No one expected what Alfonso Arús has revealed about Belén Esteban during 'Aruser@s'

The host surprises by reacting live to Belén Esteban's criticism of Telecinco's new programs


This morning, the set of Aruser@s witnessed a completely unexpected moment. Alfonso Arús addressed live the recent statements by Belén Esteban about the shows that replaced Sálvame in the afternoons on Telecinco. Far from avoiding the controversy, the host showed his support for the collaborator, making it clear that he understands her position.

The debate arose when Aruser@s aired a clip in which Belén Esteban took a jab at the formats that took over Sálvame's slot. "They said our show was trash TV, well blessed trash TV, because this trash TV is what people want to watch," the collaborator stated emphatically on Ni que fuéramos.

Belén Esteban's discontent with Telecinco's current programming is not new. Since Sálvame bid farewell in 2023, the collaborator has expressed her displeasure on several occasions with the formats that took over its time slot.

In her appearance on Ni que fuéramos, Esteban didn't hold back in her criticism of TardeAR, Ana Rosa Quintana's show. "They decide to put Ana Rosa Quintana, but I don't like many phrases and indirects they've made," she asserted.

The panelist not only referred to the host but also to the television concept of the new spaces. "You're making family shows that nobody watches," she stated, highlighting her frustration with the network's new direction.

Alfonso Arús, without hesitation, intervened to analyze the panelist's opinion. Angie Cárdenas, a regular collaborator on Aruser@s, also took part in the discussion and defended Esteban's point of view. Have the shows that replaced Sálvame really worked?

Angie Cárdenas spoke up to support Belén's stance. "I find it insulting when they label the shows as trash TV," she stated. In her opinion, you can't underestimate content that has been consumed by a large audience for years.

The collaborator insisted on the need to respect the audience's taste. "If that television is consumed by an audience, you can't insult the audience," she emphasized, making it clear that shows like Sálvame had a clear purpose: to entertain.

Alfonso Arús followed Cárdenas's line of argument, emphasizing the lack of reply from Telecinco's new offerings. Since Sálvame disappeared from the schedule, the new formats have struggled to consolidate an audience. "They don't understand that there are shows made for people to be entertained," Angie Cárdenas concluded.

The words of Belén Esteban have caused a great stir in the television world. Her criticism of Telecinco's new shows has been supported by Alfonso Arús and his team on Aruser@s. Will this mark a turning point in current television?
