Although he is not one of the best-known faces to the general public, he is one of the most influential journalists in the world of gossip, especially since he is the director of one of the most widely read and influential magazines in our country .

His career has always been linked to the world of the written press, making only a few small appearances on radio and television. He began as an intern at El Periódico de Catalunya just a few months before graduating in Journalism from the Autonomous University of Barcelona.

In the second most important newspaper in Catalonia, he became section chief , at which point he began to enter the world of pink information thanks to the fact that he had to be in charge of covering the royal family’s summer vacation in the Balearic Islands.

From the Pitiusas Islands he managed to make a name for himself in the social chronicle, which helped him to become the coordinator of the People section of the Catalan newspaper. During that time he experienced the wedding of the current kings of Spain and the entry into prison of Isabel Pantoja , two events that have remained for the memory of readers.

HE WAS SET IN THE UNIVERSE ‘SAVE ME’

The great work of Luis Pliego helped him for RBA editors to notice him to give new impetus to Lecturas magazine , one of the most traditional in our country. During his first year he became assistant editor, but soon became the editor of the publication.

His work has focused on covering the Telecinco universe, especially since the ‘Save Me’ phenomenon and all its collaborators have filled the pages of all publications. With him, Mila Ximénez, Terelu Campos or Jorge Javier Vázquez have become luxury columnists.

The journalist, although very close to the environment of the Telecinco program, the truth is that he has hardly collaborated in some programs that can be counted on the fingers of one hand: ‘Tal qué’, on Antena 3; ‘La noria’ and ‘El gran debate’, on Telecinco and ‘Els matins’, TV3 . His most recent television appearance was on La Mañana de La 1, where he demonstrated the great connection that unites him with Mariló Montero .

In 2022, Luis Pliego was involved in a controversy around an alleged three-way call between Marta Riesco and Rocío Carrasco , in which Antonio David Flores’s girlfriend and Rocío Jurado’s daughter could supposedly have spoken.
