After it was confirmed that Wanda Nara will be in charge of the next edition of Bake Off Argentinahe reality show of pastry that will have its fourth season in the country and that Telefe will broadcast again, in THE M (America) went looking for Paula Chavesthe host of the previous editions, to give her point of view.
“Did it hurt you that you were not called for Bake Off?” asked the notary Santiago Sposatto when he approached the woman from Pedro Alfonso. Paula’s first reflex was to hesitate and think inwardly for an answer, until she finally nodded her head. “HmmYes, yes, it hurt me. I wanted to use another word, I don’t know if it was ‘it hurt’. It hurts me but I also understand the situation,” the host began by expressing.
“’It hurt me’ seems to me to be saying it more from a place of anger and I’m not angry, far from it. But it is a project that I did for so long, that I loved doing, that marked a lot in my life and in my career, that I will be eternally grateful to Telefe for the opportunity it gave me and more,” Chaves added to continuation.
“But obviously it’s sad but I understand the situation of the channel, where they already had a production contracted, they had a host hired, where they were going to do a format that could not be done as Masterchefthey end up doing Bake Off and they already had a hired team. And well, it’s logical. I have been working on this for many years and I also understand these situations,” he said later, as if justifying and understanding the circumstance.
“Then you are calm that it was not because of how you did it…” Sposato said. “I don’t know, maybe. I have no idea, I’m not going to get into that, only the directors of Telefe know that. I think I did it very well and I had a great time doing it, I had fun,” she responded.
“I did three seasons of Bake Off and I think I did them well. The truth is that they always threw nice words at me. And everyone, both on the channel, as well as the people and like you, those in the middle, have always given me very good vibes, a lot of love. So I’m not the one who can tell you that I’m not there because they didn’t like my work. Or if this is why I’m talking to you, that sometimes there are hired hosts, productions and well, you have to create formats. And that’s how television is,” added the former model.
“And it just so happens that she is Zaira’s sister…”, the notary pointed out in reference to the rivalry that arose with the youngest of the Nara after she began a relationship with Facundo Polito Pieres, who in the past was Chaves’ partner. “And what does she have?” Paula answered with a smile full of irony. “Because of the morbidity of the programs, which say: ‘Oh, they just put your enemy’s sister…’”, added the mobile driver of the program hosted by Ángel de Brito. “Oh, not the enemy either, a lot,” replied the driver, wanting to de-dramatize the situation.
On the other hand, he said that there was no type of call from Wanda or Zaira about it, but that it is not something that affects him either. “There was no call, nothing. It’s not that everything was buried either. That’s it. Life itself,” Paula closed with another smile.
At the beginning of May, Wanda herself had confirmed that she would be leading this cycle. “Is it true that you are going to drive Bake off?”, a fan asked him through Instagram stories to which Nara clarified: “Yes, I am very happy and very grateful to Telefe that trusted me as a host and gives me the most beautiful formats”said the media and tagged the channel authorities.
As far as he could know Teleshow part of Telefe’s production, is that Damián Betular is already confirmed as a jury and that the next edition of Bake Off will star celebrities.
