Before heading to Panama for her big debut as a host at Premios Juventud, Nadia Ferreira made a stop in Puerto Rico, where she was a special guest at Bad Bunny's residency, 'No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí.' The former beauty queen accompanied her husband, Marc Anthony, who was the surprise guest at the final show. The experience moved her so deeply that she was brought to tears.
"I felt like a Puerto Rican, truly. I started tearing up," she said during a press conference held Wednesday alongside Alejandra Espinoza and Clarissa Molina, her co-hosts for the awards show, which takes place tonight in Panama City.

From there, she danced and sang along to the hits made famous by Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (Bad Bunny) and watched in awe as her husband performed 'Preciosa,' a song written by Rafael Hernández Marín in 1937, which Marc Anthony recorded in 1999 for his album 'Desde un Principio: From the Beginning.'

Proud of her Puerto Rican family:
Nadia also expressed her pride in Puerto Rico, highlighting her son Marquito's heritage. "Well, my son is half Puerto Rican, so in a way I celebrate that too. It was an incredible night," said the former beauty queen.
