“I never imagined that I would be the one to sing for the great international American stars: Beyoncé and Jay-Z.”
“You can’t imagine the emotion I felt being able to give my humble voice to those two greats. It was like a dream…”
The singer, a former vocalist of the group Bamboleo who has toured the U.S., wrote on Facebook that several weeks ago she had been booked for a “private reception,” but was told only that her audience would be “A married couple coming from the United States to celebrate their anniversary.”
