The final stretch of MasterChef Celebrity Argentina has been overshadowed by a new scandal. While the show hosted by Wanda Nara remains strong in prime time, reports have begun to emerge about an uncomfortable episode during the recording of the finale.
According to journalist Guido Záffora, one of the finalists allegedly attended the last day of filming in a state of intoxication after the show's closing party. "The finale is being recorded and there is a finalist who left the party wasted last night", he wrote on social media, quickly sparking controversy.
The situation reportedly caused concern both among the production team and the host herself, given the uncertainty about how the recording of a key stage of the reality show would unfold.

For much of the season, the show maintained an image of harmony among the contestants. However, in recent weeks, reports of discontent, anger, and alleged "favoritism" in the decisive stretch began to leak.
The hashtag #ChoreoGate, used by Záffora, fueled speculation on social media. Some users pointed directly at Maxi López, one of the most media-exposed contestants in the competition, whose name had already been linked to rumors of favoritism. So far, there have been no official confirmations about who was involved in the incident.
The scandal was not limited to the alleged excesses at the party. Days earlier, another controversy shook the competition when, according to journalist Paula Varela, a celebrity eliminated before the finale left amid shouts, denouncing an alleged "fix" in his exit. "They kicked him out and he got extremely angry. He left shouting 'this is rigged'", she claimed.

These reports have put the show's transparency under scrutiny just as the broadcast of the most anticipated episode of the season approaches. The production is maintaining absolute secrecy to avoid leaks about the result, but the atmosphere behind the scenes reportedly would no longer be the same.
While the audience waits to see the outcome on screen, what happens behind the scenes seems far from calm. Amid accusations of favoritism, anger over eliminations, and now an alleged embarrassing incident at the party, the MasterChef Celebrity finale promises to generate discussion even before it airs.
