Spanish Star Academy end

"Operacion triunfo" (a.k.a. "Star Academy") is a realty show talent contest, in which some young people, by singing cover versions of popular songs try to become international popstars. David Bisbal managed to do this.

Last friday, the show ended with the victory of Lorena. We wish her the best.

However, the celebrity of this edition has been Risto Mejide, a member of the jury, who has gained notoriety by saying what he thinks in a rude manner. He has talked straight not only to participants, but also to other jury members, academy teachers or even the producers of the show.

Some quotes:

• You gave many people the opportunity to go to the fridge while you were singing.
• This was the most boring show in years, whoever decides on this, please no more ballads.
• I do not understand why they dress you as whores and clowns.
• Make two groups of teachers. Group A, consisting of (names here) you learn how to sing, move, etc. Group B, you can ask them to read tarot.
