L.A. based Latina pop star BeckyG is engaged to soccer player Sebastian Lletget


BeckyG has shared the news of her engagement with soccer player Sebastian Lletget.


The "Fulanito" singer, 25, surprised fans on Friday when she announced on Instagram that she was engaged to longtime boyfriend and soccer star Lletget.


"Our spot forever. 🤍," Becky G wrote alongside the post, which included photos of 30-year-old Lletget proposing on one knee, the couple hugging and a selfie where they ecstatically show off her rock.



In her recent interview with Times, she said, "I’m very passionate about having grown up in L.A.” “But metaphorically speaking, Hollywood is like the upside-down. Nobody dances, it’s all about who’s at whose table. I’d rather throw a carne asada at my house!”




“In the beginning, I wanted to be a rapper like Tupac but who could also sing songs on my guitar like Taylor Swift. And I could do it in English, Spanish or Spanglish because, you know, I’m pocha,” she adds, making light fun of her own waxing and waning fluency in Spanish. “But [people] were like, ‘How do you go from Tupac to Taylor Swift?’ Only Becky would.”




Even in L.A., where Hispanic communities constitute half of the city’s population, Latinos are often rendered invisible in the parallel universe outside their enclaves, and those who “make it out” are presumed to exist for the service of wealthier (and whiter) people. Yet 10 years into her music career, the Latin Grammy-nominated pop star has harnessed her power by making it back in.
