The host reacted live to the news of the death of the singer from Patricio Rey and his Redonditos de Ricota, but her lack of knowledge on the subject left her in check
The death of Indio Solari at 77 years old shocked the Argentine music world this Friday. Throughout the day, artists, journalists, and public figures expressed their sadness over the passing of one of the key figures in the history of national rock.
However, amid the media coverage, a comment made by Nati Jota during a live broadcast ended up generating an unexpected controversy on social media.
The situation occurred on Sería Increíble, the show she hosts with Tomás Kirzner, when they were analyzing the news of the death of the former leader of Patricio Rey and his Redonditos de Ricota.
While reviewing the musician's career, Nati Jota pointed out that Solari had retired from the stage in 2017, although he remained involved in various activities.
"He had retired from the stage in 2017, but he stayed active until his last days", the host expressed while receiving information from the production through her earpiece.
The observation was quickly nuanced by Tomás Kirzner, who tried to clarify the concept. "Well... lately he wasn't that active in the sense of giving shows, his performances", he commented.

Not wanting to let the moment pass, Nati tried to explain what she meant with her comment. "Active internally, I suppose. In his personal life", she responded.
The exchange was enough for numerous users to share the clip on various platforms and start debating the way the news was addressed.
What caused the most anger from Nati Jota's unfortunate phrases during this day was what she stated in a conversation with Noe Custodio: "It's a bummer that one of the good ones dies, with so many that aren't (good)".
The controversy grew so much on social media that the host of Olga had to come forward and said on her social media: "What provokes indignation is my existence, but we'll talk about that another day."

This caused even more outrage because, far from acknowledging her mistake and apologizing, she positioned herself as a victim again. As a result, the wave of criticism multiplied. "Oh look, the center of the world, thinks the world orbits around her, girl you're nobody," "You're literally the living representation of a pick desperate for male approval, it's hard to like you Nati," and "Dude, Indio died, one of the 5 most important idols in Argentine history. Can you stop talking about yourself for at least 5 minutes?" users retorted.
