Rosalía's Theatrical Performance on 'The Tonight Show' Leaves Audiences Enchanted
In a spectacular display of musical grandeur, Spanish singer Rosalía took to the stage of 'The Tonight Show' last night to perform her highly-acclaimed new album 'Lux'. The evening was a masterclass in theatrical performance, with Rosalía showcasing her evocative track "La Perla" in a sumptuous white gown surrounded by musicians.
As the camera pulled back, it revealed that she was lying on a pile of mattresses, surrounded by musicians including a strings section. In a nod to fairy tale 'The Princess and the Pea', Rosalía climbed down from the bed and revealed a pearly ball from under the mattresses - the title of her song "La Perla". The performance was subtitled in English for viewers.
Rosalía sat down with host Jimmy Fallon to chat about 'Lux', which features her singing in 13 different languages. She discussed how she approached the album, saying that she knew exactly how she wanted it to sound. When discussing her approach to music-making, Rosalía revealed that she gets nervous when sharing her vision, but is more at ease during recording sessions.
The evening also featured a showcase of Rosalía's vocal warm-ups and rhythmic techniques, with the singer teaching Fallon various clapping exercises and demonstrating how she created different rhythms on the album. The chemistry between Rosalía and Fallon was palpable, as they engaged in a game of "Seductive, Insulting, or Nonsense", where Rosalía spoke to Fallon in Spanish while he attempted to guess the tone of her speech.
Rolling Stone has hailed 'Lux' as an instant classic, describing it as "a truly timeless work of art" that "no other pop star could have made". With its operatic inspirations, collaborations with the London Symphony Orchestra, and careful training, Rosalía's 'Lux' is a testament to her artistic prowess. The performance on 'The Tonight Show' has solidified Rosalía's position as one of music's most exciting talents, leaving audiences enchanted by her theatrical presence.

! Rosalía is a total boss on that stage, she got so much swag 
. I love how she incorporated fairy tale vibes into the performance, it's like she brought the magic of 'The Princess and the Pea' to life 
. And her vocals are insane 
, I was singing along to every song in my car for days 
. The fact that she sings in 13 different languages is just mind-blowing 
. I'm not surprised Rolling Stone said 'Lux' is a classic, it's like the album was made for royalty 
. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go watch her YouTube videos again 
So they're saying Rosalía just casually pulled out a pearly ball from under a pile of mattresses for her song "La Perla" and that's supposed to be some kind of magic moment? 
I mean, what's the source on this mattress reveal thing? Was it in the original album footage or did they just add it for the TV special? 
Also, why do we need subtitles when Rosalía is already speaking Spanish during her performance? Is there a reason we're assuming she's not fluent in English to begin with? 
I loved how she incorporated all those languages into her album it's like a true masterpiece 
I can imagine how nervous she must've been sharing her vision, but it's clear that she knows what she's doing 
the way she moved between the mattresses to reveal that pearly ball was just WOW 
I'm not surprised Rolling Stone is calling 'Lux' an instant classic, Rosalía's got that magic 
and Jimmy Fallon seemed like a great sport playing along with her clapping exercises 
that perf was everything 
and can we talk about her vocals 
they're literally insane 
rosalia is def one of the most talented singers out there 
And can we talk about how down-to-earth she seems despite being super talented? I loved the chemistry with Jimmy Fallon, they had so much fun together 
can't wait for more music from this queen 
! And I love how she's not afraid to be a little weird and try new things 
. The way she incorporated music, dance, and storytelling into her performance was pure magic 
. And can we talk about that outfit? 
. Rosalía's got some serious musical chops and she's not afraid to show them off 
. The whole fairy tale thing with the mattresses and the pearly ball... it reminded me of that one sketch from 'Saturday Night Live' where Chris Farley dressed up as a girl in a bed 
and can we talk about that performance where she comes out of the mattresses? 
it was like a real-life fairy tale. and that collab with the london symphony orchestra is giving me LIFE 
I gotta say, Rosalía's performance on The Tonight Show was absolutely mesmerizing 
. I'm not surprised Rolling Stone is calling Lux an instant classic - Rosalía's already proven herself to be a musical genius, but this performance just solidified her status as one of the most exciting artists out there 
shouldn't we be able to understand the genius without needing a translation tool? 
The way she just owns that stage, her energy is infectious 
and that chemistry with Jimmy Fallon? 
? I also loved how she broke down those clapping exercises for Jimmy Fallon, it's amazing to see artists willing to share their creative process with others. What really struck me was how confident and at ease Rosalía seemed despite being nervous about sharing her vision... she just owned that stage
