Magaly, a Cuban lady who traveled to Madrid, has just gone viral for her participation in the Spanish program The Revolt, a desire that “struggled” last year and that general blackout in Spain he was prevented from doing so.
During the recording, the charismatic spectator He said that he traveled to the Spanish capital one day before the massive power outage that also affected Portugal and part of France, and he regretted not having been able to see the live broadcast on that occasion, despite having arranged the ticket in advance.
“Last year, in April, I arrived in Madrid one day before the blackout [general en España]”, and unfortunately, because of what happened… I had fought for that ticket to come see you,” Magaly confessed to presenter David Broncano, who declared her “our biggest fan of Cuba and the world.”
Reclining in a bathtub, in an iconic segment within The Revolt that gives prominence to an interesting story from the public, Magaly recalled the “sadness and frustration” that not having been able to attend in 2025 caused her, because “I don’t miss one of your programs,” she explained to the presenter.
“He brought the blackouts from Cuba”
Broncano He joked about the coincidence that Magaly arrived from Cuba, mired in the worst energy crisis in decades, and found a blackout in Spain.
“He brought the blackouts,” David said to laughter and applause from the audience. In the exchange, Magaly explained that in Cuba she follows the Spanish Television show “wherever she can” and that, if there is a lack of electricity on one side, she looks for another way to watch it.
Now, back in Madrid, where she arrived this week, her daughter surprised her with the entrance ticket to the program.
“My daughter didn’t tell me anything. She made the arrangements, she got the ticket for today, and last night, when we arrived from Cuba again, she told me that she had a ticket. She told me this by surprise, it almost gave me a heart attack,” he said.
Asked by Broncano about the current situation in Cuba, Magaly acknowledged that, although the outlook is “difficult,” it is now going through a critical moment.
“Dangerous and hard” moment
“Cuba is in an extremely dangerous and especially difficult moment, due to the oil problem and the threats from the Trump Government,” said the Cuban, referring to the oil fenceor what Washington is currently undertaking on the island.
On the subject, Broncano considers that it is a tightening of the screws by the US Administration, which ends up “as many times by squeezing the people of Cuba” and showed solidarity with them.
With Broncano as helmsman, La Revuelta is an entertainment and interview program on Spanish television focused on relaxed conversations with public figures, artists and relevant people.
The format combines humor, improvisation and audience participation, with segments that break the classic structure of the talk shows and they prioritize spontaneous exchange.
The space is characterized by an irreverent and close tone, in which the guests, and sometimes spectators, interact directly with the presenter. Fragments of its broadcasts tend to circulate widely on social networks, which has turned the program into a frequent platform for viral moments and a recent benchmark for television humor in Spain.
