Widow twerks on cardboard cutout of dead husband at his funeral
In an unbelievable video, a widow twerks against a cardboard cutout of her dead husband - just next to his open casket. A reggaeton singer hired for the funeral provided the upbeat music the grieving woman danced to while funeral-goers cheered her on. Dressed in black, the widow is captured rubbing her behind on the life-size printout of her late partner in Peru. Onlookers are heard whooping and cheering her on at the funeral. And even the sad event's entertainment - a singer known as El Cangri del Callao - was egging on the widow during his performance. He even encourages fellow mourners to join in the raunchy dance at the wake. The singer later shared the unbelievable clip on his Instagram page, where it went viral with 4.3 million views and thousands of comments. One local said: 'Hi bro, I'm going to die on 23 July. 'Are you available?' Another added: 'They are very young, but in my time we cried at funerals.' 'Widow finds five new loves... at the wake', someone joked. And: 'We can see how that stupid music makes people stupid.' One other comment pointed out how a 'farewell should be joyful, not sad'. While a fellow performer said: 'I've performed funerals and wakes, but always from a very different tone to what this video shows. 'I've never had the opportunity to capture a farewell from such a luminous, vivid perspective.' Meanwhile, a mere few days ago, the haunting moment a teen gave a tearful funeral eulogy to her slain mother and stepdad that later made her the prime suspect in their murder was captured. Sarah Grace Patrick, 17, now faces two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault in connection with the shootings of Kristin Brock, 41, and James Brock, 45. The chilling video of Patrick's eulogy shows the teen in a pale blue dress, standing before mourners at the lectern of the Catalyst Church in Carollton, Georgia. She said: 'I just wanted to say goodbye to my mum and James since we never got the chance to.' Patrick called her mother a 'beautiful kind soul' and told mourners she'd always be her 'sunshine'. Now, the same speech that drew tears from the crowd is drawing scrutiny from law enforcement.

Outrageous moment widow TWERKS against her late husband's open coffin during his funeral
Funerals are traditionally known as places of sorrow and solemn reflections. But one in Peru took a jaw-dropping turn when a widow was caught on camera twerking against a life-sized cut-out of her late husband leaning against his open coffin. Dressed in all black, the woman was seen gyrating her behind on the cardboard tribute as funeral guests clapped, whooped and cheered her on. The gathering turned into a full-on concert as reggaeton singer, El Cangri del Callao, a self-described 'wake entertainer', graced the occasion with party hits. At one point, the performer even encouraged other guests to stomp the dancefloor and shake off their sorrow. The bizarre send-off, which took place on July 6, was all caught on camera. El Cangri later posted the clip on Instagram, where it racked up 4.3 million views and nearly 8,000 comments. Social media hilariously chimed in with one comment saying: 'Hi bro, I'm going to die on 23 July. Are you available?' Another added: 'They are very young, but in my time we cried at funerals.' A third joked, 'Widow finds five new loves… at the wake.' Others weren't so impressed. One commentator fumed: 'We can see how that stupid music makes people stupid.' But not everyone was clutching their pearls. Another social media user wrote: 'I've performed funerals and wakes, but always from a very different tone to what this video shows. 'I've never had the opportunity to capture a farewell from such a luminous, vivid perspective.'

MYKE TOWERS RELEASES ISLAND BOYZ, HIS MOST PERSONAL AND VISIONARY ALBUM
A 23-track project that captures the artist's Caribbean essence and marks a new creative chapter MIAMI , July 17, 2025 /CNW/ -- Myke Towers presents Island Boyz, an album that doesn't aim to fit into any mold, but rather to create its own language. With 23 tracks blending reggaetón, dancehall, dembow, Latin R&B, and afrobeats, this project reaffirms his command over global urban sound and offers a deeper look into an artist in full reinvention. Island Boyz centers his island roots—not just as a Puerto Rican, but as a Caribbean creator with a broad outlook and a fearless approach to risk. From the introspection of " Expectativas," to the radio-driven power of " Soleao" featuring Quevedo —currently the #1 Latin song on Spanish radio to tracks like " No Hay Break" with Omah Lay or " No Quiere Flores" with Gabito Ballesteros, the project connects a wide range of influences without losing cohesion. " Tengo Celos," included in the Island Boyz tracklist, is the album's focus single and is expected to be one of the biggest radio hits of the coming months. " I wanted it to sound like where I'm from, but also like what I'm living right now. Island Boyz is the realest thing I've done to date," said Myke Towers about the creative process behind the album. The lineup of collaborators— Quevedo, De La Ghetto, Gabito Ballesteros, Manuel Turizo, Omah Lay, Ludmilla, DFZM, and iZaak —was not the result of formulas, but of artistic chemistry that amplifies the album's vision. With Island Boyz, Myke isn't chasing easy hits. He's aiming for longevity, authenticity, and sonic depth. The production, storytelling, and intention behind each track make this album a solid body of work that marks a turning point in his career. LA DESPEDIDA ft.

The Bright Side: Bad Bunny kicks off Puerto Rico residency with marathon show
Bad Bunny's marathon show in San Juan late Friday was a night of palpable emotion for the reggaeton megastar whose latest artistic endeavor brings him back to his roots. Bad Bunny's most recent tracks underscore injustices in the US Caribbean island territory, but the evening was one of celebration: a lens on Puerto Rico that focuses on its resistance, pride and joy. Bad Bunny's sweeping first concert of his three-month Puerto Rico residency was a night of palpable emotion for the megastar whose latest smash artistic endeavor brings his global stardom back to his roots. The marathon show in San Juan late Friday was flush with styles – from club beats and high-octane salsa to folkloric dance and soulful acoustics. At one point, the enormously popular Bad Bunny – born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio – appeared to pause to soak in the moment, breaking into a heartfelt smile as he gazed out at his thousands of ecstatic compatriots. Savoring the present and honoring the past is a lesson taken from the 31-year-old's sixth album "Debi Tirar Mas Fotos" ("I Should Have Taken More Photos") and a theme the residency is celebrating, with a full-throated ode to Puerto Rican heritage. The first song was previously unreleased, and there were no details on whether the track will eventually have an official drop. Some fans online speculated that perhaps he'll keep it exclusive to the residency.
