MIAMI - Versatility seems to be Anitta's middle name. Gearing up for her Miami show on Thursday, the Brazilian superstar opened up about the rumors of a romantic relationship with Mexican artist Peso Pluma. She simultaneously released a potent new song with another Mexican icon: Alejandro Fernández.
Rumors of a romance between Anitta and Peso Pluma exploded after their sensual performance of "Bellakeo" at the Coachella music festival last month. Their interaction onstage seemed to be more than just two artists getting the audience excited. Photos and videos taken in the days following their performance appeared to confirm that they were enjoying each other's company beyond the stage.
Just as the public had begun to accept that neither of them would address the rumors, Anitta broke her silence.
Anitta does Mexican music
Versatility is a word that applies to much of what Anitta does, but in this case the focus is on Mexican men and Mexican music. Her first collaboration with a Mexican artist was "Bellakeo," with Peso Pluma.
The song is representative of the urban Latin music that is being made in México with a touch of Anitta's funk.
She seems to have loved the experience because she is dropping "La Tóxica" this week with Alejandro Fernández. This song is more ranchera than reggaeton or funk, Anitta's favorite genre. However, she proved once again that she can do it all. The song is amazing and their voices blend well together.
And Peso Pluma?
Before her Miami stop in her "Baile Funk Experience Tour", Anitta addressed the swirling rumors about her romance with Peso Pluma head-on.
"We love each other very much, and I believe that's what matters. People have a strong need for labels, but I like to live life and see what happens," she said.
While she didn't deny or confirm that there is a romance between them, her words leave lots of room for speculation. The rumors of a relationship between them have been circulating for months and reached a new level of intensity on the night of May 21st when 'La Doble P' was seen accompanying Anitta at her Los Angeles concert, remaining close in the backstage area.
Before there was the video from the after-party of the 2024 Latin AMAs, where Anitta and Peso Pluma could be seen sharing a passionate kiss.
Fans have taken to social media to express their excitement and skepticism about the potential couple. Some are celebrating the idea of a new power couple in Latin music, while others remain doubtful. A notable incident that caught attention was when Anitta received a lavish bouquet of roses, believed by many to be a romantic gesture from Peso Pluma.
As rumors continue to swirl, the world remains captivated by the potential romance between Anitta and Peso Pluma. Whether they are just close friends or something more, their connection is undeniable, and fans are eagerly watching for any new developments.
In the meantime, Anitta's new single "La Toxica" is poised to dominate the charts, providing the perfect soundtrack to the ongoing saga of her rumored romance with Peso Pluma. Whether through their professional collaborations or their personal lives, these two stars are shining brightly in the Latin music scene.
