“How I suffer!”: Otaola celebrates trending on social media after Bebeshito's concert

The host Alexander Otaola is trending on social media following Bebeshito's concert, reaffirming his impact on the Cuban-American public discourse.


Cuban presenter Alexander Otaola is making headlines again, this time after sharing a screenshot on Instagram that shows his name trending in the United States on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter). In the image, Otaola highlighted his position among the most mentioned terms, accompanied by a sarcastic message: "Not only am I going to make the world shout my name, but they'll make me a trend. How I suffer, how I suffer!"

The publication comes at a time when Otaola's name has been widely mentioned on social media, mainly due to the massive concert by Oniel Bebeshito at the Pitbull Stadium in Miami. During the event, attendees repeatedly chanted "Suffer, Otaola" in response to the critical comments the host had made in the weeks leading up to the concert, questioning the reggaeton artist's ability to fill a stadium of that size.

Otaola had stated on his program that Bebeshito would not be able to achieve a sold-out performance, insisting that "you're not Bad Bunny" and that "that stadium doesn't get filled with just Cubans." However, the event proved otherwise, gathering nearly 20,000 fans, mostly Cubans, and solidifying itself as a milestone for Cuban urban music.

In response to the wave of mentions and criticism following the concert, the host quickly reacted with ironic posts. Among them was a screenshot he shared where his name was trending.
