After the band performances, three boys were up for elimination: Sebastián Rivera, Joshua Greaux and Jaime Cruz. These boys received the lowest audience votes after last week’s episode. The audience then had a chance to vote live during the show via the Univision Conecta app to save their favorite contestant, which was Jaime Cruz. The judges voted to save Sebastian Rivera resulting in Joshua Greaux being eliminated.
Remaining contestants then performed individually.
