Following Marcelo Polino's harsh remarks about Lali Espósito's behavior on the set of the biographical series 'Moria', the iconic diva Moria Casán has publicly backed the singer with a warm 'Loviu gladiadora' on social media. Meanwhile, Lali denied Polino's claims, calling them lies. Discover the details of this Argentine showbiz controversy.

Moria Casán, Lali Espósito, and Marcelo Polino: A Showbiz Storm

In Argentina, the entertainment world is buzzing over a new controversy involving three big names: Moria Casán, the legendary diva; Lali Espósito, a beloved pop star; and Marcelo Polino, a well-known journalist. The drama unfolded around the premiere of Moria, a Netflix biographical series about Casán's life, which debuted on August 14. At the launch event, held at the Lola Membrives Theater, Lali Espósito was notably absent, sparking rumors of a rift. Polino, who is temporarily hosting Casán's TV show La mañana con Moria while she takes a break, fueled the fire by making harsh statements about Lali.

Polino's Accusations

During his program, Polino claimed that in the final episode of the series, a group of friends gathered, but Lali stayed in another room. He said: 'Lali Espósito did not want to join us'. He also recalled a decade-long feud, calling Lali his 'godchild of the fandom' until she 'got on a high horse'. He mentioned an incident at La Voz Argentina where Lali allegedly never gave him time. He even said that Moria once attended Lali's show but didn't greet her backstage, just left flowers.

Lali's Quick Denial

In response, Lali Espósito denied everything through journalist Ángel de Brito, accusing Polino of 'lying with bad intentions'.

Moria's Powerful 'Loviu Gladiadora'

Instead of adding to the conflict, Moria Casán shared a backstage video on her social media where Lali expresses admiration for her: 'I am a huge fan of her phrases. I got to know her better recently. She is an icon for everyone'. Moria captioned it with a simple but strong 'Loviu gladiadora', showing there is no bad blood between them. She had previously downplayed Lali's absence, explaining that the event was only for her inner circle.

This gesture has been seen as a clear sign of support for Lali, countering Polino's claims.

The Political Backstory

To understand the tension between Polino and Lali, one must look at politics. After Argentina's primary elections (PASO) in 2023, Lali posted a tweet against the election results. Polino criticized her, saying: 'People are voting, and saying that will obviously get you attacked'. He held her responsible for the conflict with the government.

Despite the controversy, the series Moria is a hit on Netflix. However, more drama emerged: the family of Luis Vadalá, Casán's ex-husband who passed away in 2023, announced they will file a lawsuit against the production for how he was portrayed.
