Mercedes Milá is one of the most beloved presenters and communicators in our country. Although she has done all kinds of journalism during her vast career, many remember her as the mythical presenter of Big Brother, a program that made her shine like nobody else and put the audience in her pocket every Thursday.
Although she decided to step aside and make way for other presenters, Milá has closely followed Mediaset’s reality shows as a good lover of reality television and the skin-deep emotions presented by the contestants of these programs. One of her favorite contests is Survivors, so she has not hesitated to give her opinion about the competition through her Instagram account.
Although she has shared her point of view through stories and has uploaded a video, the communicator has expressed herself above all with three posts in which from the beginning she showed her liking for Asraf Beno, Isa Pantoja’s future husband and one of the most controversial contestants of this edition.
Milá was very indignant at criticizing the hatred that the Moroccan aroused in his classmates: “No one has managed, for me, to give a single argument that justifies their attacks on this contestant, none.” She also criticized the attitude of Adara, who was Beno’s friend during the first part of the contest, facing him weeks later.
The presenter came to blame Asraf Beno’s Arab origin as one of the reasons for the “harassment” of his colleagues: “Asraf is Moroccan and although he has lived in Spain for almost all his life, for many people, even though he speaks perfect Spanish, will always be an immigrant”. These accusations of racism sowed controversy on the Internet to such an extent that Adara’s mother, Elena Rodríguez, commented expressing that she was very disappointed with this gratuitous attack on her daughter.
Days later, with the arrival of the contestants in Spain, Milá celebrated in front of his more than 297,000 followers that peace would reign again among the candidates for victory: “Happiness is to see that harmony, laughter and hugs have returned . It wasn’t that difficult but it was hard. That marvelous house in the Sierra de Madrid full of lavender plants and food, has restored balance to the 5 finalists”. In addition to celebrating the attitude of the finalists, Milá also lamented the expulsion of Artur Deinese at the gates of the last gala.
Despite the fact that she knew that it would cost her endless criticism, Mercedes Milá decided to upload a publication to Instagram yesterday in which she explains why Asraf Beno is her clear winner. The presenter explained that she gave the 200,000 euros to the former GH VIP contestant at the moment she opened up with Madrueño and expressed that she missed a pardon from Adara, to which her mother reacted from the set with a laughter. Milá did not let this moment go by and praised Beno’s attitude: “This boy who has not done anything else throughout the contest but swim against the current without even today knowing why they didn’t want him.”
“Asraf Beno is the only human being with whom I would go on a trip, with him and his girl who has become, for me, a school of life,” the communicator stated clearly in the post that It already accumulates more than 21,000 ‘likes’ and 3,800 comments.
