Cuban presenter Alexander Otaola responded to reggaeton artist Yomil Hidalgo Puentes, who recently suggested in a video that the controversial influencer may have intervened to have his entry visa to the United States denied.
In his live program on YouTube, Otaola did not overlook the accusations and made several ironic comments about the singer's situation.
"Look at Yomil crying because he didn't get the visa. It's possible they gave it to him and he's just trying to mislead everyone. I don't believe anything he says," Otaola stated, dismissing the reggaeton artist's words.
The driver, known for his controversial opinions, added that Yomil might try other routes to reach the United States, but he warned that current immigration policies could complicate that plan.
"It seems fine to me that he comes through Mexico or Canada. They didn’t give him the visa, he says; I don't know if he's aware that there's a new president who claims that anyone crossing the border will be sent back," he commented sarcastically.
The controversy began when Yomil posted a video on his Instagram account suggesting that Otaola might have been involved in the alleged visa denial.
Although he did not present concrete evidence, his statements heightened tensions between the two, who have a long history of public confrontations.
Otaola, for his part, denied the accusations and took the opportunity to send a mocking message to the artist. This exchange once again highlights the polarization between the two figures in Cuban entertainment, who seize every chance to criticize and point fingers at one another.
