Isis Sierra, sister of the Cuban reggaeton artist Chocolate MC, has addressed recent criticisms for allegedly not publicly supporting her brother following his arrest in Miami on April 28. Currently pregnant, Sierra took to Instagram Live to clarify that she is fully aware of her brother's situation and is in constant communication with him, despite not posting about it on social media.
"I'm fully informed. I've been talking to him all day," Sierra stated, responding to those questioning her absence of public solidarity messages for her brother. The Cuban native emphasized that her social media platforms serve a different purpose: "My social media is for making money, and dollars are necessary," she explained, highlighting her priority to provide for her family.
Isis also pushed back against the negative comments circulating online, urging her critics to focus on their own lives instead: "Stop gossiping and focus on your own life." Her words found support from various online users, including Cuban singer La Diosa de Cuba, who defended her with a comment on a page that shared the video.
"Leave that woman alone already. She has to move on; she has kids to support. People have such bad habits, God!" wrote the singer, joining the chorus of voices backing Sierra's right to live her life without being judged.
The reggaeton artist, whose real name is Yosvanis Arismín Sierra Hernández, was apprehended in Miami after several days of being unaccounted for. Available reports indicate that his arrest took place on April 28, and he remains in custody.
