Rosalía sends support to Spain after train tragedy

Rosalía paused the celebrations at WSJ. Magazine’s Innovator Awards to speak about the high-speed train accident that struck Spain earlier this week.

The Spanish singer-songwriter was being honoured for her contributions to music and culture, but she chose to put the festivities aside and share her grief with everyone affected by the news from home.

Addressing the audience in Spanish, she paid an emotional tribute to the victims and their families.

“Before I begin, I want to send my heart, my thoughts, and all my strength to everyone back home in Spain affected by the terrible train tragedy,” she said while accepting the award in New York. “It is hard to celebrate when such painful moments are happening to our people. My heart is completely with the victims, their loved ones, and everyone working tirelessly to help in this difficult hour.”

Her words brought a reflective mood to the New York ceremony, where guests from fashion, art, entertainment and literature had gathered to celebrate creative innovation. Instead of dwelling only on her own success, she used the international platform to draw attention to the strength and resilience of her homeland during a time of national mourning.

The speech struck a chord with those in the room and with fans worldwide, who praised her composure, empathy and closeness to her roots at a moment in the global spotlight.
