The Dominican merengue singer Bonny Cepeda is once again in the public eye after appearing in the Venezuelan series Nicolás: De Yare a Miraflores, a biographical production that portrays the Venezuelan president’s journey from his youth as a unionist to his arrival at the Miraflores Palace. The series, recently premiered in Venezuela by the production company Televen, combines dramatizations, archival material, and interviews with figures close to the president. Among them, the participation of Cepeda stands out, who for years has maintained professional ties with the Venezuelan government and has been a frequent guest at official activities. The artist, known for songs like “Asesina” and “Una fotografía”, thus expands his international presence with a role outside the musical sphere, integrating into a narrative that seeks to humanize and contextualize the political trajectory of the South American head of state.
