Cuban presenter Raúl de Molina, known for his charisma and humor on the Univision program “El Gordo y la Flaca,” shocked viewers on Tuesday, March 19. During a live broadcast, Raúl displayed his annoyance with the production team after they interrupted him while he was trying to share a personal family moment.
His co-host, Lili Estefan, affectionately referred to him as “Rauli,” witnessed his outburst as he expressed his frustration at being cut off by the production team in favor of a report. Raúl vented his anger live on air, criticizing the lack of respect shown towards him and his co-host.
“I don’t understand the lack of respect they let you do here. They take me off the air while I’m talking… It seems sad to me,” Raúl exclaimed, clearly upset by the interruptions. He went on to express his disappointment with the show’s current direction, claiming that the focus on creating 20 stories each day has stifled the natural interaction between him and Lili that has defined the program for over 25 years.
The incident has sparked a wave of support from fans and netizens, who view Raúl’s reaction as a defense of the entertainment that he and Lili bring to Hispanic television every day. The outburst has reignited discussions about the dynamics behind the scenes at “El Gordo y la Flaca” and the impact on the hosts’ ability to connect with their audience.
As the controversy continues to unfold, viewers are eager to see how Raúl and the production team will address the issues raised during this tense moment on live television.
