A guy can’t have a night out without being the center of a controversy! That’s unfortunately the case for Alejandro Fernández, whose photo at what people are saying is a famous gay bar in Las Vegas is the center of many comments on social media. An independent LGBTQ publication from Mexico posted the image, which went viral almost immediately because you can see a very disheveled Fernández, seemingly intoxicated, shirtless and in the middle of two men.
Some Mexican tabloids claim that Fernández was celebrating both the bachelor party and 33rd birthday party for his friend Alejandro Valladares, who is marrying Miriam Huber on October 14, 2016. Valladares is the brother of former Miss Universe Ximena Navarrete’s boyfriend, Juan Carlos Valladares, allegedly also there. Along with them, according to some publications, was F1 pilot Sergio ‘Checo’ Pérez, and Fernández’s rumored girlfriend Karla Laveaga.
According to reports, the now infamous photo came about when Alejandro was asked by some fans to take a picture with them and he took his shirt of for the photograph. It was no secret that Fernández was in Vegas for the occasion, since all the social media posts of the party’s attendees show how the group, including Alejandro, was having a lot of fun between casinos and clubs.
However, social media had no mercy and as soon as the photo was published, users flooded Twitter with memes, mostly mocking “El Potrillo’s” sexual orientation, which has been a hot topic for a few months now, even though Fernández has yet to comment about it. Nevertheless, he seemed to have taken the whole “controversy” very lightheartedly, even publishing a meme on his Instagram account of the same photo with his body covered with a tuxedo. The post reads “This is the real photo. Haters will say it’s Photoshopped,” and he captioned it: “What happens in Vegas stays in Google.”
