Ballet Experts Question Rosalía's En Pointe Feat on Saturday Night Live

During her Saturday Night Live rendition of "Reliquia," Rosalía captivated audiences by seemingly singing for nearly four minutes while en pointe, raising eyebrows among ballet experts who suspect she had some form of support. Leo Sorribes, the director of Ballet de Catalunya, expressed to El Periódico that maintaining such a still position is unfeasible without some movement, implying her legs may have been secured. However, he acknowledged her authenticity, stating, "She has never pretended to be something she isn't." Chase Johnsey, co-founder of Ballet de Barcelona, suggested a possible stool-like aid but commended the performance for enhancing ballet's visibility. David Campos, a former ballet company director, asserted, "Is there a trick in the video? Obviously!" Fans also engaged in discussions on Reddit, with some speculating about hidden support under her tutu. The "Reliquia" performance is available to watch on SNL.
