That Telecinco is going like a chicken without a head is something that we have been counting for months. The latest invention to try to regain the lost audience is ‘For life’, the cañí version of ‘The Bachelorette’ (which in turn is the spin-off of ‘The Bachelor’). The operation of the program can not be more Mediaset: twenty boys want to make a single woman fall in love, who must eliminate them one by one until she is left with the chosen one, believe in love, do four or five sets, a polygraph, break live, you know, as usual. The chosen one in this case is a certain Sheila Martori, who defines herself as a normal girl. Spoilers: no.
Martori greeting you
The girl who has on her shoulders the obligation to raise a Telecinco sunk in the misery of the audiences (without pressure, eh?) He is 26 years old and, priori, he has the most typical Tinder profile you can imagine.. In love with sports, a fan of playing golf, traveler, SUV, architect, that is. On her Instagram, she puts phrases from ‘Batman Begins’, reflections like “Evolve so much that they have to meet you again” and photos of wines in Santa Cruz de Tenerife. A bit like Bo Burnham’s ‘White woman’s Instagram’ had become a person.
But the friend hides several secrets. The first, her work: She is an architect and, in fact, she is now doing a master’s degree in interior design. In her free time, she prepares the launch of her own line of jewelry. You know, a normal girl. a normal girl who participated in a beauty contest and was elected “Lady of Girona” in 2015. Everything is very normal, chill, calm.
Apparently, Sheila knows exactly what he wants: another boring Tinder profile. An ambitious man, educated, tall, dark-haired, who makes her laugh and is thoughtful, a mix between Álex González and Maxi Iglesias. Or, what is the same, the macaroni and tomato of relationships, which added to the tone of the program, which already announces itself to be absolutely antagonistic to that of ‘Who wants to marry my son?’ or ‘A prince for Corina’, gives us as a result a reality show that, a priori, is already outdated.
Turkish entertainment novel
Before going to the program, Sheila had two relationships, but they both disappointed her because she did not feel valued and settled for less than what she wanted. The solution? Being adored by twenty good-looking kids, of course. Of course, Telecinco cannot stop being one at any time and the daughter of Terelu Campos has already said that one of her suitors was the boyfriend of a friend of hers. So, like who doesn’t want the thing. The light salseíllo without calories or interest.
We know something else about Sheila from the videos that have been uploaded on Telecinco: has ever been unfaithful, has said “I love you” without meaning it and he has lied to flirt, but he has not fallen in love at first sight, he has hooked up with a famous person (or so he says) nor has he ever considered his sexual orientationsomething that suits the chain and its absolute hetero fantasy reality shows very well.
Sheila will have ten episodes to decide if she falls in love with Posh Blonde Boy or Entrepreneurial Dark-haired Boy. How hard looking at her photos is going to be distinguish between dark-haired guys with beards: If they told me that in Telecinco they have a clone factory, I would absolutely believe it from what I’ve seen.
From Mediaset they announce that “It’s like a Turkish entertainment novel”, showing his absolute inability to make metaphors. We will check it (well, the chain’s captive public) from today at 10:50 p.m., after the daily summary of ‘Nightmare in paradise’. Do you notice this? It is utter laziness.
