The controversy is not over for La Diosa following her recent concert at the Watsco Center in Miami. Despite the effort and production behind the event, images of empty seats circulated on social media, triggering a wave of criticism, mockery, and also messages of support for the Cuban artist.
The influencer Un Martí To Durako shared a video showing areas of the venue without an audience, which sparked many internet users to lash out at the performer with scathing comments.
“Wasn't that place closed due to capacity?”; “With so many talented artists in the world, they pick this girl”; “Next time, she should choose a venue 10 times smaller, that wouldn't be a problem; it's worse to look for a huge place and end up with this embarrassment. She belongs in a cabaret, not a stadium”; “Look, for that to be almost empty, that's really bad; the support is minimal, she brought this on herself”; “She reaps what she has sown; if someone hasn't received support, it's her for lying and criticizing everything with her lack of empathy; the internet doesn't forget”; “One gets what they deserve. She's rude, bitter, claims she's changed, but not at all”.
Other comments characterized the show as a "meeting of old folks" or mocked the singer's voice: "It's just filled with seniors"; "The ones from Sierra Maestra went there, and nothing that was heard sounds good, just a gathering of old people"; "Voice? How can you say that when the poor thing just barks"; "My neighbor also has a great voice, but she doesn't throw a concert at the Watsco Center singing karaoke all night. I didn't hear a single one of her songs. And of course, there was no shortage of half an hour of useless chatter."
Nonetheless, there were also those who came to La Diosa's defense and highlighted the quality of the performance: “I don't know if it was sold out or not, but what I saw on YouTube was very good and on par with any other international stage that we Cubans praise so much. It was a great show and very well organized”; “Once again, La Diosa is proving that she is a warrior and can overcome all those who try to overshadow her, well done Diosa, congratulations to you and your team for that great concert.”
Some followers also lamented the lack of unity and the tension among Cubans: “A Cuban killed a Cuban, that’s what we are teaching the new generation that comes after us, for me that’s unacceptable, in the end, he is singing for an audience that was there even if it wasn’t full”; “For these same reasons, even though I am Cuban, I do not hire any Cubans. All they know how to do is try to make other Cubans look bad. It's always about envy and the desire to stand out above anyone, by any means.”
Critiques and praises aside, La Diosa's concert marked an important milestone in her artistic career by debuting a new album, Jewels, which completely distances itself from the vulgarity in her music that she has often been questioned about.
