Natalia Lafourcade describes the ‘Las Natalias’ meme as ridiculous

The singer from Veracruz responds to the viral that compares several Mexican artists.

Natalia’s response

The “Las Natalias” meme returned to the conversation. This time, Natalia Lafourcade decided to respond bluntly. During a talk with YouTuber Henry Spencer, the “Hasta la Root” singer described the trend as ridiculous.

“What idleness, really. How ridiculous,” he said.

The viral comparison—which uses the classic Spiderman meme pointing—suggests that singers like Ximena Sariñana, Carla Morrison, Mon Laferte and Julieta Venegas “all sing the same.” They even label them with nicknames like “tattooed Natalia” or “strawberry Natalia.”

Lafourcade was clear: each one has her own style. And he stressed his respect for his colleagues.

“The truth is that that is very bad because we each have our own style. I adore them and respect them very much. I don’t believe that we are alike at all,” she stated.

With humor, he added that those who confuse them “need to tune their ears a little more to realize the enormous differences we have, enormous and wonderful.”

The singer from Veracruz also revealed that she maintains a close friendship with several of the artists. In fact, they share a WhatsApp group.

“I talk to everyone. I have a chat where they are, of course, because we are friends,” she said, referring to Julieta, Mon, Carla and Ximena.

When asked if the chat is called “Las Natalias,” he responded with a laugh:

“The chat could be called ‘Las Julietas’, ‘Las Carlas’ or ‘Las Mons’. That makes us all laugh a lot.”

A day before the accident that took his life, Oliver Tree was radiant. This is how his mother, Christine Begin Nickell, remembered him during the tribute that family and friends held this weekend at the University of California in Santa Cruz (UCSC).

Christine said that hours before the tragedy, she asked him by message how his attempt to quit smoking was going. Oliver responded with a video call and joked by blowing a puff of smoke towards the camera. But beyond the occurrence, it left an indelible impression.

“What impacted me the most was how happy and excited I was with life,” he said.

During that conversation, the musician also mentioned that the next day he would travel by helicopter to a house on the top of a mountain. He planned to record videos and work on new music with friends. Christine explained that Oliver described the experience as an “epic day.” Knowing the excitement with which he awaited that trip makes his last memory even more moving.

Oliver died on June 14 at age 32, when two helicopters collided in the air over Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Five other people died in the accident.

Content creator Jimmy Donaldson, known as MrBeast, donated $6.5 million to support the fight against pediatric cancer. The initiative was featured in their “I Helped 100 Kids Fight Cancer” video on YouTube.

The project was carried out in collaboration with hospitals and specialized foundations. “Memories are part of a comprehensive treatment,” said Dr. Alan Wayne.

The children enjoyed everything from ski rides and swimming with sharks to visits to the theater. Thirty of them went to Disney World in Florida, where they rode the attractions and met their favorite characters.

Other experiences included travel, shopping, meeting celebrities, visits to the Formula 1 paddock and the Blue Origin agency. Some children signed a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

Figures such as streamer IShowSpeed, KSI, the group Stray Kids, Sam and Colby, and Christina Tosi voluntarily participated. The minors visited sports team locker rooms, attended exclusive events and received personalized gifts.

Additionally, MrBeast organized a blood drive in Greenville, North Carolina, which will help save at least a thousand lives. The $6.5 million will be distributed among medical treatments, scientific research and support programs, with support from Amgen and the St. Baldrick’s Foundation.
