Telecinco Confirms Lydia Lozano as Collaborator on ¡De Viernes!

The network is positioning her reunion with Santi Acosta as a driver of its Friday entertainment push.

Overview

  • Telecinco made the hire official with a promo showing Lozano arriving at Mediaset in a red convertible and crossing the channel’s reception.
  • Lozano will debut on Friday, September 5, joining the program’s new season led by Santi Acosta and Beatriz Archidona and sharing the set with both.
  • Appearing on Tardear after the promo aired, Lozano said she cried upon re-entering Telecinco’s reception, marking her return to the network’s prime time after Sálvame.
  • The on-air pairing follows her recent podcast remarks criticizing Acosta as “the worst presenter” and her account of a past on‑air humiliation that she says he later apologized for.
  • A media show reported an unconfirmed fee of €2,000–€4,000 per episode and possible network-level terms, and Lozano joked on air about the rumored pay using the promo’s convertible as a punchline.
