The motomami is in New York as, among other things, she will be attending the Met Gala 2024 tonight. There, as she made her way to a restaurant, she was captured as usual by the paparazzi as she signed a series of autographs for her fans. The real surprise came with the unexpected act of Nadia Domínguez, known under the nickname Lady Watermelon, who specialises in creating works of art with fruit.

Nadia approached Rosalía to give her a large watermelon on which her face is carved with precision. A gastronomic portrait or tribute that she had already sculpted in the past for another pop icon. And that was Karol G, although her reaction had nothing to do with that of the Catalan, as she would ignore the gift completely. Rosi, on the other hand, only expressed words of thanks, praising her work: ‘how beautiful, how beautiful’. To which she continued: ‘Mother of mine, what art you have’.

El vídeo en cuestión se ha hecho viral por el efecto que tuvo el regalo en la cantante y en toda su comunidad. De hecho, ella misma lo compartiría en un carrusel de Instagram junto a otras fotos de ‘star’ que incluyen una con un espectacular minivestido de pompón y unas gafas envolventes. Además, en esa misma secuencia, aparece otra imagen con Ayo Edebiri de ‘The Bear’, con la que compartió escena en el show de Jimy Fallon.
