Karol G spent the past two years touring the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, and Europe. Now, she is taking a well-deserved break. While she hasn't posted much on social media, she recently surprised fans by sharing a photo with Ed Sheeran.

While the world automatically thinks of collaboration when two artists appear together, the snap shows them ironing a t-shirt together. "For those wondering what I'm up to after the tour…" Karol G wrote. This everyday task seemed normal, but fans are convinced this is not just friends doing chores, but a hint to something big in the works.

While we wait for more clues, fans can catch the "Bichota" singer on the fifth season of the Fortnite Festival; Karol G is the first Latina to join a roster of stars that includes Lady Gaga, The Weeknd, Billie Eilish, Metallica, and more. The announcement was made on Fortnite's social media. The post shows an animation of Karol G alongside some of her musicians, who flank her on the stage. "Spread those positive vibes around like glitter with the star power of @karolg Fortnite Festival Season 5 is live now!" reads the caption. 

Karol G also shared the news on her social media. "Fortnite is entering 'Bichota Season,' and you're not ready," she wrote. 

J Balvin has also been featured in one of Fortnite's special events. In 2020, he participated in Fortnitemares, the yearly Halloween event. In addition to featuring a Karol G skin in the game, Epic Games, the developer of Fortnite, will host a playable concert inside the game this August 23rd.
