Each one had his name ❤️

⠀⠀⠀⠀

“𝑄𝑢𝑒𝑟í𝑎 𝑑𝑒𝑐𝑖𝑟 𝑝𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑟𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑠.” 🔥

A mí también me gusta que las digas, 𝗧𝗼𝗺 😏 Me haces ver fuegos artificiales cuando lo haces 🤭 😍💓

Como los que he visto justo hoy por fiestas que se celebran cerca de mi ciudad 🥹💖

Increíble que hasta ver unos fuegos artificiales me hacen pensar y recordar a 𝗧𝗼𝗺 💘🤍💝

Cada uno tenía su nombre ❤️

It’s a cliché thing to say, but I think that the records I made before, all the decision that I made before, every kind of frustration, it’s all led me up to this moment where I finally feel really, really comfortable. I have the luxury— and I did on this record— of time, time to make mistakes, and with that, to experiment. Also, it’s one thing going into a record with the hope of experimenting, and another thing, working. And that definitely, as you’re going through the press with the record, that helps with momentum and confidence. You dare to dream one day, and suddenly the record starts to be in a more experimental phase, and it finds its way back to pop. It definitely gave me a lot of confidence, this record. There’s quite a few songs— and Lemonade being one of them— where I wouldn’t have, as I started off to make the record, I wouldn’t have necessarily anticipated it sounding like that. I think that’s always a positive thing as an artist, to push yourself.

Last night, one of the most historic concerts recorded in Mexico City was held. Usually, it is said that fans surrender to their artist, but this time the dynamic turned out to be different: Louis Tomlinson surrendered to his Mexican fans.

The British singer who began his career in a British reality show, with the only dream of becoming an artist, gave the biggest show of his career in Mexico. There were approximately 70,000 attendees who gathered at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez to consecrate Tomlinson as a soloist and to make it clear that Mexican fans are the best in the world.

Louis Tomlinson began his steps as part of the One Direction group, that boyband that left us for almost a decade, breaking the hearts of millions. Its members did not cease in their search for stardom and artistic expression. The aforementioned singer became a soloist, managing to win over his well-known followers, and many others.

Tomlinson has a special and important connection with Mexico. He has visited our country on several occasions, being part of something that we can call "The Mexican Dream". Louis has lived every possible Mexican experience: from taking a Tecate Light in a can, traveling in "combi" to transport himself from one place to another, or to stepping on the Mexa ground in the middle of the Dry Law and election season.

For Mexican Louises, the artist could well be their president. They constantly show an unconditional love for the native of Doncaster in the United Kingdom. From that time when he chose our country as part of his exclusive tour to present his documentary (there were only three nations), until when he first appeared at the Pepsi Center WTC in the capital with three dates declared sold out. A pact was sealed between Louis and the Mexicans.

Now, Louis Tomlinson chose Mexico City to perform the biggest concert of his career, but not only that, but he also chose it as the indicated show to be filmed by an impressive production team, which would broadcast it live to all corners of the world.

After that livestreaming event was announced, all the eyes of the world were on Mexico and Mexican fans behaved to the height. Able to have an understanding and an overwhelming union on social networks, they also demonstrated this ability by being together in the same place.

The "Kill My Mind" moment was a proof of this. It was on that occasion that the fans showed an absolute synchronization with the culture of Louis Tomlinson. The lights of the cell phones of all the attendees shone up and down to the rhythm of the song. Although this practice was born in Chile and was transported to other countries, it was in Mexico that it reached its peak and its absolute resolution.

Likewise, the Mexicans did not disappoint by singing loudly, clearly, and without forgetting the lyrics, the moment: "For every question why, you were my because" from the song "Walls". And that phrase gave the title to the worldwide broadcast event that took this concert to homes around the world.

On the other hand, Mexican fans organized to paint the sea of people with the colors of the flag of Mexico. Something that was achieved perfectly during the song "She Is Beauty We Are World Class". A sublime moment that managed to excite the singer: "That shit with the lights was fucking incredible, thank you for that, I will never, ever forget it, thank you."

The emotion of the British singer was totally noticeable. With his voice choppy, he confessed that he was nervous about this presentation, not only because it was something important in his career, but because for days he had been a little "croaky" in his throat.

However, Louis Tomlinson gave everything on stage, singing his hymns as a soloist, such as "Holding On A Heartache", "Out of My System", "Night Changes" - a song by One Direction -, or "Bigger Than Me".

"You are something out of this world. I'm trying to keep my feet on the ground. Seriously, after all this. Thank you. I wish I had more words— well, I do, but right now I just want to keep singing before I burst into tears. Thank you, thank you, thank you, I love you," Tomlinson said.

In the end, Louis Tomlinson closed his concert of just over an hour and a half with "Silver Tongues" in the middle of fireworks and a rain of eye-catching papers that many fans desperately took to take home.

This concert left several unforgettable memories. 70,000 people in one place, all of them unconditional fans of the artist. A show that was broadcast live to everyone, the consecration of a fandom that conquered the media and social networks of many countries, but above all the confession of Louis Tomlinson in which he said that he will dream forever of tonight:

New article & videos: "Eddie Redmayne spoke to Infobae about his transformation into 'The Jackal', the elusive hitman".

Details of a classic suspense film from the 1970s that returns in a modernized format for television

By Ester Palomino, for Infobae Argentina, 9 de Nov. 2024

"More than 50 years after the premiere of the famous film The Day of the Jackal (1973) , a political thriller that has become a benchmark of suspense, directed by Fred Zinnemann, a new version of the story comes to television.

The ten-episode series, written by Ronan Bennett (creator of Top Boy ) and directed by Brian Kirk, stars Eddie Redmayne as the cold, calculating sniper and Lashana Lynch as the ruthless MI6 agent trying to stop him.

The Jackal , based on the novel by Frederick Forsyth, premiered on November 7 in the United Kingdom. For Latin American audiences, the production will be available from November 15 on Disney+ . The first five episodes will be released that day and then a new chapter will arrive every week.

The brutal murder of a prostituted woman in Argentina is no longer being reported as a “femicide” after it was discovered that her killers did not identify as male.

Brenda Córdoba, 28, was murdered on November 10 of 2021 in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Balvanera. Grisly surveillance camera footage released by police during the investigation into her death showed Córdoba being approached by what appeared to be a man in a white hoodie and face mask. The man circled around to her back before grabbing her in a headlock and stabbing her multiple times in the chest.

Córdoba, who was dropped into a puddle of her own blood, was initially found alive by passersby who had attempted to intervene in the stabbing and rushed to hospital. She died as a result of her injuries days later. 

Additional security camera footage was uncovered in which the individual who attacked Córdoba was seen leaving the area with someone else. 

Police began disseminating images taken from the footage in October of this year along with a call for assistance from the public to identify the two suspects after difficulty in finding leads.

On November 2, two individuals were taken into custody after neighbors saw the call for leads and photos from the crime scene and alerted police. But while law enforcement officials had initially put out a call for two men, both suspects involved in Córdoba’s murder were found to be transgender. 

Alex Maia Sam Estela, a trans-identified male, is believed to have been the one who stabbed Córdoba, while his accomplice, Christian Santiago Machado Abad, another trans-identified male, is currently considered an accomplice. Some local media reports refer to Abad as a “transvestite,” differentiating him from Estela, who is consistently identified as a “trans woman.” 

The motive for Córdoba’s murder is believed to have been a territorial dispute, in which she was targeted for “working” on a street corner that had been claimed by Abad and Estela. She is known to have had a hostile interaction with Abad prior to her murder.

While Córdoba’s slaying has been reported as being considered a femicide under Argentinian law for the past year, the revelation of the gender identity of her alleged killers has resulted in that classification being dropped.

According to Infobae, the case file was initially treated as a femicide due to the fact the attacker was wearing male clothing and so was believed to be a man. But since the identities of the two suspects have been revealed, media is no longer referring to the slaying as a femicide.

Femicide in Argentina is considered a crisis, with one woman being murdered by a man every 25 hours on average. 

In 2012, Argentinian lawmakers amended the criminal code to recognize femicide as an aggravated form of homicide. The femicide provision was defined broadly as “a crime against a woman when the act is perpetrated by a man and gender violence is mediated.” 

Trans-identified males can be included as victims of femicide in Argentina, but also have a separate provision for “transfemicide.”

Earlier this year, a prominent trans-identified male activist was murdered by his boyfriend in the country’s Santa Fe province. Alejandra Ironici, 45, was the first person in Argentina to legally change his gender identity. Ironici’s 32-year-old partner, has been charged aggravated femicide as well as transfemicide.

Córdoba’s case bears striking resemblance to one recently reported out of Spain.

In October, Reduxx revealed that a man who abused his female partner had avoided charges of gender-based violence after it was learned he had begun to identify as a woman.

Gender-based violence is a specific charge which exists in Spain to classify male violence against women. It was introduced after feminist activists in the nation pointed out the need for a law to address the pervasive issue of sex-based violence perpetrated by men against women. In addition to being a unique classification, the charge comes with tailored protections for female victims, such as the ability to have the abuser removed from the home.
