The Flying Chancla Report: 25 Celebrity Reactions to the Death of Juan Gabriel

The Flying Chancla Report

Hola Chulas y Chulos. This week’s The Flying Chancla Report is dedicated to Juan Gabriel, whose death on August 28 in Santa Monica, California hit us like a chanclazo straight to the heart. He was 66 years old.

I don’t remember a time when Juan Gabriel’s music wasn’t a part of my life and that makes me feel blessed because dammit he made some beautiful music: the kind of music that could make you spontaneously dance, cry and have all the feels.

I remember being elementary school age and singing along to “Inocente Pobre Amigo” as it blared from our record player speakers and crying my eyes out. What the heck did I know about love and betrayal at that age? Nothing, but Juan Gabriel made me channel the emotions he sang about and I felt powerful.

And just like that El Divo de Juárez is gone, but not soon to be forgotten. Read these touching tributes from celebrities that help communicate the void this legend, this icon, this Mexican treasure has left behind.

Se nos fue un gran ídolo! Siento mucho esta pérdida para México y el mundo. Descansa en paz mi querido Juan Gabriel. pic.twitter.com/yIaz7aVChD
