The stylist was doing it wrong, and when I looked in the mirror, I noticed it was so bad that I left it. All the kids who were there went crazy. That’s why I keep it, because all the kids love it,” he explained.
After this revelation, Jimmy Fallon surprised the public by putting on a wig similar to the Featherweight style, causing laughter. However, he soon took it off, admitting that only the singer looks good on it.
“I wanted to see what I would look like with your cut. Let’s see, I’ll wear this. I can not do this. There is only one Featherweight!” Finally, the singer of hits like ‘La bebe’ announced the release of his song ‘Durango’, which will be the third single from his new album ‘Éxodo’.
