The Reebok Freestyle His are my favorite."How do you want to introduce Reebok to Latin American audiences who connect with your music?"I want people in Latin America to see Reebok as a brand that feels connected to them and their own style.

I hope people feel inspired to express themselves in their own way and make these pieces part of their everyday lives."How will you be bringing Reebok with you on the "Viajando Por El Mundo TropiTour"?"Reebok sneakers are worn throughout my tour performances, both on me and many of my dancers. It is so magical seeing it all come to life.
