Gabriela Gianatassio Eliminated from Gran Hermano: A Turning Point in the Competition
In a dramatic turn of events on Gran Hermano (Telefe), Gabriela Gianatassio was eliminated from the reality show on May 11, receiving only 2.3% of the positive votes from the public. This marked a pivotal moment as the competition approaches its grand finale in just over a month. Gabriela faced off against Lucía Patrone in a tense showdown that ultimately led to a significant shift in dynamics within the house.
The Elimination Night
Host Santiago del Moro unveiled the envelopes containing the votes—silver, orange, and the dreaded red. This suspenseful routine had the housemates on edge as they awaited their fates. As the names were gradually announced, it became clear that Gabriela was in hot water. The final envelope revealed that Gabriela garnered only 3.5% of the votes, while Lucía, her direct competitor, took home a mere 2.3%. This disheartening outcome indicated that Gabriela’s appeal to the audience had waned.
Gabriela’s Journey and Impact
Gabriela had been one of the few international contestants in the show, having moved to Argentina years prior. She was a key member of the "Bad Bitch" alliance, along with fellow contestants Catalina Gorostidi and Chiara Mancuso, both of whom were eliminated in earlier rounds. Their alliance had represented a strong feminist stance within the competition, which added an intriguing layer to the ongoing narrative.
In her farewell, Gabriela expressed heartfelt gratitude to Argentina, declaring her love for the country and its people. Her departure not only marked her exit but also the end of a formidable alliance that had once disrupted the traditional power structures in the house.
Lucía Patrone: The Rising Contender
On the flip side, Lucía Patrone emerged victorious, much to the delight of her supporters. She strategically positioned herself alongside powerful players such as Santiago “Tato” Algorta and Luz Tito, forming an alliance known as “El Tridente.” This group’s celebration following Gabriela’s elimination signifies a crucial shift in control within the house.
Fractures and Alliances in the House
Notably, the lead-up to the elimination highlighted deeper tensions among the contestants. During the nomination dinner, which took place the previous Saturday, players openly revealed their desired targets. Gabriela expressed her struggles with the nomination process and suggested Tato as a potential eliminator.
However, three participants—Lucía, Luz, and Lourdes—found her to be the most pressing threat and voted against her. The divisions within the house became painfully visible as alliances shifted and rivalries sharpened.
Meanwhile, other contestants like Ulises Apóstolo and Sandra faced their own challenges as tensions escalated, with accusations of cheating and shifting loyalties circulating among the players. This atmosphere of intrigue and strategy sets the stage for thrilling developments as the competition draws near to its conclusion.
The Remaining Contestants
With Gabriela’s elimination, the path is now clearer for the remaining competitors. The ten players who will continue their fight for the title are Juan Pablo, Katia, Sandra, Eugenia, Tato, Selva, Luz, Lourdes, Ulises, and Lucía. As the final showdown looms between June 21 and 25, the stakes couldn’t be higher, with tensions and strategies intensifying among the contestants. The competition promises heart-stopping moments as each contestant battles not only for the title but also for their alliances and strategic positions within the game.
