The Senate session was postponed for half an hour so Erasmo Catarino could sing "La Manzanita"
The extraordinary session of the Senate had to be postponed after Erasmo Catarino began singing “La Manzanita.”
As part of the welcome for the new Morena legislator, the Senate of the Republic was temporarily transformed into a palenque (a dance hall) so the singer could sing his famous song before addressing the agenda.
Former Academy participant Erasmo Catarino was sworn in as Senator for Chiapas, representing the PVEM (Mexican Party). The Guerrero singer, winner of La Academia in 2005, takes office following the leave of absence of Senator Luis Armando Melgar. Ttttssssssssss 😬

Although at first the rest of the benches didn't understand what was happening in the chamber, as Erasmo got into the swing of things, all the senators began to follow the chorus of the songs, taking advantage of the fact that there wasn't much to address on the legislative agenda.
Erasmo Catarino will host the Senate sessionsWitnesses claim that upon hearing the first chords, Damián Zepeda ordered another round of coffee, while Noroña stood up from his seat to applaud, "although ideologically I don't agree with the lyrics," he clarified.
I remember Erasmo Catarino singing "La Manzanita" by Los Tigres del Norte. I've loved that song ever since. Hahaha . pic.twitter.com/OSlaHNKQhN

No one knows if this will be the Senate's routine starting today, prior to the agenda for the appointment of consuls to the Cayman Islands and Botswana.
There was a moment when all the senators even went up to the podium to sing in unison, with Lilly Téllez being the one who moved the most to the lyrics:
In case you missed it: this was the moment Lilly Téllez's megaphone cable was cut.“She’s falling in love because she’s already ripe.”
