  • Ayllón sang “Rebeca,” the song Escribens’ father used to sing to her, prompting an emotional reaction on live television.
  • Escribens called the performance “the best gift” and thanked Ayllón, saying the singer inspired her love for música criolla.
  • Ayllón said she woke at 6 a.m. to stage the surprise and told Escribens it was to show how much she cares.
