Singer stops concert to scold fan who brought baby to show without ear protection
A video of Colombian singer Maluma has gone viral, showing the artist stopping his concert over the weekend to scold a fan who brought a toddler to his show without ear protection. "Do you think it's a good idea to bring a 1-year-old baby to a concert where the decibels are this f------ high?" the 31-year-old says in Spanish in the video. "That baby doesn't even know what they're doing here. Next time, protect their ears or something. For real." Maluma, who is a parent to a 1-year-old daughter with partner Susana Gómez, continued, "It's your responsibility. You're waving them around like they're a toy. That baby doesn't want to be there, for real. I'm telling you with all the love and respect -- now that I'm a father, I would never bring them to a concert. So, for the next time, be a bit more aware, OK?" According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hearing loss can occur in both children and adults, and even before birth. Excessive exposure to loud noises can cause noise-induced hearing loss, which the CDC notes can "result from a one-time exposure to a very loud sound, blast, or impulse, or from listening to loud sounds over an extended period." The World Health Organization also estimates that over 1 billion people between the ages of 12 and 35 are "at risk for hearing loss due to recreational exposure to loud sound." To prevent hearing loss, the CDC recommends avoiding places with loud sounds or limiting exposure, if possible, using ear protection and turning down the volume of music systems or moving away from loud sounds.
