The competition continues to heat up in ‘La Casa de los Famosos All-Stars’, particularly centered around two strong contenders: Luca Onestini and Carlos Cruz, known as “Caramelo.” While Dania Méndez has already secured her place as the first finalist, Luca and Caramelo are under the spotlight, as both are fan favorites in the race for victory.
Luca, an Italian model, has been embroiled in various tensions, especially during his time in the ‘Agua’ room where he felt targeted for bullying. After a switch to the ‘Fuego’ room, he aligned himself with the “Palulus,” a group that includes Paulo Quevedo and Rosa Caiafa. On the other hand, Caramelo has accused Luca of being racially insensitive and expressed his discontent regarding Luca’s interactions with Manelyk González, demonstrating that his emotions can impact his game.
In evaluating their strengths, Caramelo has youthful energy and charisma that resonates well with the viewers, particularly his compelling life story. His background as a package delivery worker in Manhattan adds a relatable aspect to his persona, enhanced by his appeal and charm.
However, Caramelo’s fixation on Manelyk has drawn criticism from fans, as they feel it distracts him from his goals within the game. Despite his recent struggles, including a warning from ‘La Jefa’ for inappropriate comments, he seems to be refocusing now that Manelyk has exited the show.
Meanwhile, Luca is noted for his empathetic approach and maturity, providing support to fellow contestants during emotional moments. His personal connection with the audience is amplified by touching family stories, such as his mother’s visit from Italy. Yet, he too faces challenges; his attraction to Aleska Génesis and a recent incident where he nearly clashed with ‘La Jefa’ over her presence could hinder his standing in the competition.
The rivalry between Luca and Caramelo has spurred debate among fans, with some supporting Caramelo as their favorite while others argue for Luca’s appeal as the favored contestant on Telemundo. This week’s events are poised to be pivotal as the show progresses.
Fans can catch ‘LCDLF All-Stars’ on Telemundo Monday through Friday and Sundays at 7:00 PM ET / 6:00 PM CT, or stream it via Peacock and digital platforms. The excitement leading to the finale reflects the competitors’ engaging dynamics and the emotional investments of the audience, showcasing the unpredictability that reality television offers.
