“I

remain confident that such a despicable
act never happened..." |

“Recently,
a malicious and false rumor has been spread with
the only purpose of affecting my relationship
with the Mexican community and jeopardizing my
reputation as a serious and responsible artist.
The rumor sustains that I allegedly burned a Mexican
flag in a recent performance in this country.”
“This
has never occurred. Under any circumstances,
would I commit such a barbaric act, first, because
I have great respect for the Mexican people
and all nationalities of the World and I am
incapable of showing a lack of respect by committing
such a deplorable act. A country and its people
are respected in the same manner that one respects
God and family. Secondly, it is physically impossible
for this to have occurred since I have not visited
Mexico since March 2005, due to the demands
of my work schedule, which has included among
other things recording and launching of my latest
album, Barrio Fino en Directo; the filming of
my movie Straight From the Barrio, launching
of my new line of clothing with Reebok and my
radio program On Fuego.”
“I
ask that the people of Mexico remain confident
that such a despicable act never occurred and
not allow such mean-founded individuals to affect
the great affection we have for each other.
In the near future, I will be visiting your
beautiful country to share in your genuine hospitality.
Thank you for you support and affection,”
expressed reggaetón idol Daddy Yankee.
