Showmatch - Programa 12/10/18 - Los éxitos de Luis Miguel

Program aired on Friday, October 12, 2018 on eltrece. PREVIEW: LUIS MIGUEL'S HITS HAVE BEGUN ON BAILANDO. This Friday, October 12, five couples kicked off the competition's new dance style. JIMENA AND MAURO, A SUDDEN FLASH Jimena Barón and Mauro Caiazza were the first couple to dance for the competition, with a choreography to "Bikini Azul." Beforehand, Marcelo tried again to find Jimena a boyfriend. "I don't want a boyfriend, just someone to have fun with," the actress clarified. Before the judges' feedback and after watching the choreography, Marcelo inquired about the possibility of a romance between Jimena and Mauro, who, at the host's request, sang a duet of "Yellow" by Coldplay. "I feel there's tension, but more from her than from him," De Brito commented (6). And she added: “I liked that the choreography was very well-danced. It was very beautiful.” Laurita Fernández (8) highlighted: “Jimena connected with the actress. Mauro provided excellent support. It was a great choreography.” Florencia Peña (secret vote) commented: “I love that they have so much chemistry. I like that they explore that sexual side they both have.” And Marcelo Polino (7) added: “I liked it. The chemistry was noticeable and transcended. It was very good.” Total: 21 points. At De Brito's request, the BAR also gave its opinion: although it questioned Mauro's performance somewhat, it maintained the jury's score. CINTHIA, ANOTHER SUCCESS Cinthia Fernández performed “Será que no me amas” (Is It That You Don't Love Me?). Before the choreography, she told Marcelo about her birthday celebration with her boyfriend, Martín Baclini. Then, De Brito (4) led the feedback round: “I liked the choreography, it looked beautiful. Gonzalo had a great night, I'd like to see you dance more, Cinthia. It's the first time I've seen a dancer outshine you.” Laurita (9) gave her approval: “I really liked it. I thought he was cool. It was a wonderful performance.” Flor (secret vote) loved it: “It was a complicated song and they put a lot of passion into it. I don't agree with Ángel: for me, Cinthia danced a lot.” Meanwhile, Polino (8) also gave a thumbs up: “I liked it a lot.” The couple's coach, Paola García, requested the opinion of the BAR (Video Assistant Referee), which decided to add one more point. Total: 22 points. MICA'S BEST GALA Mica Viciconte and Nacho Saraceni performed the song “Cómo es posible” (How is it possible). Previously, Mica had expressed skepticism about receiving good feedback from Laurita. “I like Mica as a person because she doesn't come here pretending to be innocent, and I'm surprised by how much she's grown as a dancer. I loved today's performance,” De Brito congratulated her (10). “You prefer a different jury, I'd prefer all the contestants to be dancers,” Laurita (9) retorted. She added, “I think the critiques brought out something that wasn't there before. I saw you shine. I loved it.” Flor (secret vote) commented, “It was the best I've seen from you on the dance floor. I don't agree with Ángel that a person has to always say what they think to be authentic. I really liked the choreography.” Polino (6) concluded, “I agree with my colleagues that it was your best performance, but I don't like that you're going after Nicole Neumann. I'm going to lower your score for that.” Total: 25 points. MARCELA HAD A BAD NIGHT Marcela Baños and Matías Payen danced to the rhythm of “Dame.” De Brito (3) was the first to give his feedback and remarked: “Marcela is a surprise as a dancer, but she lacks power in the tricks.” Laurita (5) analyzed: “It’s clear they lacked rehearsal. I would have liked them to tell a story. I’m sure with more rehearsal they’ll do well.” Flor (secret vote) praised them: “I liked seeing you sexy, Marcela. There were some mistakes, but keep exploiting that sexy side.” In contrast, Polino (-1) was merciless: “I thought he was crazy, I didn’t like it at all.” Total: 7 points. Dissatisfied with the criticism, the couple’s coach, Barby Reali, requested the BAR (Video Assistant Referee), which opted to maintain the judges’ score. FLOR AND LUCAS, A PERFORMANCE TO FORGET Flor Marcasoli and Lucas Velasco closed the night with a choreography to “Culpable o no” (Guilty or Not). “Everyone says you two don’t get along, is that true?” Marcelo asked them beforehand. The couple denied having any problems and, after the dance, listened to the judges' scathing feedback. “I didn't like it. They're good dancers, but I didn't believe a word of what happened. The acting was awful,” De Brito (3) declared. “It's a dream for you to be here, and I think you're wasting the opportunity. Use this space for something else,” Laurita (3) advised Flor, who retorted: “Nobody supports you here. You have to stay humble.” Then, Laurita commented: “What I couldn't stand wasn't what you said, but what you did on the dance floor. I didn't like it at all.” Flor (secret vote) was also dissatisfied: “I didn't understand what they were trying to tell...
