For some, a symbol of bad omens; for others, a kind of talisman. Glen, the doll that accompanied El Taiger in his last music video and at several concerts and social media appearances before his death, has sparked the curiosity of many of his followers.
Glen is the son of the evil dolls Chucky and Tiffany from the horror movie series Child's Play. While his alter ego Glenda represents his malevolent side, Glen is, in fact, the kindest and most innocent part of the character.
In the movie Seed of Chucky (2004), Glen is horrified by the violence of his parents, and although his appearance suggests otherwise, he is not a bad person.
But how did this doll come into the hands of El Taiger, and what did it mean to him? According to a text from Cuba Cute, the Glen doll belonged to a friend of the reggaeton artist Sandro Cumbas; however, it was more than just a simple accessory for the singer, as he came to identify with the doll and it became a symbol of his style and image.
The artist's manager, Teresa Padrón, traveled to Cuba for El Taiger's burial and brought with her the doll that would now be in the hands of her youngest daughter, Ana Paloma.
Images of the girl holding the doll are circulating on social media, sparking mixed opinions: "I urge you to separate that little angel from that doll; there’s something sinister about it, just looking at it makes my skin crawl. Get that away from the girl." "If that doll were truly so powerful, El Taiger would still be alive today. And they give it to the little girl? There's no sense in that; people have no limits. Objects carry the burdens of their owners, and this one has only brought sorrow and misfortune." "That doll radiates such a dark aura that it shouldn't be near a child." "I believe the girl shouldn't keep that doll. In the name of Jesus, I cast out any evil spirit that may be associated with it."
Others, on the contrary, do not see this negative meaning: "God bless you, beautiful girl. Fear nothing. You should be afraid of the wicked living ones, but not of this doll. Your daddy in heaven must be very proud and happy that you have it; your father knew well the wholesome purpose of that doll." "Watch the movie. Just like Glen, El Taiger was a good person surrounded by evildoers. Don't be afraid of a mere doll; it's the living who are frightening, and they can be treacherous, just like they were to El Taiger. Leave behind superstitions and focus on seeking justice for him." "Glen is completely different from his parents; he is the son of Chucky and is against violence. There's nothing wrong with that doll; the real threat is from the living, not a doll. Poor girls, they've been left orphans and have destroyed an entire family."
