FIFA confirms halftime show with Madonna, Shakira and BTS

From the most famous house to the world of dubbing

Content creator Abelito is experiencing an unstoppable moment. After coming in third place in “La Casa de los Famosos México”, starring in a series and now voicing the villain of the new Minions installment, his career does not stop. However, his mother makes sure he doesn’t lose the apartment.

“The reality show was a watershed in my life. I can’t lose my apartment, my mother talks to me every day to tell me that God comes first and not to lose my apartment, so how to do it (laughs). I’m from a town (in Zacatecas) where people greet each other by name,” she says.

Before the interview, the woman came out greeting everyone, proud that her son is still the same. “I think they are there because of their work, I don’t know who else is in dubbing, but if they are there it is because they do it well,” he said.

The challenge of giving life to a monster

Abelito, 25 years old, is just over 1.10 meters tall and weighs about 30 kilos. He rose to fame on TikTok during the pandemic. Now he plays Goomi, a green being who befriends the Minions but hides a dark objective for Earth.

In “Minions & Monsters”, which arrives in Mexico on July 1, he shares credits with Carlos Ballarta and journalist Alberto Lati.

“A word that was difficult for me to say was monsters, because I had to make sure that the N and S could be heard. I speak very fast, they have also told me that. Monsters I repeated it many times,” Abelito recalls.

This is the seventh film with the yellow characters since the franchise began 16 years ago with “Despicable Me”, which already has four installments.

An infiltrator in the competition

As part of the promotion of Spider-Man: A New Day, which premieres on July 29, Tom Holland and Zendaya crashed a stunt contest for the spider hero. Without revealing his identity, Holland competed against content creators seeking the title of “Spider-Man’s Double.”

Between somersaults and web tosses, the actor demonstrated his skills. But the jury, headed by Zendaya and Spanish YouTuber Ibai Llanos, disqualified him. The reason: being the real Spider-Man, he could not be considered a double.

Reactions and virality

At the end, Holland revealed his face. The participants, fans of the Marvel character, were surprised and recreated the famous Spider-Man meme pointing at each other. The video, published just a day ago, has accumulated almost 4 million views.

The crossover between streamers and Hollywood stars generated waves on networks. Users celebrated the creativity of the promotional team and Holland’s naturalness in integrating without being detected.

The disqualification of the actor became a trend and added divided comments: some see it as a brilliant marketing move; others claim that the contest lost authenticity. However, the strategy achieved its objective: to maintain attention on the premiere.

Shakira surprises with the premiere of ‘Dai Dai’ in Spanish

The Colombian singer announced that the Spanish version of her official song for the World Cup, ‘Dai Dai’, will be released this Tuesday, June 23. The launch will occur during the match between Colombia and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, at the Akron Stadium in Guadalajara at 8:00 p.m.

Shakira was captured yesterday at the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, during the Argentina vs. Austria. There he celebrated the record of Lionel Messi, who became the top scorer in World Cup history. The ‘Pies descalzos’ singer came with her children Milan and Sasha.

“Being able to release ‘Dai Dai’ in Spanish and premiere it in the Colombia game means a lot, it’s the big surprise I had for them,” he expressed in a video. The original song is already in the top five global music charts.

The Barranquilla native also highlighted her emotion for the unity that soccer generates and for the positive response to the topic. “I’m excited to see how my team is doing, how Messi is doing at almost 40 years old, the best scorer in the World Cup,” he added.

So far, the singer has not confirmed whether she will perform the song live or it will only be played in the stadium.
