Cuban comedian Aleanys Jáuregui, known by her stage name Cuqui La Mora, recently shared an emotional video on her social media celebrating her upcoming performance in New York. In the video, recorded at the airport, Cuqui expressed her excitement and joy over this significant milestone in her career.
"Maybe for some, it's not a big deal, but for me, it is. I've been trying to make this video several times, but I get emotional and end up not finishing it. So here I am at the airport, and I decided to make the video," Cuqui began.
She continued reflecting on the challenges many Cubans face and how reaching another country can change one's perspective on seemingly unattainable dreams: "Cubans, I imagine many feel this way, when you're in Cuba, everything seems out of reach, everything looks far away, you feel like you're in a hole on another planet, you know? And when you get here, you realize everything is just there, you just have to fight to get there. And when you achieve something, no matter how small, it brings you so much joy."
Finally, she excitedly announced that she would be performing her Stand-Up comedy show in New York. "For me, this is very exciting because I remember watching movies in Cuba, you know, Broadway, the theaters, all the events they have there, the plays, and suddenly realizing that my name is going to be on the marquee of one of those theaters. I can't believe it," she said in her video, encouraging everyone not to miss the show and expressing gratitude to those who have supported and believed in her.
The reactions to the video have been overwhelmingly positive: "You deserve it, Cuqui. You are very natural, we were neighbors in Cuba, and I have always followed you"; "You deserve so many good things. Thousands of blessings to you and may you have many more happy moments like this"; "Girl, besides being a comedian, you have a beautiful spirit. You are sweet and loving. Congratulations! Believe in yourself and keep pushing forward"; "You deserve it, my girl, you are very hardworking! I hope you slowly achieve all your dreams and more!" read some of the hundreds of congratulatory messages and words of support, recognition, and celebration for her new professional achievement.
