Carlos Rivera addressed the Natalia Jimenez controversy. The Spanish singer received harsh criticism after images circulated of her using an ambulance with lights and sirens to arrive at Rivera's birthday celebration.

It's good that she explained what was happening," he said. “Afterwards, once there was an explanation, well, people will know what to do, but obviously there were logical reasons,” said Carlos Rivera. The party host also clarified that he didn't know what mode of transportation each guest would use, but emphasized that situations like this teach a lesson: “You learn from everything, right? This is also for us all to learn what we should and shouldn't do.” What were Natalia Jimenez's reasons?
