A new scandal surrounds Dominican singer Yailin La Más Viral following an altercation at Barajas Airport in Madrid. Well-known paparazzi Jordi Martín was assaulted by members of the artist's security team while attempting to get a few brief statements during her time in Europe. The moment was captured on video and quickly spread across social media, sparking outrage.

Martín approached Yailin as she walked by in a red sweater with a hood, trying not to draw attention. He asked her how she was feeling about her European tour, but before the artist could respond, a member of her team interrupted: “No, I know you... you don’t need to film her, she’s not in a condition to do that.” The journalist tried to explain that he was just doing his job, but another companion sharply replied, “Okay, but they’re telling you no.”

The situation became tense when one of the bodyguards hit Martín in the leg with a suitcase, prompting a reaction from the journalist: “Don’t touch me. I don’t know how to say this: just don’t touch me.” At another moment in the video, the same individual approached him aggressively: “You’re asking for a knockout, man. You know I can knock you out”. The images have been widely shared on entertainment news pages.

So far, neither Yailin nor her team have made any public statements. Meanwhile, the video continues to circulate online, sparking debate about the boundaries between artists' privacy and journalistic work. Some fans have defended the singer, pointing out that she may be emotionally affected, while others criticize her lack of professionalism.

Amidst the controversy, there was speculation on social media that the aggressor could be the event producer Miguel Ángel Tavera Carrión, known as “Bombon Productions,” who is recognized in the Dominican music industry. However, he denied his involvement in a mocking tone via Instagram: “A video of mine created with AI is circulating. That’s not me, I swear,” he wrote in his stories.

This new incident in Madrid adds to Yailin's history of controversies, fueling her reputation as a controversial figure in the world of urban entertainment.
