Overview
- Galilea Montijo announced on August 17 that Ninel Conde received the fewest public votes and became the third contestant eliminated from the show.
- During the live elimination, El Guana, Facundo and Alexis Ayala were announced safe first, leaving Mar Contreras and Ninel Conde in the final carousel.
- In her post-elimination interview, Ninel expressed gratitude and cited “the time of God,” while Elaine Haro’s emotional reaction highlighted a strong bond between the two.
- Unverified claims from entertainment journalists suggest Ninel’s representative negotiated her removal as a damage-control measure, a report not confirmed by production.
- Audiences pointed to a temporary blackout of ViX’s 24/7 feed and footage of Ninel packing during the outage as signs of an arranged departure, and criticized the program for showing Elaine Haro crying in a bathroom.
