Paz Padilla returns to Telecinco this Saturday with 'El show de Paz', a new weekend talk show that aims to be a refuge of optimism amid current tensions. The program, airing from 16:00 to 18:00, combines interviews, hidden camera pranks, and emotional stories. Padilla describes it as "a very kind program, where love, humor, joy, surprise, good vibes, and emotions reign" Source: La Vanguardia.
Padilla, who left the network in 2022 after a public fallout on 'Sálvame', says she did not seek this return: "I was focused on my theater, my conferences, my book... and suddenly they called me and offered me this program" Source: El Mundo. She admits she is a different person now: "I do not renounce 'Sálvame' or anything I've done, but I would no longer do that program because I am another Paz" Source: El Español.
The format is inspired by American talk shows like Ellen DeGeneres, a comparison Padilla finds daunting: "It gives me a lot of responsibility and a lot of fear. I am Paz Padilla, a bit crazy, very deep and intense" Source: El Confidencial. She emphasizes the need for positivity: "There is enough tension in politics, football, social media... we need good vibes" Source: La Vanguardia. Regarding ratings, she is relaxed: "If it works, great; if not, I'll thank everyone for the adventure and move on. Nothing is important" Source: La Vanguardia.
Padilla's sister Lola, newly retired, makes her television debut as a collaborator. Lola admits she is "attacked" and nervous: "I have a fear of everything: the lights, interviews... everything" . She joined because "I retired a month ago and had many hours with nothing to do" . The show also features collaborators like Cristina Piaget, Fabiola Martínez, and actor William Levy as the first guest .
“Me da mucha responsabilidad y también mucho miedo. Yo soy Paz Padilla, que la verdad es que estoy un poco loca. Soy muy profunda y muy intensa, como dice mi hija, pero también soy una persona que no tiene sentido del ridículo.”
“Estoy atacada... Bueno, ya parece que estoy más tranquilita porque ya, yo qué sé, ya hemos hecho la rueda de prensa... Es que es la primera rueda de prensa que yo hago.”
“Si crees que ser presentador, ganar dinero y tener un programa te da estabilidad, estás equivocado.”
Padilla insists her return is not about money: "I have a very stable economic life and I am not doing this for money" Source: La Vanguardia. She remains grateful for the opportunity and focused on enjoying the present.
“No reniego de 'Sálvame' ni de nada de lo que he hecho, pero ya no haría ese programa porque soy otra.”
