The second edition of the Ídolo Awards has brought together at the Gran Teatro de Príncipe Pío in Madrid numerous familiar faces and others, more generational. Los Ídolo, an initiative by the Catalan Aida Domènech, better known by her ‘influencer’ name, Dulceida, started in 2022 to try to honor all the digital content creators who have gained notoriety thanks to social networks, a sector that for many is completely foreign but that has managed to attract the attention, especially of the youngest. ‘Tiktokers’, ‘youtubers’, ‘foodies’ and other ‘influencers’ (how much Anglicism!) They met in the capital for a gala that started with a spectacular red carpet in the vicinity of the central auditorium.

Dulceida herself was in charge of closing the gala and announcing the last winner, thanking everyone present and, above all, “those behind” her work. “I feel surrounded by winners, because you are all fucking cracks,” she said from the stage before announcing the Idol of the Year Award. “This year goes to a person who has dared with all the platforms (…) and he has asked for it in all of them. It goes to a content creator who is the clear example that notoriety is not earned by luckbut it takes effort and dedication even though some say otherwise”, he pointed out, before cheering on the winner, Nil Ojeda, to go on stage.

They did not miss the gala emotional speeches —María Lo, a former MasterChef contestant, who won the Idol award in the Gastronomy category, dedicated it to her father, who left her “passion for cooking” or Laura Escanes, Digital Content Creator of the year, who took advantage of the moment to thank the support in a “slightly difficult” year—nor others loaded with humor: Paco León, winner of the Idol for Best Audiovisual Project thanks to his review of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ —category in which competed with ‘The Route’, by Atresmedia—, joked uniting many of the topics of the speeches of the awards ceremonies —”I’m going to try not to cry”, “I didn’t expect it”, “I haven’t prepared anything”— to end up acknowledging that he was doing “the chorra” because he was “really nervous”. Meanwhile, the winner of the Revelation Idol, Charlie Pee, went on stage to reassure the masses: “Calm down, I don’t even have a whore whose I am.”

For his part, Henar Álvarez, winner of the Idol for Social Conscience, thanked all the people who made “people” who did not fit “into what they wanted” have “a microphone” to raise their voices, in addition to joking acknowledging that they deserved the award for having taught all of Spain “to eat the cunt”. With Lalachus —also nominated in the humor category— and Carolina Iglesias (also known on social networks as Percebes and Grelos) adding a humorous touch, the gala ended with a long list of winners that you can check here:
