Samantha Batallanos Claps Back at Álvaro Rod Over 'Interesada' Jab With Viral 'Misios' Quote

Álvaro Rod is leaving live stages for mental‑health reasons with a farewell concert planned in Lima.

Overview

  • In a Radio Corazón rapid‑fire segment, Álvaro Rod said he would dedicate the song “Interesada” to an ex, a remark widely read as aimed at Samantha Batallanos.
  • Batallanos posted “Solo los misios hablan así,” a phrase that quickly went viral, and later expanded on her response in comments to Trome.
  • She mocked the singer by saying she felt relieved to be without “un misio manganzón” and that she was “mucha manzana para ese gusanito.”
  • The pair dated for about five months and announced their breakup in July, with both denying the involvement of a third person and saying they kept a friendship.
  • Separately, Rod told RPP’s Encendidos he will retire from live performance for mental‑health reasons and plans a Lima farewell show titled “Una última vez,” adding that a past Magaly TV appearance was a “bad experience.”
