Key details
The latest episode of MasterChef Celebridades, aired on December 2, featured an intense team challenge that split the contestants into two groups tasked with preparing pizzas and a ceviche dish paired with wine to impress notable personalities from the eSports community. The two teams, Blue and Red, included well-known celebrities such as Luciano Szafir, John Drops, Márcia Goldschmidt, Maurren Maggi, and Valesca Popozuda on Team Blue, while Team Red featured Gilmelândia, Tiago Piquilo, Dodô, Julianne Trevisol, and Rachel Sheherazade.
Guided by experienced pizzaiolos, each team had to craft three types of pizzas—including at least one vegetarian option—to serve twelve eSports influencers. Adding complexity, renowned chef Helena Rizzo provided instruction on preparing ceviche, which contestants had to pair effectively with wine or sparkling wine.
The competitive atmosphere was further heightened by consequences: the winning team earned immunity for a full week, granting them safety in the ongoing contest, while the losing team faced an elimination challenge where participants could strategize by gaining extra time or reducing opponents' time. This high-stakes environment culminated in the elimination of actor Leonardo Miggiorin, who was sent home after judges criticized his dish, spinach fritters with honey and paprika mayonnaise, as dry and overly salty. Miggiorin expressed his disappointment, clarifying he gave his best effort and felt no regret.
