During a lively appearance at Rosalía's Lux Tour in Los Angeles, Karol G stirred up a storm on social media by sharing a personal story in the "confession booth of La Perla." The Colombian singer recounted an incident where an unnamed ex left her stranded in the airport waiting area on the day they planned to travel together for her birthday. While she didn't drop any names, speculation quickly pointed towards Feid.
Karol G revealed that for four consecutive years, her then-partner found ways to avoid celebrating her birthday together. She shared with a visibly shocked Rosalía, "Every year, it was about waiting for the excuse not to be there on my birthday." The third year was an exception, but the fourth year proved to be the breaking point.
"We were all set to travel for my last birthday, suitcases packed, waiting at the airport... and then, nothing. Tell me you've had some experiences, but not being left in the airport lounge," Karol G recounted. Rosalía was quick to react, "No, never. For me, that's quite unforgivable."
The incident marked the end of that chapter for Karol G: "I took my bags down and stayed. I got off that flight and completely stepped away." Rosalía concluded with a message that resonated with the crowd: "Today, we celebrate better than any birthday because you got rid of that pearl."
Despite not naming anyone, internet sleuths quickly connected the dots, with many pointing fingers at Feid. The Colombian artist celebrated his 33rd birthday in Tokyo on August 19, 2025, with no sign of Karol G in the pictures. Adding to the intrigue, Karol G had previously expressed excitement about visiting Japan for the first time during her Tropicoqueta album promotion, yet she never shared any photos from the trip. Furthermore, August 13, 2025, marked the last time Feid interacted with Karol G's social media posts, after which their public exchanges ceased.
In an additional twist, Karol G's appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast added fuel to the fire. When asked about the biggest lie a man told her, she replied bluntly, "With a location, but I'm talking miles and miles and oceans, like I'm here and he's on another continent... It happened to me." Fans were quick to link this to Feid's trip to Japan.
The split between Karol G and Feid was confirmed by TMZ in January 2026 and later addressed by Karol G in a Playboy interview on April 8, 2026, where she simply stated, "I had the courage to leave." Some users speculate that these public confessions might be part of the marketing strategy for her upcoming TropiTour, kicking off on July 24 in Chicago, reminiscent of how Tusa followed her breakup with Anuel AA.
Neither Karol G nor Feid have confirmed or denied whether he is the "pearl" in question, but the topic remains a trending discussion on social media worldwide.
