Rosalía jokes about open relationships at Rio concert

Spanish pop sensation Rosalía playfully remarked on open relationships during her inaugural concert in Rio de Janeiro on Monday, drawing a parallel between desire and resilience.

Her comment came after Brazilian artist Marina Sena recounted a personal experience with an open relationship at age 21. Sena admitted that when a man she was interested in finally reciprocated her feelings, he proposed an open relationship, which she initially accepted. Sena confessed that for a period, she dated a different boyfriend each week.

Responding to Sena's story, Rosalía quipped, "They ask for fire and then they can't handle the heat." The audience reacted with laughter to her witty remark. This moment of shared intimacy occurred during a segment of the show called 'the confessional,' which featured a blend of operatic, sacred, and electronic music, creating a theatrical atmosphere.

Despite facing challenging weather conditions, with fans waiting for hours in the rain, the crowd enthusiastically sang and danced along with Rosalía. The artist engaged with her audience, occasionally switching to Portuguese and even incorporating some 'Portuñol.' Rosalía is scheduled for a second concert in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday before heading to Mexico for eight shows and concluding her tour in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on September 3.
