The singer once again used the stage to deliver a political message, recalling her controversial 'How dangerous' statement

The concert that the ultra-Kirchnerist Lali Espósito had planned to give last Friday at the Aldo Cantoni Stadium in San Juan became embroiled in controversy and tension.
A bomb threat, confirmed by the local Prosecutor's Office, forced the start of the show to be delayed and prompted a large-scale security operation.
While police officers and firefighters worked to ensure there was no danger, the artist remained in the locker room and limited herself to informing through social media that the show was "delayed for security reasons."
However, at the end of the event, Lali took the opportunity to make a politically charged and didactic comment to her audience, which sparked criticism on social media.
"What happened today is why I spoke out some time ago and said: 'How dangerous. How sad violence is,'" she said from the stage, then added: "How dangerous hatred toward others is, it takes you to the worst possible place. But fortunately, love and music prevail."
Some interpreted the statement as an attempt to politically capitalize on the episode, in line with her history of public interventions and her activism in left-wing causes, moving away from entertainment and taking the show into an ideological realm.
Lali Espósito volvió a hablar en contra del Gobierno
Despite the delay and initial tension, the singer thanked the audience for "the effort of paying for their ticket," although she avoided directly addressing the seriousness of the threat and the work of the security forces that intervened so the event could take place without incident.
The show concluded with a song that Lali described as "appropriate for the situation," thus closing a night that caused more comments for her speech than for what happened on stage.
The origin of "How dangerous" and the clash with Javier Milei
During the 2023 PASO primaries, Lali Espósito remained very active on social media, constantly commenting on the political situation. After the election results were announced, she posted a blunt "How dangerous. How sad," a message that caused all kinds of reactions.
Although some celebrities came out to support her, criticism from a broad sector of the population was not long in coming. "What's dangerous is being an 11-year-old girl and going to school in the suburbs. Fool"; "Lali, it seems you're very far from a normal Argentine family home, where daily work is what puts bread on the table and where the political model of recent decades makes them poorer every day. What's dangerous is your children not eating"; "Any change is dangerous, but what's sad is people dying of hunger. What's sad is being killed for a cellphone and the perpetrator being released in 12 hours. What's sad is how drugs enter the country. What's sad is what people experience every day in the country," were some of the most notable comments.
