Rosalía, who is renowned for her emotive performances and innovative music, has been hosting this confessional segment throughout her tour, which resonates with themes of vulnerability and honesty. During the event on 29 June, the 33-year-old singer welcomed the 35-year-old Karol G to the stage, creating an atmosphere of connection and introspection among the audience.
In a sincere discussion, Karol revealed a poignant story from her past by reflecting on a previous relationship that lacked the basic joy of celebrating special occasions together. “I was in a relationship where that person didn’t like to celebrate their birthday with me,” she recounted, as captured in a video shared on social media. This comment prompted Rosalía to express surprise, asking, “How strange… who doesn’t like to celebrate their birthday with their partner?”
As the conversation unfolded, Karol shared amusing anecdotes regarding the excuses her former partner would conjure up each year to avoid birthday festivities. “I’ve become an expert at this by now,” she quipped, hinting at the complex emotions tied to those experiences. She noted that during their time together, they only managed to celebrate one of four birthdays as a couple, illustrating the disconnection in their relationship.
Karol further recounted a significant instance when, on the fourth birthday, they had planned a trip together but her partner opted out at the last minute while she was already at the airport gate. This tale of disappointment elicited laughter and sympathy from the audience, highlighting the shared experience of navigating challenging relationships.
As the confessional segment drew to a close, Rosalía encouraged the audience to celebrate in a grander fashion, stating, “Tonight we are going to celebrate more — and better — than any birthday because you [got rid of] that perla,” referring to the burdens associated with toxic relationships. Following this affirmative moment, the two artists transitioned seamlessly into Rosalía’s performance of her song “La Perla,” which explores themes of love and heartbreak.
Although Karol G did not name her past partner, speculation surrounds her publicised relationship with fellow Colombian musician Feid. The pair sparked romance rumours in 2021; however, Karol confirmed their relationship in a candid interview with Rolling Stone in August 2023. Their romance culminated in a red carpet appearance in May 2025, although reports of a split surfaced later that same year.
During a recent episode of the podcast *Call Her Daddy*, Karol discussed her current status as single and emphasised the importance of self-reflection. “I’m done for a while,” she noted about dating, indicating a desire to focus on personal growth. “I feel very special when I’m alone… I’m enjoying having fun, being in my process with the music.” This sentiment connects with her broader vision as she looks towards future tours and reconnecting with fans.
Karol G’s appearance is just the latest in a series of celebrity guests featured in Rosalía’s concert confessional segments. Previous attendees include Maggie Rogers, Cara Delevingne, and Bad Gyal, showcasing a variety of artists willing to engage in heartfelt discussions during her shows.
As this segment of the Lux Tour demonstrates, Rosalía has successfully created a platform for vulnerability among her peers, enriching the concert experience. By intertwining personal stories with her music, she fosters a communal sense of understanding among her fans and fellow artists alike, encouraging a rare openness in the often glamorous but frequently superficial world of celebrity.
