A supposed snub by Maluma to Marc Anthony during the preparations for the concert "Medallo en el mapa 2.0," held in April at the Atanasio Girardot Stadium, may have shattered the close friendship that both artists had cultivated over the years. Marc Anthony traveled from Miami in his private jet to participate as a guest in the show, but upon arriving in Medellín for rehearsals, he discovered that Maluma was no longer there.

According to information released by the paparazzi Jordi Martin, Marc reached out to the Colombian artist after finding no one at the rehearsal venue. Maluma reportedly replied that he had waited for him and then left. Given the inability to rehearse, the salsa singer decided to return immediately to Miami and not participate in the show. Since then, there has been talk of a complete cooling of the relationship between the two musicians.

The episode has sparked speculation about a definitive break in a relationship that appeared solid, marked by successful musical collaborations like “Felices los 4” and “La fórmula,” as well as important personal moments such as Maluma's attendance at Marc's wedding to Nadia Ferreira. Neither artist has made any public comments about the incident, but various sources agree that the tension remains.

The journalist and broadcaster Enrique Santos, a close friend of Marc Anthony, backed this account and provided new details that emphasize the seriousness of the conflict. In his radio show, Santos explained that Marc is an extremely diligent artist and never performs without having rehearsed in advance. “Marc doesn’t get on stage without rehearsing; he must have all his musicians. He doesn’t sing with playback; he sings with his full orchestra,” he stated.

Moreover, Santos emphasized the magnitude of the effort it took for Marc to travel from the United States just for that concert: “It was a private flight, fuel, pilot, permits... that totals about 40 to 50 thousand dollars. It’s a shame that happened.” For the announcer, the singer made the right decision to withdraw, given the lack of suitable conditions for the show.

Despite the seriousness of the incident, Santos avoided confirming a definitive break between the artists, but did not rule out the possibility that their relationship has been affected. “Marc is taking this with the seriousness it deserves and with respect for the audience,” he insisted. As rumors grow, Maluma and Marc Anthony's silence only adds to the uncertainty surrounding the future of one of the most celebrated friendships in Latin music.
