La Granja VIP Elimination Follows Rule Twist and Viral Backlash Targeting Influencer Omahi

Public voting capped a four-way nomination week, setting up a new legacy nomination to be revealed in Monday’s gala.

Overview

  • A last-minute production change and Sergio Mayer Mori’s on-air stance placed Omahi and Kike Mayagoitia on the block alongside Lis Vega and Eleazar Gómez.
  • The influencer faced heavy criticism after telling a castmate that his image is worth gold and he lives off brand deals, a clip that went viral and fueled the #OmahiFuera trend.
  • Multiple fan polls over the weekend showed roughly 4% support for Omahi, the lowest among the nominees heading into the vote.
  • The Sunday gala concluded with one contestant leaving through the show’s public vote process, in a week that featured four nominees for the first time this season.
  • Under the format’s “legacy” mechanic, the departing participant selected the first nominee for the new week, with the name set to be announced in the next broadcast.
