Video: the awkward moment of La Tora during the Gran Hermano casting

Big Brother 2026 has already started to generate controversy even before its premiere. During one of the castings for the Telefe reality show, Lucila "La Tora" Villar experienced a moment of extreme tension while she was doing a live remote segment.

The situation was captured on video and quickly went viral on social media, where many users highlighted the reaction and professionalism of the former participant.

The tense clash during the Big Brother casting

The incident took place this Tuesday at the Telefe studios, in the context of the casting for Big Brother: Golden Generation. La Tora was interviewing different applicants when a woman burst on camera with a disparaging comment about the show.

"I hope this year it won't be so sh*tty...", the applicant blurted out in front of the cameras. Far from ignoring it, Villar confronted her firmly and shot back: "Why are you signing up if you think that?".

Insults, shoves, and tension on the air

The streamer's response triggered an aggressive reaction. The woman began to interrupt interviews, insulted the host, and even went so far as to shove her while the remote segment was still live.

Despite the hostile atmosphere, La Tora chose to step aside, avoid a direct confrontation, and continue with her work. When she failed to gain prominence, the applicant raised her voice and shouted: "Don't play with people's hopes".

The controversy over Morena Rial and the casting

Meanwhile, the casting for Big Brother 2026 became embroiled in another controversy. According to what Yanina Latorre said on SQP (América), Morena Rial reportedly sent in her application to enter the reality show.

"She sent in the casting," the panelist claimed, generating surprise and ironic comments in the studio. The information sparked debate among the panelists, who questioned the feasibility of her participation.
