“Being authentic, not explaining yourself, and expressing yourself without labels, stereotypes or fear are messages that mean a lot to me. I am very happy to work with Smirnoff because they embody everything I just mentioned,” said Karol G. “As one of my first multi-dimensional partnerships, I’m thrilled to work together to inspire people to express themselves without fear of being judged, and instead celebrate life and everyone’s uniqueness together with music and drinks.”
