What Marixa Balli said about her replacement on Pasión de sábado
Marixa Balli will host Pasión de sábado this Saturday during Marcela Baños' vacation. In an interview with Desayuno Americano on América TV, she addressed the rumors about a supposed "Betrayal of Saturday."
“But stop messing with that! What a desire to ruin Marcela Baños' vacation! You're going to traumatize her, leave her alone,” stated Marixa Balli.
The dancer also explained that she did prior rehearsals to familiarize herself with the studio and the technical conditions of the show.
“We did a floor recognition for the type of heel I use, camera distance, lighting, basic things. I wanted to get on the floor to hear my voice,” she explained.
Regarding her temporary arrival at the helm, Marixa Balli denied any intention to displace Marcela Baños.
What did Marixa Balli say about her replacement on Pasión de sábado
“Instead of having that spot empty, there is someone occupying that spot, nothing more. What betrayal. Betrayal is backstabbing, and there are no intentions of backstabbing,” she affirmed.
In that line, she cited Daniel Casanolvo as an example, who remembers that she was his first seller.

“When one talks about someone, it's to highlight them, not to minimize. I am primarily a dancer, so I believe she minimizes herself, not me,” she stated.
Marixa Balli's response about whether she should thank Marcela Baños
The opportunity to host Pasión de sábado also led Marixa Balli to question whether she should thank Marcela Baños for taking her place.
“Do I have to thank? She went on vacation. Why should I thank? I'm working, they called me, and the channels arranged it. So, do I owe something?” she posed.

Finally, Marixa Balli left open the possibility that there might still be some unresolved issue between them, although she considered that they had already talked about their differences.
“Maybe there's something unresolved that we should talk about, but I thought that when she came to LAM, everything was defined. It's done, we've talked about it, how many times are we going to keep discussing the same issue?” she concluded.
