Two days to go until the big premiere of the second season of MasterChef Celebrity Mexico and the famous participants are already preparing the last details to delight the chefs with their best dishes in the most famous kitchen in the country. For that reason, prior to the broadcast of the first chapter next Sunday, August 21, Karla Sofía Gascón told us what her goal is in the competition and confessed how her relationship with her teammates is.

Notably excited about this new facet in her life, the Spanish interpreter confessed that her main goal in the reality show is: “I want to become the first trans woman to win MasterChef worldwide, I think that none has won it and it would be a pride and a wonder”. And it is that for her, as part of the LGBT + community, it is very important that spaces like television respect all people and make them participate in their programs without caring about anything other than her talent.

My mission as Karla that I am is that they leave us alone and that they treat us as the people we are because we all deserve the same respect in this world.

the actress of We the Noble, Rebel, Wild Heart and Full of Love He also commented that these first days in reality have been a bit complicated because I don’t know much of Mexican gastronomyespecially chili peppers, elements that are usually very present in the challenges proposed by chefs Betty and José Ramón.

“I would like them to have everything from my town [Madrid]but they have everything full of chili and things that I don’t even know what they are called, they have a thousand chilies […] that I really don’t know what they are used for… the names of your dishes, so in that aspect what I am going to try to do is a fusion of everything that is the food of the Iberian Peninsula with the Mexican food that I know“, said.

With this, Karla Sofía Gascón announced that her dishes will be a mix between her Spanish roots and the flavors she has discovered during her stay in Mexico.

Regarding his coexistence with his companions, he confessed that he gets along very well with some, including Arturo López Gavito, with whom he even got to talk outside the forum. However, there are also participants with whom he has not built a bond.

“With some I get along super, super well, we are like a family, as if that were a place where we record, we go to see our friends, and obviously I don’t get along so well with others either and I don’t feel like seeing them much either, but with the ones I get along with it’s a laugh all the time”, he mentioned.

It is the best MasterChef that has been done here in all seasons […] My colleagues scare me a lot and I hope to give it to them too in the kitchen.

Finally, Karla Sofía hinted that her biggest fear in reality is to be eliminated during the first week, so from now on she is thinking of some strategies to stay in a competition that, as she said, will be very entertaining due to all the surprises that will be they have prepared.

“I think they are going to have a lot of fun with me and with all my colleagues with all the things and surprises that we have prepared for them. […] As long as I don’t get expelled the first time and spend the embarrassment of being expelled the first week, I think we’re doing very well. […] I think I’m going to go one by one, taking them out of the way, I don’t know if I’m going to pour vinegar on them, I don’t know if I’m going to trip them so that the dishes fall off, “he said.
