In 2014, Abenia appeared as a celebrity contestant on the popular long-running Spanish game show Pasapalabra and was found to be cheating by the host, Christian Galvez. During one of the segments, which involved naming a tune, Abenia was found to be using her iPhone and the music identifying app Shazam. She openly admitted to breaking the rules but the violation was well received by audiences, who called the episode one of the show's most entertaining.
