Maluma was once again the center of attention, but this time not for a new music release, but for his physical appearance. On his 32nd birthday, celebrated on January 28th, the singer surprised everyone by appearing without his signature beard, a change that sparked immediate debate on social media. The big question about which style suits him best was answered by the person who knows him best: his partner, Susana Gomez. During a live broadcast in the middle of the celebration, the "Hawai" singer decided to ask the mother of his daughter directly. “A serious question: do you like this style or do you prefer it with a beard?” the artist asked.

Susana’s Verdict

Although Susana initially tried to remain neutral, stating that the singer looks good with any style, Maluma’s persistence led her to give a definitive answer.

With a knowing look, Gomez confessed that the clean-shaven style is currently his favorite, highlighting that this look gives him a renewed and youthful air.

Internet users’ reactions were immediate. While some agree with Susana that Maluma "looked years younger" by shaving, others miss the more rugged image his facial hair gave him. Maluma took advantage of the toast to dedicate some heartfelt words to Susana, whom he called "his wife" despite not having married. "Thank you for giving me a wonderful daughter, how lovely to share and build with you," the Colombian expressed, making it clear that, with or without a beard, he is going through one of the best moments of his personal life.
