Last monday, MasterChef He experienced a surprising situation even for the members of the program themselves. And it is that Tamaraone of the contestants of the most famous cooking contest on Spanish television, announced his intention to leave to take care of your mental and emotional health after feeling excess pressure in the television space. “Forgive me, but It is more important to be well “Let me disappoint you,” was what he said. The judges reactionhowever, was not the best: although Pepe Rodríguez did seem interested in the state of the contestant, Samantha Vallejo-Nágera and, especially, Jordi Cruzthey criticized harshly his decision to leave.
The spectator reaction on social networks it didn’t take long to wait either, but unlike inside MasterChefpeople he showed solidarity with Tamara and made the chefs ugly lack of sensitivity for the psychological well-being of the contestant. In fact, the commotion was such that even Monica Garciathe Minister of Health, harshly criticized what happened, and finally RTVE announced the withdrawal of the episode from its web platform: “We regret the broadcast of content that It shouldn’t have happened. The management has reinforced the controls internal to avoid similar episodes. RTVE reiterates its commitment with mental health.”

However, a few hours before RTVE released the statement, it was Tamara herself who posted a video in xformerly Twitter, offering a new version of events occurred and explaining some lived situations during your stay at MasterChef. The first thing she wanted to refer to was the fact that, for her, “attacking orders is not a problem.” However, she also added that the core of the contest was not what is seen from the outside: “No. you know what the game is really like until you play it”.
But what was the game really like? For her, a “constant confrontation between colleagues, scratching saucesthat judge my work, let it be debated who I love more, not learn cooking…”. These are, he stated in the video, some of the reasons why she made the decision to leave. “There are those who say that I went looking for fame. Not to sound like a diva, far from it, but on the street I am recognized for my finance videos, not for my time in MasterChef. In any case I have generated more for them engagement than any other contestant so far.”
In another post on the same social network, Tamara assured that she did not know the dynamics of the famous contest either: “I confess that I didn’t see the program and I didn’t imagine what it was going to be like show talent to which they had invited me to present.” Maybe that’s what gave him the worth to face the judges, who on many other occasions have shown similar attitudes with other applicants in the program.
“The saddest thing about being honest, and not everyone likes you, is that does not like”, he ended up saying in the video. “I’m sorry to say, friends, that not everyone is going to like you. AND the best thing is to show your way of being to let go of what is not good for you, or what does not contribute to you. I say goodbye with my favorite phrase: my personality is who I am and my attitude depends on who you are”.
