Cuban influencer Pollito Tropical made a splashy entrance into Planeta Alofoke with a bold statement: "I'm here to stay," he declared as he stepped into the reality show, making headlines with his arrival.
His timing was no coincidence. Pollito arrived shortly after his close friend and "sister," Gino Montalvo, had a heated confrontation with contestants Michael Flores and Jiménez, sparking a wave of online solidarity under the hashtag #TeamGino.
"My sister @gino__montalvo_el_rey_enorme is no longer alone," read the caption of his entrance post.
Pollito brought a defiant attitude and a direct message for those uneasy with his presence: "If my presence bothers you, the door is wide open."
The controversy surrounding Gino didn't stop there. On Monday, show host Santiago Matías (Alofoke) publicly questioned Gino's top ranking, arguing it was undeserved due to a lack of original content, which ignited another wave of support for the Cuban.
A Reunion with Past Rivals
Pollito's entry added another explosive element: the reunion with La Fruta and Michael Flores, with whom he had previously lived in La Casa de Alofoke 2 in late 2025.
La Fruta had won that edition, taking home four million Dominican pesos and a Ferrari Purosangue. Michael Flores finished in third and was deemed the contestant with the most impactful social media presence. Pollito had exited the competition in November 2025 due to mental health reasons, only to return a week later.
Their reunion in Planeta Alofoke brings a shared history to the show, promising dynamics that are bound to go viral.
Strengthening the Cuban Alliance
In a laid-back video posted on Instagram Friday, Pollito appeared alongside Gino, captioning it: "@gino__montalvo_el_rey_enorme, we sisters understand each other," solidifying their Cuban alliance within the house.
The reaction on social media was swift: a mix of surprise, support, and anticipation filled the comments, with thousands of followers cheering the Cuban bloc's reinforcement in the competition.
Planeta Alofoke is a 55-day reality show broadcasted 24/7 on YouTube, with a grand prize of $250,000, starting on April 12, 2026. With Pollito's presence, the dynamics of the game are shifting: he arrives with allies, a backstory, and a clear mission to support Gino until the end.
