Georgina Rodríguez has once again captured the public's attention, this time due to a viral video where she promotes a makeup product for a well-known brand. Beyond her skill in contouring her features, what truly stood out was her approach to speaking English. With a distinct Spanish accent and a mix of Spanish words in phrases like "My cheeks están esculpidas," the model made it clear that language is not a barrier for her to connect with her audience.
Although the confidence of Cristiano Ronaldo's partner shines through in the video, some viewers criticized her English proficiency. Comments like “This woman has more than enough resources to speak perfect English” and “She doesn't even try to learn real English, iconic,” surfaced among users.
Conversely, there were plenty who defended her. “Those with money speak English however they want,” remarked one follower, suggesting that Georgina's status doesn't require a mastery of the language. Another user added, “With the money she has, do you think she cares what we think about her English?”
Some voices applauded the model's fearless attitude towards speaking English. “I admire Gio for not being embarrassed to speak; I wish I were that confident,” said one fan. These comments highlight the confidence Georgina exudes, as she seems to enjoy life without worrying too much about external opinions. “I love Georgina, she lives without a care,” mentioned another fan.
Humorous remarks also emerged, such as one that joked, “No afternun or hallou, here you speak Spanish,” recalling the famous phrase by Ana María Polo from the show "Caso Cerrado."
However, some followers pointed out the double standard in judging language proficiency. “When foreigners try to speak our language, mispronouncing words and with their accent, we applaud. Why criticize when a Hispanic person speaks English and it's not perfect?” pondered a user, sparking a debate on the prejudices faced by those who speak English as a second language.
Ultimately, Georgina Rodríguez's video not only served to promote a product but also highlighted the cultural and social impact of her persona. Beyond her English or Spanglish, Cristiano Ronaldo’s partner shows that what truly matters is daring to be authentic and not letting criticism shake you. As one follower put it: “Gio represents me speaking English.”
