Summary
- Karol G performed with Andrea Bocelli at the Vatican
- Karol G walked the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show runway

In the past year, Colombian singer Karol G has reached new heights in her career. Just last month, she made her debut on The Jennifer Hudson Show, where she discussed her recent accomplishments.
One of Karol G's biggest achievements was performing with renowned Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli at the Grace for the World concert in the Vatican City in September. Initially, Karol G was hesitant to accept Bocelli's invitation, as she was nervous about singing in such a prestigious venue. However, her mother convinced her that this was an opportunity that comes once every 25 years, and Karol G ultimately decided to take the stage with Bocelli, delivering a powerful performance of "Vivo Por Ella."
Weeks later, Karol G continued to make waves in the entertainment industry by strutting the runway at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in October. As a Latina artist known for her unique sound and curvy figure, Karol G never thought she would have the chance to be a Victoria's Secret Angel, but she proved herself wrong, embracing the experience and loving every moment on the runway.
Looking ahead, Karol G's biggest milestone is yet to come. Next spring, she will make history as the first Latina artist to headline the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California. Karol G has a mantra in life: "You don't lose the opportunity because you're not ready. You get ready and you take that opportunity." With her unwavering determination and talent, she is poised to make an indelible mark on the music industry.
