Karol G has started her concerts in Europe with the ‘Mañana Será Bonito Tour’. The tour kicked off last weekend in Zurich, Switzerland, and has since moved on to Germany. She performed at the Lanxess Arena in Cologne, where she received a warm welcome both inside and outside the stadium, resulting in a notable incident involving a smartphone. 

As seen in images circulating on social media, the Colombian artist leaned out of her vehicle’s retractable cover to get a glimpse of the massive crowd that had caused chaos in the streets of Cologne. Clearly excited and happy, La Bichota greeted her fans as she left her hotel. At one point, she decided to borrow a fan’s iPhone to take a selfie and capture the bustling crowd gathered to welcome her. 

After spinning around to capture her surroundings, it was time to say goodbye and head to her next destination. However, upon returning to the car, she accidentally took a mobile phone that wasn’t hers! In the videos, it’s clear that she completely forgot to return the device to its owner.

This stirred up social media, and now the artist herself is searching for the owner of a mobile phone through her Instagram stories. ‘Whose phone is this?’ Karol wrote in her Instagram stories after sharing the video she recorded. 

Will ‘La Bichota’ find the fan who lost their phone? Her fans are discussing this online. Many are wondering how she managed to upload the video recorded on another phone… Therefore, it’s possible she has already reached out to the person, who might have sent her the video to keep as a memory of the incident. 

First Reactions

This incident caused quite a stir on X (formerly Twitter). Many users focused more on this moment than on the large crowd Karol G attracted in countries where Spanish isn’t the primary language. Comments flood social media, as users joked about this unintentional and entirely accidental incident.

  • “Return the phone.”
  • “Even when you move away from your old neighborhood, it still sticks with you.”
  • “Those of us who are forgetful can relate.”

Some even referenced a line from her song «El Makinon,» specifically the part that goes, “Ever since I was a little girl, breaking the law.”
