Overview

• Javier Milei presented his new book at Buenos Aires’ Movistar Arena and performed a set of rock and pop covers alongside a self-styled presidential band.
• On Mirtha Legrand’s show, Gladys “La Bomba Tucumana” said she felt defrauded and ashamed, and actress Valentina Bassi called the spectacle pathetic while citing unmet disability commitments.
• Event organizers and the presidential press office rejected unconfirmed internal claims that session musicians or prerecorded assistance bolstered the band’s performance.
• Senior officials, including Patricia Bullrich and other ministers, attended as Milei paired the music with a combative message and urged supporters ahead of legislative elections.
• The showcase came after internal strains in La Libertad Avanza, including José Luis Espert’s resignation and recent setbacks, as critics linked the performance to perceived neglect of economic and social hardships.
