On the night of June 26, 2016,
Natalia Lugo was interviewed by Ángel González for his podcast "Dulce Compañía" (# 049). From the 23:04 mark to about the 30:57 mark, the conversation covered what happened with this film and the aftermath after it was found to be an unauthorized copy of
Admiradora Secreta (1985). During the conversation, she revealed that when she finally saw
Admiradora Secreta (1985) on YouTube a few days after 'Vasos de papel' had been released in theaters, her first reaction was "uncontrollable laughter" (as she said it: "una pavera"), followed by "Is this really where I'm at in life right now". She also compared the experience to "having married the man of her dreams, then finding out he only liked men", and said that when she approached the production team of this film about this situation, they asked her to "keep quiet", and told her not to worry because "most people would not care about it"... and "even if they did, it would blow over in a weekend or so". Ms. Lugo shared her own title for this film: "Vasos de papelón" (rough English translation: "Secret Admirer with Extra Cheese") and, as she had previously done when expressing her sentiments over what happened with this film, refused to refer to
Eduardo Ortíz by name.
