Coray's Song Outshines FIFA Tracks as Unofficial Mexico Soccer Anthem Amidst Controversy

An independent artist's song has unexpectedly become the unofficial anthem for Mexico's national soccer team, resonating deeply with fans and overshadowing official FIFA-commissioned tracks. Coray's song, "Esto es México," has achieved remarkable success, amassing over 4 million views on YouTube and 2.2 million streams on Spotify, driven by the fervent support of Mexican fans eager to rally behind their team.

This grassroots phenomenon has created a stark contrast with the official FIFA album, which features songs by established artists like Belinda, Alejandro Fernández, and Shakira. While Coray celebrates his independent success, those involved with the FIFA tracks are reportedly expressing frustration. They claim the FIFA federation failed to provide adequate promotion for their songs, leading to a sense of "bitterness" and a "official complaint" over the perceived mismanagement.

The article also briefly mentions unrelated celebrity news. Former "La casa de los famosos" contestant Aldo De Nigris publicly accused celebrity chef Salt Bae of overcharging him at his Mexico City restaurant. De Nigris claims the chef offered a dish on the house, only for De Nigris to be presented with a bill of over 40,000 pesos. Additionally, the article notes the absence of contestant Mar Contreras from a reality show's promotional event, with producers citing a lack of timely authorization for her image use, sparking speculation about potential tensions.
