Her parents gave her every opportunity and she took it. Lots of kids don’t take advantage of opportunities given to them. This girl is going to be successful for a very long time. God bless her

As a Latina, Im proud to see a woman take up the family traditions of singing rancheras. She’s filling up the shoes of full on Mexican legends. Keep killing it girl!

I went see her father perform in Durango Mexico last year and he brought her out to do a duet. The crowd went absolutely crazy!

I noticed how mom corrected her 5:55 with the “Don Vicente Fernandez” remining her the respect for her elderly ☺️. Shows the reason she is very successful 😊

Her grandfather, Antonio Aguilar, was a revolutionary legend. Is awesome to see her keeping that revolution for women, for young artists, for Mexican Americans, for Mexico.

Play her music all day everyday, I’m not Mexican. I’m from the Dominican Republic and I can’t wait for her to have a concert in nj or NYC so I can attend..

My mother tells me the story of when her father was born. She was a nurse then and the hospital was a buzz.
I've seen his daughter grow up and she is phenomenal!!
Kudos for spotlighting her ❤️

Her rendition of La Llorona gets me every time! I haven’t heard her speak before, she has a bright mind and humble heart. So proud of her journey

[maliroa]

People judge her saying she had it so easy bc everything was given to her yet they forget how many celebrity children fail to take the opportunities given to them. She's a smart, beautiful, talented lady and people are just hating. I love her dad's music. I feel he's underrated by the regional music fans.

As a Mexican American Woman I am so proud to see her blossom. I am 33 and saw her begin her career as a child . As her family was a stamp in our family, we always listen to the Aguilars <3


Que orgullo ser Mexicana y mirar que otras mujeres jovenes y ninas siguan pasos antiguos de nuestras culturas <3
