Belinda has made a strong comeback in the music scene after a decade-long break from releasing albums. Her track «Cactus» received a warm reception and marked some significant shifts for the singer. Firstly, she veered away from her usual pop style and embraced corridos tumbados, a genre that’s been making waves globally. Secondly, and notably, she’s delving into her personal life, which she typically kept private. The singer has admitted she’s not one to share much about herself or get caught up in drama.

However, as her song «Cactus» suggests, bottling up emotions isn’t healthy: “My chest isn’t a storage room, everything spills out. What hurts me gets thrown away.” Belinda has confessed that every song on her upcoming album is dedicated to someone. And with the mentioned song, it was clear from the get-go that it was about Christian Nodal.

Recently, the singer released her second single, «300 Noches» (300 Nights) featuring Natanael Cano, a prominent figure in the corridos tumbados genre. This song, like her previous one, delves into the theme of heartbreak. However, this time it’s not just about expressing the pain caused by someone; it’s more about reflecting on the deep hurt of letting go. But, who is the song dedicated to?

Well, several hints suggest it might be about another one of her past partners, but not Christian Nodal. Instead, it could be Giovani Dos Santos, a Mexican football player. They had a relationship that began in 2008, became official in 2009, and abruptly ended in 2010. Dos Santos held a significant place in Belinda’s life, and the breakup visibly affected her emotionally on multiple occasions. As she once mentioned, he was her first love.

Signs Backing Up the Rumors

Belinda subtly hinted in «Cactus» that the song was about Christian Nodal. One clue was the presence of a goat, symbolizing the Capricorn zodiac sign, which aligns with Nodal’s astrological sign. In «300 Noches,» on the other hand, a bull appears, representing the Taurus zodiac sign, matching Giovani Dos Santos, born on May 11th.

Moreover, another strong indication is the ‘Beliseñal’ (The Belinda Sign), a gesture that became famous during her time with the soccer player that involved Belinda placing her wrist with her fist against her forehead, mimicking what the soccer player did whenever he scored a goal and dedicated it to her.

Additionally, according to Belinda’s fans, this could be another clue. It’s noted that she has a device in her hand that restricts her arm movement, hinting at an inability to move beyond the ‘Belinda signals.’
