The artist Aitana Ocaña has become one of the topics of the moment, both through the media and social networks. The performer of songs like Las babys or Los Ángeles premiered her new tour last Sunday in Valencia, scheduled to present her third studio album, Alpha. However, it was some scenes of her performance that caused a media hurricane. There were many users and media outlets that accused the artist of performing “bawdy dances” on stage. The artist defended herself against these criticisms and in her last concert at the Cortijo de Torres Auditorium (Málaga) she once again performed her dances, and, furthermore, with a nod to her detractors.
“To say that on this album there is a more rebellious and provocative Aitana is the easy headline, I’m going to be honest with you, and I think it’s clickbait, but it is true that on this album there is a more mature Aitana. I have been a rebel. What always happens is that it is true that in 11 reasons I was lighter because I was younger and had fewer experiences. Now that I have lived a little longer, I wanted to make some songs that are the same in terms of love and heartbreak, but that talk also of empowerment,” he expressed this week in a statement to Europa Press.
“In the end I have a teenage and young audience, which I want to continue having, but there are many people who tell me that I want to change my audience and no, it’s not true. Do you know how difficult it is to have children as fans? Me, of course. I want to have those children and for them to grow with my music, and if another audience wants to come, then it will also be well received, but I don’t have that need to attract another audience. At my concerts I see families and it’s It’s very cool to have that family audience and I love it,” he said.
Aitana is willing to continue doing her thing and proof of this was her last performance of her new tour this Saturday, at the Auditorio Cortijo de Torres in Malaga. Before starting to sing the first verses of miamor, the song whose choreography is being the most talked about, the artist sent the following message to all her spectators: “Always do what you want.” A phrase with which she made it clear that she was not going to change the way she acted due to the criticism received during the last few days.
And, despite criticism from some, the networks have been filled with displays of support for the singer for not giving in. “Málaga has experienced one of the moments of this tour,” said a user on his X profile (formerly Twitter). “Understanding that Aitana has stage confidence and that she was no longer going to change or stop doing things because of criticism. I don’t know how to explain it, but the rest of the cities are no longer going to experience that little uncertainty,” he stated. Without a doubt, the artist is in a new stage of her professional career with which she demonstrates that she feels completely comfortable.
The artist also emphasized the importance of mental health in her last concert. “I like that, in my family, everyone is healthy, that my friends are lifelong friends. I feel very lucky,” she said. The artist wanted to talk about those people who “are going through a bad time or who feel that they are in a moment of change and that it is not the best thing in the world right now.” “You end up realizing that all change is experience, all change, always, even if we don’t know how to see it, it will always be for the better,” she said.
