The moment they shared the most with their followers, as expected at the party, was the dance. Carolina Plaza and Adrián Avilés activated the guests when the DJ played old-school reggaeton (from the early 2000s), and fans of their program gathered in a large circle to “twerk” with their idols. Viviana Salame and Gigi Mieles joined the dance crowd doing their thing, with their co-workers and friends.

“Yes, it’s a dream job,” commented Gigi at one point for this media. “Other than that, I don’t feel like it’s work, on the contrary. I like going to the office, having that space with all the kids so I can record, not only with the group of panelists, but also with the ‘locks’ (guys from the technical team), with Jorge Gushmer, with Andrés, with Amir Abredrab, with everyone in the office. It is a blessing to work with them because there are a lot of good vibes, there is a lot of camaraderie, love, empathy and you have a boss who is the nicest, sweetest and most empathetic person in the world. So I think I’m working in my dream place, especially with my friends and it doesn’t feel like work.”
