Karol G's 'Viajando Por El Mundo Tropitour' has achieved an astonishing sales feat, moving more than 2 million tickets within its initial four-day sales period. The overwhelming demand has necessitated an expansion of the tour, growing from 39 to 63 stadium shows worldwide to accommodate her global fanbase.

This prestigious award recognizes artists whose global music and cultural impact resonate worldwide, a list that includes legends like Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson.
The Colombian artist's career continues to reach new heights. In April, she became the first Latina artist to headline the Coachella festival, dedicating the historic moment to the Latino community. Her 2023 album, MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO, also made history as the first Spanish-language album by a woman to debut at number one on the Billboard 200 chart.
Karol G's journey has been marked by significant milestones, including the Grammy win for Best Música Urbana Album for MAÑANA SERÁ BONITO. The singer has amassed over 128 billion career streams and more than 310 RIAA Platinum certifications in the U.S., solidifying her status as a dominant force in global music.
The 52nd American Music Awards ceremony is scheduled to air live from Las Vegas on May 25th. Queen Latifah is set to host, with a lineup of performances including Hootie & the Blowfish, Maluma, and Teyana Taylor.
