KAROL G
KAROL G, born Carolina Giraldo Navarro, is a global superstar who has redefined Latin music and paved the way for a new generation of artists. With a historic GRAMMY® win for Best Música Urbana Album, multiple Latin GRAMMY® Awards and more than 310 RIAA Platinum certifications in the U.S., she is one of the most decorated and streamed female artists in the world, with over 117 billion career streams. Her groundbreaking album “MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO” made her the first woman to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with a Spanish-language album. Its follow-up, “MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO (BICHOTA SEASON)”, debuted at No. 3, making her the first artist to place two Spanish-language albums in the Billboard 200 Top 10 in the same year. In 2025, she expanded her creative universe with “TROPICOQUETA,” which marked her fourth consecutive No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart, delivered the biggest streaming week of the year for a Latin album by a woman and made history as she placed 20 songs simultaneously on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart. On stage, KAROL G has set new touring records worldwide. She delivered the highest-grossing North American tour ever by a Latina artist, sold more than one million tickets across Latin America and became the first Latina to headline three consecutive nights at Mexico’s Estadio Azteca. Her European stadium run included four sold-out nights at Madrid’s Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, surpassing artists such as Taylor Swift and Coldplay with more than 220,000 tickets sold, making it the largest Latin tour in European history. In 2026, she will make history as the first Latina artist to headline Coachella. A powerful cultural force beyond the stage, KAROL G made history as the first artist to headline the NFL’s inaugural halftime show in Brazil, performed alongside Andrea Bocelli during the Vatican’s first-ever public concert, delivering “Mientras Me Curo del Cora” and “Vivo Por Ella” and debuted on the runway at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. In Paris, she became the first Latina artist from Latin America to headline Crazy Horse, appearing as a “Crazy Girl” across eight exclusive performances. Her influence extends into film, fashion, and philanthropy. Her Netflix documentary KAROL G: Mañana Fue Muy Bonito reached No. 1 in 19 countries, including the United States, Colombia, Mexico and Spain. She has collaborated with global brands including Diesel, co-creating a nine-piece capsule inspired by TROPICOQUETA and has expanded her influence into spirits with the launch of 200 Copas by Casa Dragones. She is also the first music artist honored with her own Bratz doll and continues to uplift women and underserved communities through her Con Cora Foundation. In 2025, KAROL G earned major honors across multiple award platforms. At the Billboard Latin Music Awards, she received Global 200 Latin Song of the Year and Tropical Song of the Year for “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” and was named Hot Latin Songs Artist of the Year (Female).
