The singer María Cruz, a participant in the well-known television program Operación Triunfo, revealed during the visit to the academy of the Lanzarote artist Eva Ruiz that part of her family is from Lanzarote.
Despite the fact that the singer was born in Gran Canaria, she said during the talk that her father is from Lanzarote, specifically from the town of Mácher, while her mother is from Gran Canaria.
Eva Ruiz, somewhat surprised, responded that her mother was from Uga and that "they were close by," as can be seen in the video. It so happens that María Cruz's father, Juan Díaz Cruz, is a cousin of Pepe Juan Cruz, mayor of Tías.
María Cruz is proving to be a versatile artist on the show, where no song or genre is beyond her. With performances such as Ariana Grande's Yes, and? or Judeline's Canijo, the artist has managed to avoid nominations since OT began last September.
