Of all the people who have experienced unusual situations during this blackout, Sofia Vergara cannot take the prize for the most critical. The Colombian actress attended the Platino Awards gala a day earlier and the blackout caught her in the Spanish capital. She was held for eight hours, although she was able to enjoy one of the most important luxury hotels in the country.
She shared her experience on her personal Instagram account, where far from complaining, she showed how lucky she was for the situation she had to live through. “The weirdest day in Madrid, eight and a half hours of a blackout trapped on a terrace but with my favorite people. Sadly we had to cancel the beautiful Toty Europe event we had prepared for all the press and influencers,” she wrote in a carousel of images.

Sofia Vergara takes advantage of Spain’s blackout in a luxury hotel
“I’ll be back soon. I’m happy to have spent time with the Toty Europa team of beautiful girls,” she concluded in her post. In the snapshots, she can be seen enjoying various dishes of ham, glasses of wine, pasta and the best views of the Spanish capital. Perhaps, in this way, panic is less likely to set in when a nationwide blackout occurs.
The singer even took advantage of the situation to promote the brand that brought her to Madrid with a post about her ‘lockdown’ during the blackout. “8 hours in the sun in Madrid but completely protected because I had my Toty Europa in my purse and calm because of how amazing they took care of us,” she insisted in another post published on Meta’s social network.
Although some have not looked kindly on this attitude: “Spain without light and you thinking about uploading photos to Instagram. Ole you, flower!”, the vast majority have praised the tone with which the actress has taken it: “The blackout has been great in Madrid. It has served to leave the phones parked, go out in the sun and socialize. And you are the Queen of Madrid”

Davis wrong to box Paul? ‘No fighter would turn it down’
The boxing world is coming to terms with Gervonta Davis boxing Jake Paul in an exhibition later this year.Paul entered professional boxing with a vast following on social media. Still essentially a novice pro, he might have lost to Tommy Fury but has beaten big-name MMA fighters in boxing, outpointed a 58-year-old Mike Tyson and most recently defeated a former world champion in Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. However when he meets Davis in November he'll be boxing a current world champion who's 30 years old. The complication is that Davis is a lightweight, and Paul boxes at cruiserweight and above.That is a significant difference. Paul is about six foot one inch tall and around 200lbs, Davis just over five foot five and he boxes at 135lbs. Spreaker This content is provided by Spreaker, which may be using cookies and other […]

It's an improvement."It was a tough match. I had chances for it to be straight sets. Ajla was tough, I felt like she was getting so many balls back. I'm happy to get through to the next round. I had so many chances. I was like, 'eventually […]

Jogadores do Palmeiras comemoram gol no Allianz Parque (Cesar Greco/Palmeiras)Zinho, mesmo após o Palmeiras investir pesado em reforços, não avalia que o elenco do Verdão atingiu o patamar do plantel do Flamengo. Na visão do ex-jogador, uma diferença crucial é determinante para a superioridade atrelada ao Rubro-Negro.
