Pablo Motos It’s news. The presenter and producer of the most watched program in Spain, logically, is news. This Monday he revealed his worst experience with Botox in El Hormiguero: “It was horrible,” he said. Motorcycles Sergio Dalma chatted on his set. He started the week with a visit from the singer, who came to the set of the Antena 3 program to present his new album Smile because you are in the photo. The Catalan singer and his contemporary praised the virtues of vinyl, which has once again established itself with force: “I’m a fan,” Pablo Motos told his guest.
Sergio Dalma He explained his experience with Botox. “I said: ‘I’m going to have a little bite. And after two days I looked like Mairena’s Carmen. My eye was half closed. The swelling wouldn’t go away,’ she commented. Dalma confessed to her interviewer that she had had his bad experience and Requena’s admitted that he had too. Pablo Motos was also encouraged and revealed his worst experience with Botox. “I understand you. I had the same experience as you. They left me Chinese. It was horrible,” he began by saying before giving more details. “We went to a place. My wife told me: ‘No Botox’. The next day I go and say put that on me. They poke me… and in the elevator I realize that there is a Chinese man looking at me.”
From the last anecdote we draw several conclusions.
1) Everything that happens on the most watched program on television, with millions of viewers, is news, creates controversy and is news.
2) Pablo Motos makes mistakes sometimes (and admits it).
3) Not everything a presenter does or says has bad intentions: ‘He looked like a Chinese’ is not a racist offense against Chinese people.
But Pablo Motos, perhaps without intending it but in the exercise of his freedom, he has become one of Pedro Sánchez’s main scourges. The Moncloa apparatus waits in hiding for Pablo Motos’ mistakes and errors to attack him, discredit him or launch their missiles at him.
But it seems that Pablo Motos It is the Correcaminos and Moncloa and its media bullies are the Coyote. Because no matter how much the Valencian showman tries to turn around, with his successes and well-known excesses, Motos manages to gather more than 2.5 million Spaniards every night in front of the fire he lights in that hypnotic fireplace called El Hormiguero, an enviable platform for the artist who has to sell a series, movie, album or musical. People watch El Hormiguero and the protagonists, celebrities and personalities who want to sell something, promote whatever or convey an opinion go to the program: because it is the most watched. It doesn’t matter what it is Alfonso Guerra or Sergio Dalma.
“Shame” of being Spanish for amnesty
The program has been on the air for 17 years and anyone who does not appear on the program, in many aspects, does not exist. Those responsible for the political campaign that has awakened against him to make his criticism of Sánchez inaudible know this well, to whom a few days ago he blurted out that he gave him Shame on being Spanish because of the amnesty. You may or may not agree with that position, but there is no doubt that Motos has every right to give its opinion however it wants and even more so if it does so from a private medium.
You have to be very naive not to think that the attacks against Pablo Motos come after such forceful statements. Nor do they forgive the presenter for sheltering anti-sanchistas like Alfonso Guerra. The former vice president, who did not have the most successful night, spoke a few days ago that you can no longer make jokes “about midgets and ladybugs.”
And, yes, that comment has exploded with Motos, who many want to sweep away. Jorge Javier Vazquez and not agree with the Government party, astonished to see that Guerra contributed last week to El Hormiguero beating rseason record with 2,710,000 viewers and a screen share of 19.5%, figures that are unthinkable today on television. Yes, Pablo Motos is wrong, but there are slogans to amplify mistakes.
A former collaborator of La Tuerka lights his cannons
The first to throw stones at the Moto camp was Facu Diaz, former headlining comic Pablo Iglesias and today he has become the whip of Movistar Plus+ or El Hormiguero. “You have to be a cynic and a scoundrel to say that while you are maneuvering with people from your production company and your network to call others to stop laughing at you. How can you have so little shame, self-conscious,” said Díaz .
The former collaborator of La Tuerka exceeded the admissible limits by seeking personal offense towards Motos: “These types of characters who are so insecure and have so many self-esteem problems, and who tolerate so little that jokes are made about them, they become producers to later eliminate that comic dissidence. “You are the laughing stock of the industry, but you are so powerful and have so much money that people are afraid of you.”
And he was wrong to assure that many people go to El Hormiguero out of obligation, when the program has an infinite list of characters who would cut off their toe to appear for a few seconds to promote their latest project. But Facu does not seem to want to find out and assures that “Pablo Motos is a guy with a lot of power in the industry for promotional purposes, for example. The supporters club has to go to their program, often obliged by contract, to promote their moves. What he achieves is that people stop making jokes about him publicly because he then demands accountability and makes calls.”
Hurry finishes the stew
In the heat of Díaz’s sticks, the Prisa cannons have emerged, which at the precise time have opened the ban against a winner like Motos, who exercises his freedom from a private environment and receives shrapnel smacking of interests from public organizations that should not dedicate themselves to the persecution of the ideological adversary.

The country is not cut off
José Miguel Contreras and Miguel Barroso, star advisors of Pedro Sánchez and directors of the Prisa Group, they oversee the newspaper El País, from which the always accurate Jimina Sabadú also dedicated a column taking advantage of Pablo Motos’ mistake. “There are many people offended by not being able to laugh at dwarfs, gangsters and sissies. What happens is that Motos, if you make a joke about him or if you criticize his program, opens the windows of El Hormiguero and launches the flying monkeys in search of you. It doesn’t matter if you laugh at his appearance, at his sexist comments, or at his Bikram asanas. Motos’ henchmen will find you. They will shake you until you admit to loving, even just a little bit, his leader,” says the writer.
The red-haired Prince of Requena
Sabadú speaks about the issue like this: “A pilgrimage of those affected (some, apparently, threatened) has raised their voices, and I join them. A subordinate called on a holiday and had me for three hours debating whether or not it is appropriate for me to have a negative opinion about the red-haired Prince of Requena. It worked. I didn’t talk about him again until today. Rather than a hidden aggressive telephone call, I prefer a direct threat, basically because the latter is dispatched in a few seconds. “Oh, Motos… how little yoga helps you.” Nor does it seem to help the bosses of Prisa much, who are more interested in discrediting Motos than in improving the situation of his company.
