words, claimed to have great respect for Mónica López, whom he considered “a great actress.” Even so, he chose to question her position and defend the El Hormiguero team. “I think it is disrespectful to that program that fulfills a mission that is to entertain every day everyone who goes there and the spectators,” he told the microphones next to Carlos Herrera.
“Beyond the fact that I have collaborated with them and I was there the other day. If she needs to say that well, we also need all artists to appreciate a program like El Hormiguero that allows us to promote our work, ”she insisted during her interview. Her reaction is one of several that have positioned themselves against the words of the protagonist of Rapa.
On the other hand, the Catalan has also received several messages in favor, such as that of her colleague Willy Toledo. The Madrid artist, who has always condemned the whitewashing of fascism, in addition to considering himself contrary to the ideas of parties like Vox, published a response on Twitter showing his support for the interpreter. “Someone had to say it and say it that clearly. My friend Mónica López is always huge, ”he wrote.
Going back to Vaquerizo, the renowned singer has not been spared from receiving criticism of a similar nature in recent days. After posting a photo on social networks wearing a Spanish Legion shirt, several users responded negatively, generating a long and extensive debate and confrontation in the comments.
