A few days before a planned Spanish tour, Alejandro Sanz provoked concern among his followers by sharing a candid message on social networks. “I’m not well. I don’t know if that helps, but I want to say it. I’m sorry and tired (…) sometimes I really don’t even want to be there.” These words reflected a moment when the artist acknowledged a challenging mental state and wanted to be honest with his audience.
Fortunately, after an outpouring of supportive messages, Sanz appeared to improve in the days that followed. He described feeling better, saying a strong wave of energy had returned, even though the light of the situation had not yet fully returned, and that a small spark seemed to wake inside him. He stressed that he did not want to halt the tour, believing that with the right help, understanding, and support at the events, the performances could continue.
A partner close to the artist, Rachel Perera, addressed the topic on a public platform. She spoke about Sanz’s current state and offered her own perspective on the challenges of sharing personal feelings in moments of vulnerability. She underscored the importance of conveying sincerity and natural emotion, while avoiding sensationalism in coverage.
Perera commented on the fatigue that can accompany a life in the public eye. She noted that the exhaustion might be amplified by the contrast between the applause that marks peak moments on stage and the quieter periods that follow. She added that she had done what she could to support him, reflecting on their shared experiences and the efforts to manage past issues that had arisen in the media landscape.
Meanwhile, a morning television program continued to revisit Sanz’s situation, turning attention toward questions about potential financial pressures the singer might face. Some reports from Latin American media suggested that Madrid had experienced financial strain related to a trusted associate, leading to bankruptcy rumors and claims that a residence may have been put up for sale. The program emphasized that such rumors deserved careful handling and verification, and it highlighted the artist’s ongoing commitment to his career and his audience while navigating difficult personal circumstances.
