The Cuban comedian Cuqui La Mora will perform in Miami on Saturday November 28 at the Café Cantante Restaurante, as the artist herself announced on her Facebook account, describing it as a "unique night of great humor and the spectacular music of Los 3 de La Habana."
The announcement comes days after two of her performances were canceled on the same day in Texas and Arizona, which the artist attributes to pressures and threats received from the organizers.
The show will take place at the venue in Miami that is precisely the home space of the group Los 3 de La Habana, formed by Germán Pinelli, Ana Páez, and Tirso Luis Páez, based in the U.S. since 2007.
The convergence is not coincidental: both Cuqui La Mora and Los 3 de La Habana are figures openly associated with the Republican Party and Donald Trump within the Cuban community of South Florida.
The group participated in the Trump Boat Parade in Miami alongside Eric Trump and performed at Tamiami Park during the 2020 campaign, which officially included their song in support of the Republican. In February 2024, Los 3 de La Habana also performed at Mar-a-Lago, where they played the Trump Song at a campaign promotional event. Later, they were featured at the Hispanic Inaugural Ball in Washington, held on January 20, 2025, following his electoral victory. Cuqui La Mora, for her part, obtained U.S. citizenship in March 2025 and voted for the first time in November 2026, publicly declaring: "Here’s another Republican."
The path to this show in Miami was preceded by a spontaneous social media campaign urging the artist to consider performing in the city.
A post by the user Yaciel Pérez on Instagram, which called for people to mention Cuqui in the comments to organize a performance, garnered over 2,800 likes and 532 comments in just a few hours.
The campaign emerged in direct response to the cancellations on November 5 in Texas and Arizona, which occurred just 48 hours after the legislative elections in which the Democrats regained control of Congress.
The restaurant La Cubanita in Odessa, Texas, cited "business reasons" and denied any political motivations, while Expo Cubaneo Arizona 2026 canceled without providing any explanation.
The artist addressed the controversy on Monday in an interview with Alex Otaola on El Mañanero, where she stated that the organizers received calls and threats before suspending the performances, and acknowledged that she has lost followers and experienced a decline in her income.
However, she stood firm against the pressures: "We came to a country of freedom seeking freedom. Freedom of expression is something that they took away from us in Cuba, they take away from us."
Cuqui La Mora also has a performance scheduled in Michigan on November 21 with the Oasis project, which, according to prior reports, had not been canceled, although the artist announced it with a cautious "I hope so."
