"Hypersexual reggaeton singer Karol G to perform at Vatican concert"

A celebrity who regularly performs pornographically for reggaeton music videos will be singing at the upcoming Vatican concert “Grace for the World.”

Karol G, one of the most popular singers of reggaeton music, a lowbrow Latin genre known for hypersexual lyrics and videos, is slated to perform for the Vatican concert in St. Peter’s Square on September 13, a Colombian outlet reported.

“Grace for the World,” a celebratory closing of the third World Meeting on Human Fraternity, is being billed as a first of its kind concert “where icons and light unite humanity through music and hope.” The event will feature drone and light displays “inspired by the masterpieces of the Sistine Chapel,” according to the concert’s event page.

Andrea Bocelli and Pharrell Williams, a songwriter who has produced and performed a long list of sexually explicit songs, are headlining the concert lineup, which along with Karol G will include John Legend, Teddy Swims, Voices of Fire Gospel Choir, Clipse, Angélique Kidjo, Jelly Roll, and BamBam.

While several of the performers are controversial picks for a Vatican-hosted concert, Karol G’s public presentation is particularly at odds with Catholic, Christian ethics. Her performances and especially her music videos typically involve pornographic gestures and dress, which tend to be especially pronounced in her genre. Even in appearances on popular shows like The Tonight Show, she is so scantily clad that she is virtually half-nude.

Pharrell rivals Karol G as an unbecoming choice for a Vatican concert headliner. He has produced, written and performed a great deal of sexually provocative and otherwise immoral music.
