Natalia Palacios brings together María Pombo and Javi Hoyos in the first in-person casting of her reality 'Perfectos desconoci2'

The new reality show promoted by Natalia Palacios, Perfectos desconoci2, has kicked off with its first in-person casting in Madrid, and it has done so with a surprise that has not gone unnoticed on social media: the presence of María Pombo and Javi Hoyos as special guests at the start of the project.

The reality show starts from a clear premise: to choose 20 candidates in Spain, of whom only two will be the “perfect strangers” who will travel to New York to live a television experience focused on love, dating, and cohabitation. The process has started with an online casting on TikTok, where aspirants had to present themselves in video and convince the organization that they deserve an opportunity. Let's remember that this project is framed as a kind of “second version” of the influencer's own personal story, who three years ago lived a similar experience in New York alongside the influencer Carlos García (@Carliyoelnervio), with whom she ended up marrying last September 2025.

In the in-person casting phase held in Madrid, Natalia Palacios was accompanied by the creators and well-known profiles of Javi Hoyos and María Pombo, who participate as support in the selection of candidates. The format will continue with speed dates among the selected candidates, decisive meetings, and a final phase in which the public will have the last word to choose the winning couple for the trip to New York. This Saturday, the second phase of the casting will take place in Sevilla. 

The reality show will be published on Natalia Palacios' YouTube channel, where this Sunday the first casting program in Madrid can be seen, thus marking the official start of the adventure.
