With four albums, dozens of awards (including two Latin Grammys) and thousands of fans worldwide, he needs no introduction. However, Karol G had an uncomfortable time on Spanish television.
What happened? Guest of “El Hormiguero”, one of the most successful shows, its host confused the name of the Colombian. And the bad timing was undeniable.
Everything had started well. Karol G talked about his professional career, the recent collaboration with Shakira on the song “TQG” and the release of his new album.
However, suddenly the weather changed. It’s that Motos, the show’s host, slipped and confused her with Becky G…
“The trick why Becky G’s songs got millions of views then, which has nothing to do with coincidence or fluke, but a lot of hard work,” he said.
Karol’s surprised face was evident. As the Colombian fans’ anger was also clear, they began to blast social media demanding clarification on the production of “El Hormiguero”.
And it was Motos himself who warned: “Before I was confused and I said Becky G, instead of Karol G, and there are a lot of people pointing a gun at me telling me that I’m not going to finish the show. It is a mistake. Sorry, sorry,” he said.
And the good Karol accepted the apology: “Nothing happens, it happens to me constantly.”
