Torres said that the singer, whose real name is Francisca Viveros Barradas, is out of danger and that "it's going very well."

The artist needed this resting time after an extensive concert tour in which she is located; However, according to Torres, it feels pretty good.

The artist, who was first in intensive care, could be discharged in the next few hours, although it is not something that is confirmed, Torres said.

Paquita la del Barrio has been characterized throughout his career for having a frank and direct style in his songs that have almost always been inspired by spite and how to respond to men. Her unmistakable style has made her a defender of women and a pioneer of a feminist movement that, in her case, has gone beyond a fashion.
