Latin stars unite in Miami concert for Venezuela and Colombia earthquake victims

A constellation of Latin music stars united in Miami for a massive benefit concert and telethon, dubbed 'Unidos por los Nuestros,' to aid victims of devastating earthquakes in Venezuela and Colombia. The event, held at the Kaseya Center, saw over a hundred artists and personalities, including Marc Anthony, Chayanne, Olga Tañón, Luis Fonsi, and Feid, lend their voices to the cause.

Legendary host Don Francisco, often called the father of Latin American telethons, opened the night, emphasizing that "in the face of such a great tragedy, all help is welcome, even the smallest." The concert featured a star-studded lineup, with Gilberto Santa Rosa, Chino y Nacho, Gente de Zona, Mau y Ricky, and Piso 21 among those performing.

Surprise appearances by Camilo and Evaluna, along with Yandel, generated intense excitement among the audience of over 15,000. The night kicked off with "Color Esperanza," an iconic Latin anthem, performed by a chorus of young Venezuelan artists. Chayanne, a crowd favorite, expressed his "deep connection" to Colombia and Venezuela after his performance.

Fonsi and Tañón moved the audience to tears with "No me doy por vencido," while Marc Anthony and Gente de Zona ignited euphoria with "La Gozadera." Olga Tañón, "La Mujer de Fuego," urged donations, stating, "If there's one thing we Latinos have, it's that when something happens to one of our own, we all come together."

Evaluna Montaner, performing with her husband Camilo, highlighted the importance of mutual support, saying, "No one gets up alone in life. In Venezuela and Colombia, there are many people who need us to lend them a hand and not leave them alone." The concert and telethon were broadcast simultaneously across multiple platforms, including Univision and TelevisaUnivision's streaming service ViX, as well as various radio stations and television networks.
