In addition to knowing the new lives of Inma González, Pedro Oliva, Conchi and Pamela or Chiqui, a few weeks ago that the magazine readings could know what was the reflection that Sabrina Mahí made, winner of the second edition of ‘Big Brother’. Fully removed from the media, which won the briefcase in 2002, prefers to stay out of television. An unexpected decision that caught us by surprise.
But it seems not to be the only one. From this medium we have contacted Vanessa Pascual, one of the most iconic contestants of the first edition of the Mediaset coexistence contest. She was among the first inhabitants of the house of Guadalix de la Sierra and we all remember her mythical “Jo-de-Te” phrase to his partner Silvia. A moment that will go down in television.
With a lot of personality and character, Vanessa found that it was one of the most criticized participants. Because? If we analyze all the faces that have gone through the history of ‘GH’ the truth is that she should not have received so much hate. But it is possible that our country was not yet prepared for such a overwhelming woman and with her own voice.
Back in 2000 we all seemed very modern but maybe we were not so much. If we remember that Nagore Robles was expelled with the highest percentage in the history of reality in Spain and the second world (95%) when he really did not have such bad character, we must think that a decade before it is very possible that a woman who had her own ideas in the contest did not like the audience too much.
And so it happened. Vanessa was branded as the very bad edition after becoming the third expelled (After three volunteer abandonments) with almost 43% of the votes and after spending only 38 days in the contest. A position not deserved. Of course, at least he can boast that he knew the love of his life: Nacho Rodríguez. The contestant had to leave the house for the delicate health of his father, who ended up dying shortly after.
After a long courtship the two exhabitants of the house of ‘Big Brother’ They gave the ‘yes, I want’ and formed a family. They have two teenage children, live in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and have a life totally away from the media, what has been of them? How are they currently?
This medium has found Vanessa, who does not have social networks, and wanted to know how he is 25 years after having embarked on that adventure of live life. After the program, Pascual was director and owner of an Adolfo Domínguez store for more than ten years in Salamancaa time in which he also studied an international online master’s degree in monitoring clinical trials in CESIF. But not only that, after joining as Data Manager at the Canarian Cancer Research Institute (where he spent more than six years) the former Granmana undertook a new position in 2021 at the Fernando Pessoa University of the Canary Islands, where he has been working as Secretary of Department Directors and where he is currently still.
I reluctant about giving an interview, Vanessa has thanked our proposal but believes that having moved away from the media as soon as they left the contest and with two teenage children you do not feel like appearing again on the front page. In fact, the one who was a ‘GH’ contestant has not revealed that he felt that at that time he did not have a good experience with the media: “I don’t have a good memory and I don’t want to get into that gear“.
Moreover, Pascual is very clear that people do 25 years later do they really do the same. But it’s not like that! Vanessa has also told us that during this time she has had time to see what her people currently think on social networks (less bad than at that time there was not) and at least she has realized that the comments have changed a lot. But still prefers to stay away from the media and not give any interview as such. A decision quite similar to that of Sabrina Mahí.
