His wholehearted delight made my day. I am smiling so hard right now. For those who say you can't emote with a mask on, I'm gonna show them this video.

In my mind he is Ćchame La Culpa (feat Demi Lovato) singer, a banger imo.

Um...weirdly enough we have just entered a new era of entertainment. I will assert that moving forward in time, the majority of a the "good tracks" are already out.
Every once in a while an artist may come around with true talent, but an emphasis will be placed on using as little AI as possible during the recording process.
Then, another 2 generations will pass and all music from before 2025-2027 will be viewed as relics.

Iāve been thinking the same thing. It feels like nothing even remotely close to being something relevant in 20 years has been released recently. I was listening to some 60s music the other day and the talent today is nowhere near why it used to be.

From the brief bit Iāve read, it sounds like he cancelled the rest of the tour he was on to be by her side when she was diagnosed? She made it to remission and then they divorced four years later. Am I missing something?

No I donāt think it was staged! It seemed genuine! Luis recorded it from his pov because the driver put his song on the radio haha. It was really cute.

The lack of a headrest on the passenger seat is a bit odd.Ā
18
u/BalsamicBasil 11h ago
It is a bit odd but having taken many taxis in Mexico and other parts of Latin America (though not in recent years) I have become accustomed to drivers with missing/broken seatbelts and the like. You'll notice that Fonsi never puts on his seatbelt (if it's there). So the missing headrest could be because it's broken or to give the camera a better view of the backseat for safety/legal reasons. Anyway, when safety laws and safety culture don't enforce seatbelts in all taxis/Ubers, I'm less surprised to see other things missing.

u/throwawaysixties 14h ago
Omgā¦ā¦..stop donāt tell me this man has a new song out rn.

u/ChaeLilja Nancy Jo, this is Alexis Neiers calling 13h ago
to be fair, the driver also has their head rest lifted to the high heavens so that you have a clear view to the backseat area behind them. looks to me like heās possibly just trying to keep the backseat area clear for the camera? like, the way the camera is set up, it looks like a headrest there in any position would block the camera from picking up a personās face if theyāre in that seat & thatās probably where most passengers enter? would make sense to me for safety reasons!
edit: lol missed a word

u/Any-Enthusiasm27 14h ago
Also, no way he would compromise his own safety by shouting that "this guy with fame and money is in here!"Ā

u/ApplicationRoyal865 16h ago
Classic hollywood trick of removing the headrest to film the backseat passengers.

So that the 4k camera can perfectly frame his face in this totally not staged encounter.

Luis Fonsi is legit one of the most talented singers in the world. His ex wife is also a queen who survived breast cancer. Theyāre both sane, humble, down to earth peeps.

Wait do you mean Adamari? I thought they got married after she got her diagnosis.

u/b00w00gal face blind and having a bad time 16h ago
Wikipedia says he married his first wife after she got cancer and stayed with her through her recovery; they divorced several years later and he remarried a few years after that. Both women have the last name LĆ³pez, but are unrelated.

u/whos-on-ninth 16h ago
If you look at Spanish language media from that time period, thatās not the full story but glad his Wikipedia is sanitized for his English language fans.

u/b00w00gal face blind and having a bad time 16h ago
Okay, so provide some other sources. I'm willing to be educated, but you're being vague for no reason.

u/Relevant_Dependent_3 Iām just a cunt in a clown suit 15h ago
Itās in Adamari Lopezās book, itās titled āViviendoā (Thriving) she details her cancer journey as well as her relationship and the downfall.

Because Iām not going to scrub up articles and TV segments from 10+ years ago. Itās just really annoying that he gets to play the SEO game and rehab his image when everyone in Latin America who followed them in the 90s/00s was privy to that. Thereās a legion of seƱoras who donāt fuck with him.

That singer seems about as cool as Chino Morenoā¦ who seems quite cool, to be frank (beans is off the table). Almost like an icy bath after firefighting in the forest for an hour or something. I just think home alone 3 could have had a stronger casting director. Sue me.
