They all do the same thing, and their Instagram is just that. They put on one of those songs with a Latin accent (which is obviously sexist, but I can't swear to it because I don't understand a word of what they're saying) and they do the same thing. playback. A video, another video...

The first one I saw –my daughter showed it to me– surprised me. A girl doing playback In a boy's voice? But she said, "They all do it!" And yes, sometimes, when we wonder if a friend from school we haven't seen in years must have changed a lot, we look her up on Instagram. And it never fails. There she is, dressed in Barça, with a ski hat, shorts and a top, pretending to sing like that boy we don't understand.

Sometimes, and to better understand the message of the lyrics, they are accompanied byprops. So I understood the word knife. The girl in question, who was performing in the kitchen, picked up a knife (very cleverly) to illustrate the edifying and cryptic message. It made me laugh that, behind her, stood the artist's alleged father, whose look was not exactly proud.

In my day, drag queens They dressed up, put on makeup, and false eyelashes, and in nightclubs they played Pantoja, Mina, Rocío Jurado, and Mónica Naranjo. I knew one who, when she left the show, still dressed and wearing heels, would hide and wait for me to call her a taxi as if it were mine. When the car stopped, she would get in. This was because all the taxi drivers were milling around in their dresses, which left the seat covered in sequins.

I've always found it funny when people pretend to sing but aren't. I think it's one of the things that would embarrass me the most.
