Eleonora Cassano/Pablo Juin - Score: 17
After a severe argument with one of the juries, Anibal Pachano decided not to perform today and go straight to the telephone decision.
This is what happened today:
Basically, this is the whole situation:
Pachano - who is a choreographer, director and performer - staged a new musical including in the cast to Moria Casán new protégée, Victoria Xipolitakis - yes the same one who participated in this competition and was obliterated on the telephone by Maria Eugenia Ritó a couple months ago -.
During one of the performances, a Xipolitakis fan keep molesting the audience everytime she was not on the stage. While doing one of his monologues, Pachano asked this person to shut up as his attitude was disrepectful toward his persona and the rest of the people.
Xipolitakis started a tour on different tv shows saying that this was a personal attack to her. The whole thing escalates to a level in which she ended out of the play.
And here's where the conflict heat up, because Moria says that she tell them to abandon the play, while Pachano says they fired her. So today, when Marcelo Tinelli (the host) asked him about all of this, the battle started. Moria accuses him of being a
"serial liar", a
"mess", a
"misogynist" and some more things. He then says that he was not going to tolerate this kind of accusations and he wouldn't dance if Moria Casán was there and that he prefered to go straight to the telephone.
Marcelo and producers tried to convince him on contrary, but unsuccesfully.
