La Caramelo Out After World Cup Controversy | El Paso News
Description
Alejandra Jaramillo, aka “La Caramelo,” was abruptly fired from Univision’s “Siéntese quien pueda” after posting a controversial “bye bye” message celebrating England’s World Cup win over Mexico — complete with a sarcastic nod to English roots in Ecuador’s Esmeraldas. The backlash erupted instantly online, sparking calls for a Univision boycott and her immediate removal. The network confirmed her exit live on air, honoring her four-year tenure. Jaramillo later apologized for her insensitive remarks, acknowledging the hurt caused. She’s now replaced permanently by Jessica Rodríguez — a stark reminder of how swiftly public opinion can dismantle careers in today’s hyper-connected media landscape.
