Aleks Syntek celebrates 57th birthday amid recent controversies
Mexican singer Aleks Syntek celebrated his 57th birthday on September 29, receiving a mix of congratulations and references to recent controversies from his followers on social media.
Fans praised his musical career and commented on his youthful appearance, with many echoing a past anecdote involving Shakira where she remarked on how young he looked. However, the celebration also drew attention to recent public friction. Syntek has recently faced scrutiny following comments made during a September 15 concert regarding reggaeton and an interaction with journalist Paola Rojas, for which he later apologized.
In a birthday video shared on his social media accounts, Syntek appeared to address the recent tension with humor, using a remix that compared himself to historical figures who were considered “crazy.”
