Controversies

Some controversies that surfaced during the season.

• Puerto Rican Lizmarie Goldilla was criticized by fellow contestant Marissa Mesa for not wanting to rehearse during the week. She was threatened by the judges and the next week, the audience voted her out.
• Despite favorable reviews by judges during the course of the show, Héctor Arreguin forgot the lyrics to his song on March 10. This has been a reason for an automatic threatening. The next week, the audience voted him out.
• Contestant Edgar Alberto Pérez heavily criticized the judges decision to complain about his weight arguing that this was a singing contest, and not a beauty pageant. He was very vocal about it, while the judges replied that their critics were recommendations to him as an artist and because of his health. However, upon a threatening from the judges from a poor performance, the audience then voted him out.
• Contestants Erica Gonzaba and Juan Vélez started a relationship during the show. They even performed the song "Devuélveme la Vida" from Antonio Orozco together, and closed it with a kiss garnering much applause from the audience. However, in September 2007, they announced they had ended their relationship amicably. Gonzaba even appeared in the video for Juan's song "Buscando tu Sombra".
