“MasterChef Celebrity” Faces early Shakeup: Giardina Out, Pérez In
Buenos Aires, September 12, 2025 – Just weeks before filming is slated to begin, “MasterChef Celebrity” is already experiencing a cast change. Dancer Momi Giardina, previously announced as a contestant, is expected to leave the competition shortly after its launch, according to reports from LAM and sources within the production.
The shift stems from the terms of Giardina’s contract, which reportedly stipulated a commitment of only one month. As journalist brito angel revealed, “The dancer would have signed her contract for a month of participation only.”
Filling Giardina’s apron will be Selva Pérez, known for her appearance on “Big Brother.” Pérez, currently residing in Uruguay, has already relocated to Buenos Aires to prepare for her entry into the kitchen reality show hosted by Wanda Nara.
The news has surprised fans anticipating Giardina’s participation and now shifts focus to how Pérez will integrate into the competition. This early adjustment underscores the high-stakes surroundings surrounding the program, where maneuvering and replacements occur both on and off camera, promising a dynamic start to the new season of “MasterChef Celebrity.”
