One of the great virtues of our urban genre divas is undoubtedly their character and strength. These qualities were on full display with Bad Gyal this weekend amidst the controversy that arose on social media after she rejected Rauw Alejandro’s approach to perrear at his «Club Saturno,» the first in his concert series.
The artist presented a new celebration format that left no one indifferent, performing up to 20 songs ranging from his greatest hits to merengue, and even including some songs from figures like Elvis Crespo. However, the most talked-about moment on social media by far was his brief disagreement with the Catalan artist.
Bad Gyal was one of the guest artists at one of Rauw’s most anticipated celebrations, who hasn’t had the best year after his highly publicized breakup with Spanish star Rosalía. The tense moment occurred when the performer of «Mi Lova» was about to sing the remix of one of her most well-known hits, «Chulo pt. 2,» her collaboration with Tokischa and Young Miko.
That’s when the Puerto Rican artist seems to approach her from behind without warning, establishing physical contact with her, but Bad Gyal backs away (in fact, she pushes him away with her arm), rejecting any attempt to perrear.

In case there was any doubt about the awkward moment, after the performance, Rauw says he wanted to twerk with Bad Gyal, but she «seemed shy,» to which the artist is very willing to put an end to any discussion and make it clear that she does not want to be associated with the artist in any suspicious way.
«No, don’t involve me; there are many beautiful girls around here,» the artist stated.
«What involvement? I’m single, mami, and you?» Rauw asked.
«I’m here to do what I came for, which is to sing. I’m going to play the one I have to now, and I’ll leave you with Rauw to continue his party,» Bad Gyal concluded, amid some complaints from the audience.
Of course, many users on social media have been following the Catalan artist’s steps after the controversial performance. And yes, Bad Gyal has publicly commented on this moment, but rather in a friendly manner.
«Thank you @rauwalejandro!!!! 💕💕💫 had a great time,» the artist wrote on her Instagram profile. However, many comments from her followers were quick to come.

«Very well, girl, you put him in his place,» «you can say it was uncomfortable, my life, we all thought so,» «Yo perreo sola,» «You went to do what you had to do, and that’s it!» are some of the most repeated comments on the post.
For his part, with a clear willingness to dispel any bad vibes between the two artists who have collaborated before, Rauw has shared a video of the Catalan artist dancing merengue and has expressly thanked her for her presence, in addition to sharing several videos of her performance. «Thanks, Bad Gyal, for coming to PR and killing it for 2 nights at Club Saturno,» he wrote on his Instagram profile.
