SPAIN EUROVISION 2022 - REACTING TO CHANEL 'SLO MO' LIVE AT BENIDORM FEST (FIRST WATCH)

- Hi guys, and welcome back to my channel! If you're new here, my name's Rachel and I'm a huge Eurovision fan. In today's video, I reacted to the live performance of the Spanish entry for ESC 2022, 'SloMo' by Cuban-born singer Chanel. Chanel won the approval of the Spanish at the newly revived Benidorm Fest, beating the likes of Rigoberta Bandini and Tanxugueriras to represent her country.
Chanel's song is in the classic reggaetón style, with spicy lyrics delivered in a strategic mix of both Spanish and English. The musical content of the song is nothing insanely spectacular or avant-garde, with limited chords and some repetitive elements. HOWEVER, it's the artist that makes the song shine. Chanel delivers a cracking live performance, including some world class chroeography that is anything but laboured, which could match up to the likes of Shakira or JLo. Spain should be proud of this entry, showing other countries how the Spanish language can shine on the Eurovision stage, performed by a very capable artist who is both confident and experienced in delivering a quality performance.
Initial Score: 8.5/10

Just to clarify: The Spanish public picked Tanxu (my fave) but the juries picked Chanel. Both amazing entries. You guys have good taste
Si. Las favoritas eran Chanel y Rigoberta. Tchungas quedaron terceras.
Ojalá podamos hacer algo decente en Turin con Chanel. Será la segunda iberoamericana en representarnos, tras la peruana Betty Missiego que brilló en Jerusalén 1979 con ese segundo lugar con Su Canción, así era el titulo.
@ Chanel favorita? No te lo crees ni tú
@@JERRY-qh2zx Es verdad. Que la progresía ha hablado. Y el concurso es tongo porque no ha salido lo que la tolerante y racional mayoría progre quería. Y fachas. Y Franco. Y machismo.
BUT, you are intentionally ignoring that fact that Chanel didnt exactly come last in public vote. either half. WHY ARE NONE OF YOU WHINING PEOPLE ACKNOWLEDGING that she won a cumulative vote. Stop acting like she Lost in any sense, only to be saved by juries.. FFS, ESC itself has countless cases where the televote winner was low in juries [Michal Szpak prime example]. ITS JUST REALITY.
dear Spanish people, we are already obsessed with Chanel. She is a superstar and don’t worry, we’ll vote for her! I was dying for years to get a bop from Spain and ahora nos tenemos ya 🥲 por eso por favor support Chanel all the way. She can be a global phenomenon 💛
have to disagree!
❤️❤️❤️ Matt ❤️❤️❤️ thanks from Spain
Thanks uuuuuu!!!
Actualy she is NOT a superstar. most of the people outside Spain has never heard of her.
@@rinostellmacher5409 right now SHE IS
GRACIAS por reconocer lo que nuestro propio país no es capaz de reconocer, LA TENEMOS QUE APOYAR ENTIENDAN, nos va a representar y lo hace increíble, no la podemos dejar sola
A mi no me gusta el genero -como a cualquier persona no le pueda gustar lo que escucho yo- pero quien ponga en duda el trabajo que hay en la puesta en escena es que es ciego. Hay que apoyarla a tope!
Nadie dice que no lo haga bien, quizás para tu cara me suena lo haga bien, pero no es la artista que quería España, no es ni Tanxugueiras ni Rigoberta, punto queríamos nuestra música no... Un aprendiz de artista... Que efectivamente es una profesional y baila increible, pero queríamos nuestras raíces, no reguetón barato... Es sencillo de entender... Y es lo que votó la gente... Pero ante un proyecto de una discografíca poco se puede hacer, canción mala y ya está... Muy triste....
@@davidgomez8689 opiniones y gustos, los tuyos tan respetables como los de cualquiera. A mi, por ejemplo, aborreciendo el reguetón, las otras dos no me gustan por encima. Hay que respetar las cosas. En voto demoscopico y televoto quedó empatada - empatada! - con Rigoberta, por detrás de Tanxugueiras, si. Pero con el formato de puntuación incluyendo a un jurado lo que sucedió era perfectamente factible. A mi me gustaba la de Varry Brava. ¿La voy a añadir a mis playlist para escucharla en mi día a día? No, me gustaba para llevarla a un concurso con opciones de competir. Igual el voto del jurado ha ido por ahí. En cualquier caso, hay que respetar el resultado, y apoyar a nuestra candidata.
Hablas como si el público la odiara, y el público la puso en un 3° puesto. La canción, que es un mojón, consigue ser una pedazo propuesta gracias a ella, yo esté año voy con el #chanelazo a tope
@@sakisppo3355 tercero no, segundo, hubo dos votos - populares - a parte del jurado, contando ambos quedó empatada con Rigoberda. Pero nos molan las injusticias y las teorias conspiranoicas...
She has worked very hard, she has been running on a treadmill for months with 10 centimeter heels, preparing for the performance both in the dance and in the vocal field. The choreography has been done by Kyle hanagami, one of the greatest choreographers in the world who does the dances for Blackpink, Jennifer López...etc and the costumes have been designed by Carmen Farala, the winner of the Drag Race Spain. Chanel is a queeeeennnn!!!!👑👑👑
The choreography was Jlo level because she had her coreographer, who also has worked with artists like Justin Bieber or Blackpink. Thanks for the video, love from Spain! 😭💖🇪🇸
De hecho también ha trabajado con JLo jajaja es que es muy heavy
Also because she has worked hard...
Foureira copy paste
@@mtx6397Shame on comparisons
@@mtx6397 Yeah also Jlo, Beyonce or Camila Cabello are Foureira copy paste if you want... 😂😂
She is with a smile all the song. She is having fun. She did that the difficult looks easy. Like something normal that anyone can do. She has a hard work to get there! Love Chanel ❤️
It is fun to see that Chanel has the attention she deserves coming from outside Spain. Shame. She nailed it!
Racista y clasista!
@@javiercano2119 lol por que lo llamas racista?
Si nadie dice que no, pero incluso ella dice al principio que sus favoritas eran las Tanxus, como las de la mayoria de España, menos 3 personas, por desgracia sin desearle ningun mal a Chanel, esto probablemente vaya a ser recordado mas por el tongo de Benidorm que por su participación en eurovisión
@@IfiniteGuy habrá usado el traductor, le habrá salido alguna incongruencia y le ha llamado racista así por la cara 😂😂
@@javiercano2119 Y me explicas por qué?
She comes from musical theater that´s why her resistance in her voice and dancing are amazing. She deserved to win and we´re behind her 100%.,
Europe smells like Chanel, Diva
Yes, You're right Emi and She was one of SHAKIRA'S backing dancers
This does not deserve to win anything :-)
She has been singing the song while running on the treadmill daily for the last month and a half. She has said this multiple times in interviews this week. That's why she's not out of her breath.
Many thanks for your video! We love her!
I am Spanish and proud that a Cuban represents my country in Europe 👍 🇪🇸 🇨🇺
She is half cuban and half Spanish. Her mother is Cuban and her father Catalán (Spanish) She has lived in Spain since she was 4 years old. Therefore, she is more Spanish than anything else.
I'm Spanish and hearing your opinion has made me cry
Thanks for ur reaction! Chanel is getting a lot of hate.. she doesn’t deserve it! we love her!
these morons are acting as if they were promised that only the public vote would count or something.. THEY KNEW DAMN WELL how the situation would work.
@@ZakhadWOW Sadly you are right. I had a feeling it would pan out this way given the percentage distributions of the voting. I think it is frustration at the jury cynically taking full advantage of the system and misguided toward Chanel herself. I do think that it is legitimate to question the voting arrangement even though we knew what we were getting into.
Yo no la odio.....pero a mi su cancion me parece que es mas de lo mismo ...y ademas tiene mas del 35% de ingles en su cancion cosa que segun las normas del concurso no se podia
Congratulation for Chanel, but her song is appropriate for a Latin Grammy award, not for Eurovision. Tanxugueiras was the perfect option for that. The Spanish public picked up Tanxugueiras by giving the maximum qualification (60 points) but the jury (without any reason) refused them by giving barely 30 points. Which, it's very fishy. On the other hand, one of the 5 jury members has some relationship to Chanel. Which makes it even more fishy. Anyways, Tanxugueiras has a good musical CV, and will make more and more excellent spectacles ( much better than Chanel, under my POV 🙂 ) Regards
@@anamfiuzaloprz1047 esa norma tiene que ser más falsa, literalmente hay muchos países que mandan sus canciones 100% en inglés, y no son de habla inglesa ese país.
She wasn't my favorite, but she WON and we must support her. It's an incredible performance
100% agreed with you, this is the winning one! "SLAIN" 12 POINTS!
Spain is back 😻😻
Esta chica entrenaba todos los días encima de la cinta de correr con tacones mientras cantaba la canción... Bravo Chanel, en el televoto fue tercera por lo que los españoles también la queremos!!! Eurovisión huele a Chanel!!!!
Chanel is fire on stage 🔥 cant wait to see her on Turin’s stage 🥰
Her outfits were done by Drag Race Spain's winner Carmen Farala, who's a self taught seamstress and extremely talented.
and se did the outfits in 2 days
Self-teaching is a myth. Nobody is self taught, we always learn from previous knowledge and people around us, whether is directly or indirectly.
@@m.x."Self taught" usually means that a person didn't recieve formal education or classes on a subject. Self-teaching is possible but very limited, mostly for simple tasks.
@@m.x. this added nothing to the conversation
Gracias por tan buena valoración a la actuación de Chanel. Es tremendamente buena. Una artista consolidada y ha trabajado muy duro para esta actuación . Yo la apoyo y estoy segura que tendrá mucha más puntuación que otros años. Sólo una cosa añado : Pastora Soler es una grandísima vocalista, su actuación en el festival de Eurovisión fué buenísima, pero creo que los demás países no supieron valorarla como merecía. Esperemos que este año con Chanel vaya mucho mejor. Gracias!
Soy española y apoyo a todos nuestros artistas, pero la estrella 🌟 sin duda es CHANNEL y vuelvo a decir soy Española pero no todos estamos con las representantes de Galicia , hermosa ciudad pero esto no se trata de regiones ni nacionalidades simplemente me gusta el azúcar que tiene Channel es una CHANNELAZO de pata negra 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
Chanel is AMAZING!! ❤️❤️❤️
So proud of her!! 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸
THANK YOU SO MUCH! You has described all my feelings with Chanel Performance PERFECTLY! I wish this year we’ll achive at least the top 5! Love from Spain 🇪🇸
Amen to everything you just said! So happy for Spain.
Thanks for the support. I was rooting for Tanxu but Chanel will do awesome
as you're from the UK, I want to tell something: the UK deserves a decent national selection similar to Benidorm Fest or post-2020 UMK. the BBC needs to get up. a collaboration with a famous record label is not enough.
The problem is that the U.K. doesn’t take Eurovision seriosly. In fact in U.K. it is almost considered a comical kitsch camp event. To participate in Eurovision is considered career suicide. For what it is worth perhaps the U.K. have a healthy sense of perspective when it comes to Eurovision. The only thing that bemuses me is when some U.K. viewers complain about negative bias against the U.K. when it comes to voting when we send incredibly poor entries.
@@_FsEk even in Spain some people think the same. but the new delegation tries to turn that around, and it pays off. there should be a change in the UK and Germany, tho, mainly from the delegation team.
@@a.m.rifkia.3rd493 I believe there was a step up in the quality of the Spanish selection this year so a good effort on behalf of the delegation. I expect Germany to step up too, but as long as the BBC is involved then it is difficult to see the U.K. follow suit. The truth is that Eurovision receives good viewing figures so there is no incentive for improving the quality of the national entry. A good return for minimal effort. There is a small hardcore group of Euro fans that are frustrated by it all. Most people aren’t that bothered and enjoy viewing the freak element of Eurovision. They enjoy the crazy entries more than the serious ones and that is the way they view the contest. They even come up with drinking games where everyone is allocated an entry and whenever your entry gets 12 points you have to down a drink. It’s not to be taken seriously.
Exactly, the UK needs to dare more.. not sure if that's a good sentence. Get all your pub singers to participate in a national contest or something, omg.
@@_FsEk the Spanish star 🌟 singers think the same about eurovision. No famous singer wants to take that risk. In Spain eurivision is almost nothing for the common people just for the euro fans. Rtve had to misx the selection with talent shows to create an interest the last years.
Absolutely thankful for your comments from Spain.
Chanel this year the triumph of Eurovision is for you, my best wishes.
La mejor Chanel. Para Representar a España. Tiene fuerza y poderío 👸🏻 la canción y te invita a bailar es una profesional como la copa de un pino Grande Artista y Cantante.mis 12 puntos para ella 🥂🍀🙏🏻💓😍
Hi I'm from the UK and a eurovision fan .I think it's one of the most watched Eurovisions for a long while .
Chanels performance I think its beyond amazing and I think that she is going to blow up all over the world to be honest allso her dance team with her are allso superb .
Me and my sister where on the phone messaging each other because we could not believe her performance.
Thanks for your reaction.
Rewatching this after our 3rd place :). Her performance was already almost perfect at BenidormFest. I remember being worried about the changes they could introduce and, in the end, those little changes, added to what we had previously seen, resulted in a perfect performance at Eurovision. I had never been this proud about an entry from my country (along with "Quédate conmigo") ❤
Es espectacular Chanel me encanta España 🇪🇸
I love your reaction, Chanel is a showgirl, we love her from Mexico, she is very complete, very professional, very strong, if it is something seen before, you have to give it a chance. Greetings
Todas las reacciones fuera de españa son maravillosas como la tuya Gracias 💚💚
También para el resto de participantes. Todos tenían sus favoritos. En fin, suerte y que le vaya bien, a mí me parece una canción de los 40 más.
Fuera de España no han leido la letra, que suerte para España
@@saraharo5002 No es una canción de los 40 más. Es fascismo y machismo en vena. Las otras eran superiores. De hecho, seguro que han votado los malvados hombres blancos heterosexuales, que malos son.
@@malal6891 hahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahshahhshahahahahshshshshshhshshshshshshsh
Machismo y fascismo... ok
@@malal6891 Jajajajajajajajajajajajajajajjajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajajjajajajaja Ya enserio ¿ Es un chiste ?
Thank You so much for your reaction, almost made me cry. Viva Chanel!❤️
Muchas gracias por tu reacción ❤ Chanel es una diosa que nos va a llevar al cielo.
Thanks for this video. I'm really happy she's getting credit from outside of Spain. And Even though I don't fancy latin pop, I can only say "Ole Chanel", 'cause that performance is breathtaking. I also hope she gets support from latinamerican people living in Europe, cause they also get represented by this Spanish entry. La música latina is being a big influence in modern pop music, and Eurovision is an example of it. Now it's the turn of Spain to show up.
Amazing Talent & Art coming from Spain this year.
Well done Spain!
They have set the Bar High!
Chanel is amazing ! Congrats to Spain!
Channel is a powerhouse ❤️
She's use to worked in musicals such as Mamma Mia, The Bodyguard, Flashdance and others, so she's quite experience dancing and singing at the same time in live performances.
GO FOR IT SPAIN!!!!
OMG! Your reaction and analysis it's really out of this world. So happy to know you and your channel.
Totally agree with you, this performance it's mind blowing, so well conceived and executed. This girl is austounding, her dancing, singing and happiness up the stage is top level.
I'm from Spain but i didn't knew Chanel before today, and I'm so proud of her. Finally we have a good show to bring to Eurovision. It feels so Pro. 👍🏼👍🏼
The last years Spain chose very good artists with a very bad songs, so lame.
This year us the first time i feel proud to be spaniard.
Agree with you that the song is really basic and has no charm or that something else that makes it special, but the combination is fucking good.
Your video is the best reaction i have seen, and you are doing such a good analysis... I enjoyed a lot.
Count me in as a subscriber. Thanks ☺️🥰💪🏼🤟🏼
Everybody is loving her performance except her own country. I really want her to be in the top 10 or even top 5
I honestly hate this song!
@@freemangriffin4953 I honesty love Chanel performance! haaa haa
Es fantástica y alegra en estos duros momentos de pandemia y ahora guerra, necesitamos alegría y buen ritmo💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
Spain is probably the only country I root for every year (being a huge fan of the language and all), and this, honestly, is the first time that I'm actually thinking they might do well in the voting.
This isn't my type of music, but it's so catchy and it fits ESC perfectly.
Vamos España! Suerte!
I agree with you. Great performance!
La mejor actuación de toda Eurovisión de todos los tiempos! Alucinante!
Luv it ur reaction!! We’re SO proud this year. A stunning contestant, an amazing festival… that’s the way!
FLASHDANCE in EUROVISIÓN 😍🇺🇲🎤🇮🇹🇪🇸🏅
Thanks for appreciate the hard job of Chanel. I agree she made the song better with this performance. No doubts she will work so hard this 4 months to bring something more perfect and amazing !
Perfect choice!!
Totalmente de acuerdo.. Gracias por tu reacción.. The winner spain... 😍Increíble
Thnx for appreciate the hard work behind this perfomance. She's a artist. Regards from Spain.
I enjoyed this video a lot. Looking at your face, made me remember what I felt first time I saw Chanel in that stage. I really think we in Spain got a unique opportunity to paint Turin in red.
Spain 🏆🥇 Chanel 👑👍😃
Lots of thanks for your kind words! I think Chanel deserves that, it looks that she worked so hard.
Greetings from Spain!!
I agree with you in every of your points..! Nice to find you here in youtube! ;)
Chanel is a very complete artist, she is a singer, dancer and actress. He has worked in several very successful musicals, and also in TV series. I think his acting was perfect
Spain 12 points 👏👏👏👏 Chanel 🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦🇪🇦 Ganadora 💪
Una maravilla para todos los sentidos , Chanel espectacular
Chanel es todo talento y diferente la canción ganadora 🇪🇸👏
🔥Chanel🔥

Me encanta 🎊🎊
Don't worry about the lights,we just want your reaction, haha. This is soooo good! My vote she got.
She has also worked with Shakira as a background dancer!!!
which would mean something if it were a dance contest, but it isn't.
Lots of love and appreciation from Spain for this amazing reaction of yours. ✨✨
Spain you guys are awesome,Chanel is awesome!12 points from Azerbaijan.
The public voted Tanxugueirias, the jury votes Chanel. But all of them have done a good job
Viva Chanel !!
She is amazing and we have to support her!!! We’ll do great this year!! Really looking forward to the Festival, as usual, but this year even more!!!
Exactly 💯😊 thank you🤗
For those who hates Chanel ... stop BULLYING a woman. This kind of hate provokes suicides!!!! Please Europe, Chanel needs your support as some spanish people are behaving so cruel with her. Even she received threats of being killed 😔 STOP BULLYING against a woman! 🇪🇦
Best analysis about Chanel I've heard so far, thanks. | El mejor análisis sobre Chanel que he oído hasta hoy, gracias.
Thanks for support Chanel !!
A GLOBAL BIG STAR DIVA BORN. CHANEL, she, our anazing Spanish/Cuban Chanel is MARVELOUS ARTIST, GREAT PERSON INSIDE, BIG HEART, TERRIBLE HARD WORKER UNCOMPARABLE AND AMAZING DANGER.
SHE IS A BIG STAR!! 💘
Top 10!!!
Great pro review. Unbiased and realistic
Love your reaction. Thank you!
I think you should react to the full final show, it was really amazing. Believe me. Fun to watch.
una diva ,Europa a sus pies
She is amazing! Top 5.
love your feedback! I agree with you!!! :) hugs from Argentina!!!
thanks for this reaction, chanel deserves all the support after the hate she is receiving
She worked in many musicals, from 16 years old worked very hard,now had 30 years.
Chanel's performance is spectacular and She Will Be a possible winner of esc 2022..However i consider Also the Italian Song brividi because of their voices, the poetry,and quality of instruments..
Same here - I agree with you
Winner alert
Chanel was born in Cuba and moved to Spain when she was 4!, sooo, she is indeed giving latina vibes :D
I agree with you 100%.👏👏👏👏👏❤
You are absolutely on point. The quality of the acts at Benidorm fest was out of this world. Well done, Spain.
That's a show!!
As a Spanish most of us prefered Rigoberta Bandini or Taxungueiras, but I have to recognize that the lyrics (the real reason why we love them) wouldn't really reach the non Spanish speakers and also this girl is really energetic and can do literally everything, leaving aside that it's reggaeton and it's a genre I don't really fancy, BUT it's catchy, and that's the thing they need to complete the entire "pack".
You are a sweetheart, btw! Sendimg you a big hug from Spain!🤗❤️
Great analysis. Bravo 👏
I think we are in front of a new STAR, she is a goddess 👑
Thanks so much for your support. I appreciate so much!!! PEACE FROM 🇪🇸
3 months late, but loved your reaction! And your spanish pronunciaton is good :)
Thanks for your reaction!!! Yes, she had work really hard. And she deserve it. Now she's reciving a lot of hate, and it's a difficult moment
This is a bomb on stage
I appreciate your comparisons and insights! Fresh perspectives. I have subscribed! =)
Thank you for your comments! Chanel is getting a lot pf hate from Spain, but from what I see, her work is so appreciated. She can sing, she can dance…and she can do it all at the same time so naturally! She is really talented and I hope this year we reach the top 5!!!!!! Go Chanel!!!!!
Your previous video was so interesting (with very substantial and smart comments)! That's why I'm here again to watch this and many others from now on. As you already heard the other songs and liked Tanxugueiras, I'd have loved to see your reaction to the other performances. Slomo is nothing complex at all, but what I liked the most about this proposal was Chanel's har work and enthusiasm for going to the festival. This work was reflected in his performance, which was ready to go to Eurovision and which was at the first semifinal more perfect and suitable than others like Terra's. And that gave her many points. I'd have liked to see what would have happenned with Tanxugueiras, Rayden or Rigoberta, but I am very happy for Chanel and for this Benidorm fest! I was getting emotional at the end of the video, I hope to have the same illusion for the years to come. There are many people in Spain who I think are being very critical of the Benidorm fest at the end, but for me it has been a big step. Best from Spain!! ❤🇪🇦
I love Chanel😍😍😍😍😍😍
Viva España 🇪🇦👌🏼🤩
