Aitana has six years of musical career behind her and has already become one of the most successful singers in this country. The Catalan has always been characterized by having a strong fan base, many of which belong to a minority. However, in her latest album, Alpha, she wanted to break with everything and show that she is willing to look for new records and reinvent herself.
The artist, who has more than 13 million monthly listeners on Spotify, is making waves with her new tour, but the criticism has not stopped since the beginning. During some of her songs, the second finalist of OT2017 has surprised everyone by offering a show with sensual movements that have broken with the image that was had of her until then.
Given this, a public debate has been created through social networks between the artist's defenders and her detractors. A discussion that has moved directly to television sets. There have been many celebrities who have wanted to give their opinion on the matter and who have not cut a single hair. "It is hypersexualization of childhood," expressed Patricia Pardo in her program Let's see.
However, there have been many well-known faces who have wanted to come out in defense of Aitana after this commotion. And one of them has been Pastora Soler. The Sevillian has assured that "everything has been magnified" and that this type of dance "artists like Karol G or Anitta have been doing for a long time and are references for children."
The one who went to Eurovision is clear about it and has stated that Aitana's music is not made only for children, although it is with that audience that it has had the most impact. "I don't think Aitana has done anything out of this world. She is getting out of hand," he added in an interview for Europa Press.
"It is what they have had to live," he expressed. "We have to try to make friends with that situation and try to educate our children in something that inevitably will not reach them," she continued, putting on the table that she is the mother of two young daughters and knows what she is talking about.
After all the commotion, Aitana has not hesitated to give her first statements to defend herself. The singer has spoken to the same medium and has assured that the only thing that has happened to her is that she has matured. “To say that on this album there is a more rebellious and provocative Aitana is the easy headline, I'm going to be honest with you, and I think she is clickbait," she stated. "I have always been a rebel," she added.
“In the end I have a teenage and young audience, which I want to continue having, but there are many people who tell me that I want to change my audience and no, it is not true. Do you know how difficult it is to have children as fans? Of course I want to have those children and for them to grow with my music, and if another audience wants to come, then it will also be well received," he stated.
