Tito Fuentes Reemerges to Detail Induced Coma, Recovery After Stepping Away From Molotov

He ties his health collapse to decades of addiction, now prioritizing therapy and art.

Overview

  • In a Playboy México interview, Fuentes said a surgical complication led doctors to keep him in an induced coma for nearly three days.
  • He attributed the crisis to more than 30 years of drug and alcohol abuse that he says resulted in about 11 surgeries and other complications.
  • The musician appeared visibly thinner with difficulty speaking, noting ongoing recovery and a strict approach to diet, including cutting sugar.
  • He said therapy and visual art have become central to his rehabilitation, with projects such as Art Bank keeping him active offstage.
  • Jay de la Cueva has continued performing in his place with Molotov, and Fuentes says he will consider a return only when fully ready.
