The urban singer El Carli denied that he had been a victim of a beating, as circulated on social media, following the publication of a photo of him on a hospital bed.
According to the artist himself, in several videos posted on his Instagram stories, the incident occurred while he was playing basketball, as he does every Sunday. During the game, a scuffle broke out involving a close friend, and amidst the tension of the moment, El Carli slipped, hit his head against the curb, and lost consciousness.
The reggaetoner clarified that he was not involved in any shooting nor was he assaulted by anyone: “Family, I'm fine. No one shot me, no one beat me up,” he assured.
He also took the opportunity to thank his followers for their concern, who have reached out from various places, even from Cuba, to inquire about his well-being. "I am perfectly fine," he reiterated for the reassurance of his fans.
El Carli expressed his annoyance at the spread of unfounded rumors and requested respect because this type of news worries his family in Cuba and his fans.
The origin of the misunderstanding was a photo of him hospitalized, which was shared this Monday by the influencer Un Martí To Durako. Initially, it was reported that El Carli had been involved in a shooting, and later it was claimed that he had been beaten up.
However, in his stories the artist appeared in perfect health and without visible signs of having been assaulted and confirmed that it was all an accident.
El Carli revealed that the photo in the hospital was shared by the same doctor who attended to him, a young Cuban whom he described as a "repartera" and who recognized him as soon as he arrived.
"I saw when that girl took my picture, God knows where she sent that photo", said El Carli, criticizing the professional ethics of the doctor and questioning whether she committed a disrespectful act by taking his photo without consent and furthermore spreading false information.
"Unfortunately, that's how Cubans are; Cubans can't be fixed," said the artist, who confessed he was "stunned" because he never imagined that a healthcare professional would do something like this.
