What happened
After host Shane Gillis introduced her, Rosalía opened with “Reliquia,” executing a ballet‑inspired routine that kept her on pointe for most of the song. She had trained with a professional ballerina for the LUX tour choreography. For the second set, she sang “Magnolias” in a sheer gown while studio rain fell onstage, creating a dramatic climax.
What was said
Billboard noted that “Reliquia” had reached the top‑10 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart in November 2025, and that LUX debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 and topped five genre charts.
