On Saturday night, Emilia Mernes delivered a stirring performance at the Movistar Arena, drawing a crowd of both celebrities and devoted fans. Notably among them was China Suárez, who enthusiastically shared highlights from the show on her social media platforms. At one poignant moment, Suárez couldn’t contain her emotions as Mernes dedicated a song to her father.
Months earlier, when Mernes released “Guerrero,” she disclosed that the song was a tribute to her father, currently battling cancer for the second time. Therefore, when she took the stage at the Movistar Arena, she took a moment to express gratitude to her father, her beacon of strength and resilience. “I want to thank my dad for being my ultimate inspiration and for embodying courage in the face of adversity. I love you,” Mernes conveyed, her father appearing on screen and reciprocating the affectionate gesture. She concluded her heartfelt message by expressing a wish for her song to embrace those undergoing similar trials: “With this song, I hope to extend a virtual hug to all those facing similar battles. Know that you are loved dearly.”
Throughout the evening, Suárez kept her followers updated on her enchantment with the show. “God exists, and she’s a woman,” she exclaimed on Instagram, capturing Mernes’s powerful performance. Another poignant moment she shared was when Mernes performed “Uno de los dos” alongside Miranda! During Mernes’s tribute to her father, Suárez captured the touching scene of her eldest daughter, Rufina, embracing her, both visibly moved by the moment.
Suárez, in her Instagram story, added the word “Warrior” alongside a video clip, adorned with emotive and heart emojis, encapsulating the raw emotion of the performance. After the show, Suárez ventured backstage to commend Mernes and her team, including her dear friend Juan Manuel Cativa, responsible for Mernes’s stunning hairdo.
Later, Suárez delighted her followers with a snapshot of her younger daughter, Magnolia, posing with Mernes. Reflecting on the passage of time, she juxtaposed this image with one from years past, showcasing the special moments both Magnolia and she had shared with the talented singer.
