Singer Camila Fernández, daughter of the iconic Alejandro Fernández, finds herself in the midst of controversy after making a mistake while singing the Mexican National Anthem.
The incident took place on Saturday night at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, just before the boxing match between Saúl “El Canelo” Álvarez and Puerto Rican fighter Edgar Berlanga.
Fernández stepped into the ring dressed in an elegant olive-green gala outfit, adorned with gold buttons and a golden bow tie.
Expectations were high, as this wasn’t the first time a member of the Fernández family had been entrusted with the important task of singing the anthem at a “Canelo” fight.

Instead of singing the correct line: “Mas si osare un extraño enemigo, profanar con su planta tu suelo,” Camila Fernández sang:
“Mas si osare un extraño enemigo, profanar con su planta tu tierra.”
Even ‘Canelo’ Reacted
The alteration prompted an immediate reaction from “Canelo,” who looked around the ring, seemingly to confirm if others had noticed the mistake.
Camila herself acknowledged the error, bowing her head and making a frustrated expression after finishing the performance.
Social media users didn’t hesitate to voice their opinions about the mistake made by Vicente Fernández’s granddaughter.
“They always mess it up,” “It seemed like an uncomfortable moment. Mistakes in the National Anthem always get attention, especially at such big events,” some commented.

The incident has sparked a debate, as the Law on the National Emblem, Flag, and Anthem stipulates that any alteration or misuse of national symbols, including the modification of the anthem’s lyrics, constitutes an administrative offense.
For this reason, it’s believed that Camila could face legal repercussions for altering the lyrics of the Mexican National Anthem.
This infraction could be punishable with a fine of up to 25,000 pesos or even imprisonment ranging from three days to one year, according to El Universal.
Although such penalties are uncommon in these cases, Camila Fernández’s error places her in a potentially delicate situation.
