Danny Ocean, Elena Rose, Ricardo Montaner, Karina and more Latin music artists reacted to the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife in a U.S. military operation carried out last weekend in Caracas. In exile, the news was received mostly with a mix of joy and cautious optimism. Danny Ocean, who has been vocal about the situation in his country and who recently sang at the Nobel Peace ceremony in honor of opposition leader María Corina Machado, initially shared an image of the Venezuelan flag with the piece Honor Hymn by Matthias Frisch from the film ‘Gladiator,’ followed by a statement from Machado. Days later, he sent a clear message of hope to his compatriots on his X account. “My faith is too high and nothing and no one is going to bring it down.” And he also says: “Despite the fear and silence they want to impose on us, may the light in our hearts shine brighter than ever.” Some have chosen to share messages of peace and prayer. “Lord, care for and bless the Venezuelan people. Take away the bad ones and allow peace to reign and may your love and mercy guide the future of all who love you. Amen. Amen,” Ricardo Montaner posted on his Instagram stories. Similarly, Elena Rose, known for her spirituality, shared on her Instagram stories a prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel asking for his protection, as well as Psalm 21 about divine protection,refuge and safety.
