At Dodger Stadium, singer Nezza performed the national anthem in Spanish, defying Dodgers organizational wishes. In a TikTok video, she shared a Dodgers employee's attempt to have her sing in English. Infused with cultural significance, Nezza's rendition aimed to honor her Dominican heritage and the recent civil unrest in Los Angeles due to ICE raids. Manager Dave Roberts commented on the situation but remained largely quiet amid ongoing protests. Nezza's decision was deeply personal and reflected a desire to connect with her community during challenging times.
In a video Nezza posted, she defied Dodgers' wishes, singing the anthem in Spanish during a game, emphasizing her cultural identity and the current unrest in LA.
Nezza expressed her shock at being told to sing in English, stating, 'But today out of all days, I just could not believe when she walked in and told me 'no.''
