RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – The pre-candidate for national deputy in Argentina, Cinthia Fernández, closed her campaign before the primary elections next Sunday with a musical production in front of the National Congress that quickly went viral on social networks.
It was a hot artistic performance, which mixed the political slogan with a provocative message and ended a brief but intense proselytizing rally with one goal: to reach the National Congress and be sworn in as a representative of the people.
In the clip, the actress, model, and panelist appears dressed in black – in the style of a tango dancer – and performs a version of the classic “Se dice de mí” by Tita Merello. “It is said that I am hollow, that I don’t deserve the position, and that my ass is what I offer, and I have nothing to say,” Fernández sings as she rips off her skirt.
Then -in a garter belt and a black thong- she advances that if she gets to Parliament, she will fight for different issues related to family conflicts, such as the delays in the courts to define the alimony quota.
“Maybe if they listened to me, they wouldn’t criticize me so much. My proposal is obvious, I will repeat it: some laws exist, they are not enforced, the processes are slow, it takes a long time, and in the meantime, your children must continue to eat, learn and grow up without suffering,” the song continues.
The video, posted by Cinthia Fernández herself on her Instagram account, is accompanied by a text that anticipates the criticism.
As a statement of political principles and recognition of her corrosive electoral proposal, the dancer demands, “I can already hear the scathing phrases like look at the ‘puta’ (whore), look at the airhead who doesn’t know how to do anything else, what a generous country, ridiculous, cat, what else can you expect from her, what a shameful mother, what will your daughters say, this is the only thing she knows how to do….,” smiles the provocative precandidate.
In this line, Fernandez “thanks” her critics because they are the ones who “empower” her desire and her cause. “They fell for it again. My ass is just bait to get their attention, and you know what? Every time I showed it, they bit and only made me and my voice stronger,” she says to her critics.
The pre-candidate has no qualms in recognizing that her “little butt” is nothing more than “a simple and cheap campaign strategy”. And she assures: “By showing my little ass I don’t expect them to come in and vote for me, I don’t underestimate the young people or the ‘wankers’. Let’s be realistic; nobody is going to vote for you because you have a nice ass.”
During the campaign, Cinthia Fernández explained that if she is elected, she intends to focus on the issues addressed in the Family Commission. “I can contribute a lot of things because I live them every day,” she said in relation to her problematic relationship with her ex-partner Matías Defederico, the father of her daughters.
