The fourth edition of MasterChef Celebrity Argentina returned with a renewed format, more technology, and a cast that combines figures from different worlds of entertainment, sports, and social media.
With Wanda Nara as host and the historic trio of judges —Donato De Santis, Germán Martitegui, and Damián Betular—, the show once again led the audience ratings in its time slot, reaching peaks of over 14 rating points.
Just a few weeks after the premiere, the audience already has its favorites. The Instagram account @ShowTrivia, known for conducting weekly polls on entertainment programs, shared a popularity survey that reveals who the most beloved participants of the culinary reality show are.
According to the poll, the big favorite this season is Valentina Cervantes, partner of player Enzo Fernández, who received 87% approval. The influencer, who stood out for her charm and authenticity on camera, quickly won the audience's affection and the judges' respect.

In second place is La Joaqui, with 84% support, thanks to her freshness, charisma, and spontaneity in every challenge. Third place goes to Chino Leunis, with 82%, while Momi Giardina achieved 81% and influencer Ian Lucas, 78%. In the middle of the table are Cachete Sierra and tennis player Peque Schwartzman, both with 76% approval.
The figures reflect how some participants, with no previous cooking experience, managed to stand out thanks to their attitude, sense of humor, and constant effort. In a competition where technique matters, but charisma also counts, social media has become a true barometer of each contestant's success.

Cervantes
Despite being the most beloved participant by the audience, Valentina Cervantes decided to leave the competition. The news was confirmed by journalist Ángel de Brito on LAM (América TV), who said: "Valentina Cervantes resigned from MasterChef Celebrity. Today she informed the production and it was confirmed to me by Telefe".
According to his explanation, the decision was motivated by personal and family reasons. "She resigned because Enzo Fernández can't take it anymore, he asked her to get on a plane to come back and she agreed", De Brito revealed. The departure would not be related to the media exchange that the influencer had weeks ago with Wanda Nara, but rather to the need to reunite with her partner and her daughter Olivia in Europe.
