She continued, “This is the first time since “Zabalaza” that I am doing promo in North America. There is a lot of noise regarding this trip because that was the intention.”
“It was actually very hard preparing for such a small crowd but I’m glad my team and I managed to do it. I loved the lovely intimacy about it and how the team was incredibly welcoming.”
Fans have congratulated the singer on social media.
