Yo, what s up, Vogue?

This is Maluma, baby!

We re here in Paris.

And get ready with me for the Louis Vuitton Fashion Show.

We re ready.

Nos vemos! [speaks Spanish]

[upbeat music playing]

We have the whole crew over here who works with me

and we re super grateful with them.

Today is a big day.

You guys know what s gonna happen

with the Louis Vuitton show.

So we re here to celebrate it.

And I brought them all

because they had to see this iconic moment.

What s my typical getting ready like?

I just go straight to take a shower.

I go out, I brush my teeth.

I don t like putting a lot of creams or something like that.

I just like to feel like more natural.

To be honest, right now, my hair, it s like

a little bit messy, you know, because it s growing

so it s like, not like, not heavy at all.

So I have to put some cream and wax

you know what I mean?

But still, I m pretty, I m pretty easy.

I come here, I try to relax.

I try to take a bath before.

This box got to my hotel yesterday.

Thank you, Louis Vuitton.

Thank you Pharrell.

For real. This is beautiful to have.

Okay, Charan, we have this letter.

I m not gonna read it to you, because it s personal.

Look at this. This is amazing.

So the last Louis Vuitton show that I had the chance,

the opportunity to go was in Miami.

That was such an epic and an iconic show.

To be honest, that was my my favorite show I ever been

in my life, because that was last Virgil show.

And now that today I m gonna have the pleasure to

see the first Pharrell show

for Louis Vuitton is something that I always dream about.

I know Pharrell for a couple years, and I know

that he s such a genius that he s gonna take this thing

to another level and he s gonna keep inspiring

in the same way as Virgil was doing.

And I feel the inspiration right now to be part

of the Louis Vuitton show tonight here in Paris

is something iconic that I always dream about.

So we re about to see something pretty magical.

So guys, look at this beautiful outfit right now

in the tour, we re wearing like these kind of colors.

We re wearing this kind of shape too.

We re wearing a lot of shorts.

I wanna start like wearing suits, but pretty comfortable.

That s what I m looking for. And pretty colorful too.

I m 29 years old.

I feel like it s a right moment to wear a modern suit.

And this is for sure something epic, modern and chic.

I m not wearing nothing cool right now, to be honest.

I need that outfit in my life, please.

But don t tell the brands that I feel like this.

Thank you.

[laughter]

See you, see you, see you, I m gonna change.

I ll be back.

[indistinct chatter]

Okay, let me know guys.

Chara!

[indistinct Spanish singing]

[laughter]

We re almost almost ready, almost ready.

We need some accessories right here.

Okay, let me check what we got.

I have a couple watches over here.

My favorite, that actually is not the one who

has the more diamonds, is not the most expensive one.

This Cartier is a vintage Cartier.

It reminds me a lot, my grandparents.

I can see them wearing this watch today and they re alive.

So they remind me like

how beautiful is having them alive in my life?

You know, like, that s a gift. That is priceless.

So this is actually my dog.

I have two Dobermans, right?

And this one is Buddha.

And he was the cover of my last album

that was called Sex and Love Tape.

And that s where it has like, the broken heart on the chest,

you can see it.

[bouncy upbeat music]

As soon we got to the Louis Vuitton office, I told her like

you know which one I m gonna choose, right?

And then she was like, is this the one that I like?

It was like made for me right now.

Thank you, guys.

We are here.

Thanks for your, for your time.

Thanks for being here.

I love you, Vogue.
