Rosalía captivated the United States with El mal querer and Malamente, the song that catapulted her onto the international stage. In 2022, with the album Motomami, released on March 18, she showed she was here to stay. The Catalan singer has made her first appearances on American television, starting with The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, who admitted being a fan.
Fallon struggled to pronounce the Spanish star’s name. After showing off the cover of Motomami – censored, as she appears nude and covering her body with both hands – she tried to explain the meaning of the word, as she has been doing on Twitter for days.
