The concerts of Rosalía in the Palau Sant Jordi have gone beyond the musical: according to a seismologist, the performances have generated small earth tremors registered by scientific measurement instruments.

During the four shows held in Barcelona, peaks of seismic activity were detected coinciding with the hours of the concerts, a phenomenon that experts relate to the energy of the audience, the rhythm of the music and the intensity of the event.

The study, carried out using a accelerometer near the venue, reflects that the movements were slight but clearly identifiable, something that is not unusual in mass events with thousands of attendees jumping and dancing at the same time.

Ultimately, Rosalía's concerts have not only filled the stadium, but also have "made vibrate" the city in a literal sense, becoming one of the most commented phenomena of the weekend.

Not only does it shake the ground... also the televisions

The artist's impact has not stopped there. Fans of the artist have already been able to see her perform in the third season of Euphoria, where she makes her acting debut playing Magick, a pole dancer who works in a nightclub.

Her appearance comes in the second episode and has generated much anticipation, as the artist appears in a key scene in which her character argues with the owner of the establishment over the working conditions, in a tense and emotional context. Magick is presented as a woman trying to survive in a complicated environment, where her work situation is even more limited by an injury that forces her to wear a neck brace, which causes the conflict with her boss from the very first moment.

One of the most commented elements of her debut is the use of Spanish and English in her dialogue, which reinforces the character's identity and brings naturalness to the scene, in which Rue also appears, the character played by Zendaya.
