However, she was well received by critics in the majority of the concerts. Over the period of the show, Fabiola proved that she was a great performer and singer, and she made it to the finale, where she was runner-up to Maria Fernanda. Fabiola received many tasks during La Academia that took her out of her comfort zone, requiring her to perform in genres that were new to her. *
