Scandal Erupts Online as Photo of La Dura with Jorge Carlos Pajón Sparks Debate

A recent photograph featuring Cuban influencer La Dura alongside producer Jorge Carlos Pajón has ignited a major uproar on social media over the past few hours. Captured during New Year celebrations, this image was initially shared in an Instagram story by friends of the duo but was swiftly deleted. Nevertheless, it had already been saved and disseminated by influencer Un Martí To Durako.

The picture shows Pajón with his arms around La Dura's waist, burying his face into her shoulder—a gesture many interpreted as an attempt to keep their relationship, which has been an open secret for months, on the down-low.

However, the primary focus of the online commentary was not the intimacy between the two but rather La Dura's appearance. Numerous followers described her as “unrecognizable without filters.” Social media was flooded with critical remarks, with users pointing out how drastically different she appears compared to her usual Instagram images and videos, where she's often seen with a more polished look and enviable facial and body features.

Comments ranged from surprise to sarcasm: “I thought she was taller,” one user noted, while another remarked, “On social media, she's wow, but in person, not so much.” Others were more scathing: “Looks like La Dura left her filters at home,” one follower quipped.

The photo, seemingly taken at a Miami nightclub, features La Dura in a tight, shiny white dress—the same outfit she had posed in front of her mirror at home. Although the original post was removed, the buzz on social media continues to grow, with thousands of comments blending curiosity, criticism, and even mockery.

Neither La Dura nor Pajón has commented on the controversial image. However, many online are already dubbing it “the first scandal of 2026” in the Cuban influencer scene.
