One young Karol G fan is about to have the ultimate "What did you do over the summer?" answer when she goes back to school this week.
The 32-year-old Colombian sensation, who's currently on her Mañana Será Bonito Tour, made her electrifying MetLife Stadium debut last night to a sold-out crowd in East Rutherford, New Jersey. La Bichota, as she is lovingly called by her legions of fans, blazed through her catalogue of hits including TQG, Tusa, El Makinon, and Amargura.
However, one young fan towards the front of the stage made quite an impression on the singer. "This tiny queen over there, how is it possible that she knew the words to this song from beginning to end? If she comes up here, will she sing it?" asked Karol in Spanish to a burst of cheers.
Seven-year-old Natalia was brought up to the stage with her handmade sign and introduced herself to Karol before the sold-out crowd. When asked what her favorite Karol G song is, she responded with "Gucci Los Paños," an expletive-filled corrido off the Mañana Será Bonito LP. The pair then sang a short duet of the song, with Karol hilariously moving the microphone away from the young fan's mouth for the swear words.
"Mama, did she listen to the CD more than you, or what? Because I saw her singing but you not so much," Karol said to Natalia's mother to a roar of laughter.
Karol's MetLife debut also featured some unique surprises just for her New York-area fans. The singer brought out fellow Colombian reggaeton artist Ryan Castro to perform their remix of "Una Noche En Medellín" for the first time. The singer also treated fans to the first-ever performance of "Gatita Gangster" off of the "Bichota Season" installment of her Mañana Será Bonito album.
The Mañana Sera Bonito Tour is Karol G's first U.S. stadium tour and recently played in major markets such as Las Vegas, Pasadena, Miami, and Houston. The trek will wrap up at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts on Sept. 28. Karol is also set to perform for the first time at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 12 where she is nominated for Artist Of the Year. She also shares two nominations for Best Latin and Best Collaboration with Shakira for their hit "TQG".
