The Viña del Mar International Festival is one of the most important musical events in Latin America. The Chilean public has a habit of booing and hissing to reject the presentation of an artist, generally comedians.

The first person affected in the current edition - from February 25 to March 1 - has been the comedian and actress Javiera Contador. The debate, more intense every year, is divided between those who consider that festival attendees should respect the comedian's work and simply remain silent if they do not like the routine.
