Latin pop superstar Karol G has made waves with a daring topless shoot for the latest issue of Playboy, marking her as the second major celebrity to appear on the magazine since its relaunch last year. In the striking spread, Karol strategically covers her chest with her hands while flaunting her figure in other bold poses, including a low-cut blue bra on the edge of a bed.
The 35-year-old singer is also making history off the pages, as she is set to headline Coachella on April 12 and 19—the first Latina artist ever to close the legendary festival. “I feel like it’s a show for my community, for the world, but it’s very much for me,” Karol told Playboy, adding that she consulted fellow Colombian star Sofia Vergara before accepting the shoot.
Karol, whose real name is Carolina Giraldo Navarro, has been no stranger to attention-grabbing fashion, previously turning heads in a sheer lace gown at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards. Her latest album, Tropicoqueta, released in June 2025, reached No. 3 on the US Billboard 200 and topped the US Top Latin Albums chart, cementing her status as a Latin pop powerhouse.
Despite a recent breakup from Colombian singer Feid after three years together, Karol remains focused on her career, using her Playboy feature and historic Coachella headline as platforms to celebrate her roots and inspire fans worldwide.#newsafro_
