The Latin Grammys surrender to Rosalía’s Motomami, Jorge Drexler (and Giorgina)

The pop rock of Jorge Drexler, alternative music Rosalía (spectacular with her transparent dress with Miu Miu applications) and the traditional compositions of the nonagenarian Angela Alvarez, starred in the diversity of Hispanic music awarded at the 23rd Latin Grammy Awards held this Thursday in Las Vegas.

In presentation work we had no less than Georgina Rodriguez. Cristiano’s wife wore a sparkly off-the-shoulder, side-slit model, a design by Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini. She also chose Chopard jewelry. A style by the Spanish Alba Melendo who has already worked with the influencer.

Although the favorite of the night was Bad Bunny, even for Drexler himself, the Uruguayan musician won seven gramophones, including best song and best recording for the song “Tocarte”, in which he shares credits with C. Tangana.

The musician did not get tired of expressing his amazement at being the most awarded of the night, but he celebrated “the existing bridges” that the Spanish language has created in music in all its various styles.

Rosalía took the prize in one of the most important categories of the celebration as the best album of the year for “Motomami”did not hide her emotion for having been selected, as she confessed that at some point she thought that this award would go to Drexler.

However, she celebrated the impulse of women in music and the opening of the industry by accepting an album as eclectic as hers, to which she dedicated three years of creative process and which she confessed has been: “The album that touched me the most quarrel”.

The most unexpected thing of the night was the appointment as best new artist to Angela Álvarez, a 95-year-old Cuban who began her career as a singer in old age promoted by her grandson, but the woman had a tie with the Mexican Silvana Estrada who has been compared to the greatness of

Those present also witnessed the emotion of Christina Aguilera when she won the recognition for best traditional pop vocal album for her album, which marked the complete return of the singer of Ecuadorian descent to the Spanish language.

However, the gala was also marked by the absence of great figures, especially Bad Bunny, the most nominated artist of the night, contender for ten gramophones, of which he only took two, as well as the Spanish C. Tangana, who He was not present to receive the two corresponding Grammys for his song with Drexler.

Among the outstanding musical numbers of the gala were the presentation of Aguilera with Nodal of the song Cuando me de la gana, the presentation of the Puerto Rican Rauw Alejandro, who delighted his colleagues with his dance, as well as the dramatic presentation of the bachata singer Romeo Santos . The female presence in the music was felt with Karol G, Rosalía, Ángela Aguilar and Anitta, who flooded the stage with individual presentations full of feminine strength, sensuality and dance. Karol raised the room temperature by singing Gatúbela, while Rosalía presented Hentai transformed with short black hair. Anitta, in addition to hosting the event, sang the viral song Envolver live, where she performed her famous reggaeton step, while Ángela Aguilar made an impact in a blue sequined suit inspired by Elvis Presley, but Mexicanized with charro motifs. While non-Spanish-speaking artists also accompanied the Latino celebration, such as the American John Legend, who was with Sebastián Yatra on stage singing Red Heels, and the British legend Elvis Costello; who delighted those present with Jorge Drexler to sing Tocarte. In addition, the demonstrations of love between the artists did not wait, as was the case of Christian Nodal who appeared at the gala accompanied by Cazzu, his current girlfriend, and to whom he dedicated a few words of thanks when he went on stage to receive a gramophone.

Likewise, Rosalía and Rauw Alejandro fell in love with the attendees on two occasions, first when the Catalan approached the Puerto Rican in her presentation to dance Despechá for him and later, when she thanked him for his support from the stage to perform Motomami. And if someone took the opportunity to shine during the gala, it was Thalía, who did not miss the opportunity to show off with an extravagant and different wardrobe in each of the appearances that she had.
