Gloria Estefan confesses that she's afraid of being Latina in the US: "I've never seen anything like this."
The Cuban singer tells 'El Hormiguero' that she carries her passport when she travels around the United States in case she is heard speaking Spanish.
Barcelona"Interpret my silence." This is how Cuban singer Gloria Estefan responded this Thursday to Pablo Motos' question about what it means to be Latino in the United States today. The artist visited The anthill and she stated that "it scares her a little," that she carries her passport in case they hear her "speaking Spanish" and in case "something crazy" happens. Along these lines, Estefan said that it would be "incredible" if she were arrested for "speaking Spanish." "I hope it doesn't come to this," she added.
Regarding migration, the Cuban artist took the opportunity to say that immigration should always be "legal and organized," but that "seeing the families they are separating, how they have mistreated many people and thrown women to the ground in front of their children," scares her. "I have been living there for many years and I have never seen anything like this," Estefan confessed. During the interview, Motos recalled that Bad Bunny will not tour in the United States to avoid raids at concert exits. "Yes sir, but look now, he'll be singing at the Super Bowl," Estefan responded, taking the opportunity to congratulate the Puerto Rican artist: "Come on, Benito, how great!" The Cuban artist said he was "happy" for him.
The Cuban singer appeared on Pablo Motos' show because she's the guest star of Hispanidad 2025 in Madrid, which takes place from October 3 to 12. This is the fifth edition of the festival, and there will be several events, including a free Estefan concert to mark the fiftieth anniversary of her career.
