Unbelievable! Two important hosts fought over Icardi's fake lawyer.

Afternoon television added a new chapter of tension and competition between programs last Thursday. The protagonist of the conflict was Ángela Burgos, the lawyer who gained notoriety for suing Mauro Icardi, and whose media presence created an internal conflict between Intrusos (América TV) and A La Tarde, the show hosted by  Karina Mazzocco.

Burgos was scheduled to appear live on A La Tarde, but first surprised with a phone appearance on Intrusos, hosted by Adrián Pallares and Rodrigo Lussich. This caused discontent in the production of Mazzocco's show, where the lawyer eventually attended, although she ended up leaving the live broadcast visibly upset.

Intrusos defended themselves. Paula Varela, a panelist on the show, clarified on LAM: “She wanted to appear with us because it seems she is a friend of Pablo Layus. It wasn't malice toward A La Tarde. Ours wasn't a theft, it was a loan. It's not the same to have her on the phone as to have her live,” she joked.

Pallares also gave his version: “We didn't know there was a conflict. The problem started when Karina introduced her as Mauro Icardi's lawyer, and that caused confusion”. Indeed, the title with which Burgos was introduced would have made both the footballer's entourage and the production uncomfortable.

According to Marcela Tauro, Burgos and Icardi might have had a previous connection: “It seems they met a long time ago, and that explains some attitudes”. Meanwhile, Paula Varela recalled that the lawyer was very upset when the program insinuated that she had met the player at a nightclub, which she categorically denied.

The tension grew when it was revealed that Icardi might have been angry with Burgos for talking about his legal situation with Wanda Nara on A La Tarde. From Mazzocco's program, they clarified that, at all times, the lawyer was willing to talk about the case and never denied having a connection with the player.

Although it all seemed like a simple scheduling move, the clash between programs exposed the strong competition for the most sought-after interviewees, but the audience was surprised by the tense situation caused by a relatively insignificant guest.
