In a recent Instagram post, Argentine singer Nicki Nicole expressed her thoughts on the significance of respect in relationships. The 23-year-old artist shared her sentiments amidst speculations that she and Mexican star Peso Pluma have called it quits. The rumors were fueled after Peso Pluma was spotted in Las Vegas during Super Bowl weekend with another woman, captured in footage that circulated on social media showing them holding hands.
Nicki Nicole, whose real name is Nicole Denise Cucco, took to her Instagram Story to convey her beliefs in a simple text over a black backdrop. She began her message by emphasizing that respect is an essential aspect of love. According to her, love and respect are interrelated - when you love someone, you inherently respect them, and when you respect someone, you take care of them.
The singer-songwriter went on to state that if she is not taken care of and if respect is lacking in her relationship, she will not stay in such a situation. She ended her post by expressing gratitude for her fans' support and informing them that she discovered the truth of the situation simultaneously with them.
Representatives for both Nicki Nicole and Peso Pluma have not yet responded to requests for comment from PEOPLE.
This public statement from Nicki Nicole comes shortly after the couple made a joint appearance at the 2024 Grammys just over a week ago. The musicians attended the prestigious event together, with Nicki Nicole supporting Peso Pluma, whose album GÉNESIS was nominated and ultimately won the award for best música Mexicana album (including tejano). The pair walked the red carpet and posed for photographs, making their relationship official to the public eye.
The rumors surrounding their romance were initially sparked in November 2023 when Nicki Nicole invited Peso Pluma (whose real name is Hassan Emilio Kabande Laija) to join her on stage during her concert in Mexico City. The crowd was treated to a special performance of their hit collaboration, 'Por Las Noches — Remix,' during which they held hands and shared loving glances. The audience's excitement reached a peak as they chanted 'Kiss! Kiss!' in Spanish, prompting the couple to indulge in a public display of affection.
Their romantic involvement was further confirmed when they made their red carpet debut at the 2023 Latin Grammy Awards in Sevilla, Spain. The duo's collaboration on the remix of Peso Pluma's beloved song 'Por Las Noches,' released in February 2023, also added fuel to the dating rumors.
Throughout the following months, the couple was spotted together on multiple occasions, including a trip to Disneyland in July and attending a soccer game together in September. The speculations of their relationship status only intensified with these public appearances.
As fans eagerly await any official confirmation, Nicki Nicole's recent statement highlights the importance of respect in relationships and stands as a reminder of the significance of maintaining a healthy dynamic.
