Christian Nodal, Ángela Aguilar and the Aguilar family drove through the streets of Tayahua, Zacatecas, on Christmas Eve to give toys to local children. This annual tradition of the Aguilar dynasty featured Nodal's participation for the first time as Ángela's husband. The event drew both praise and criticism for being documented on social media.
The Aguilar family, renowned for their traditions, extended their Christmas celebrations beyond private gatherings. On Christmas Eve, Christian Nodal, Ángela Aguilar's husband, joined Pepe Aguilar, his wife Aneliz, Aneliz Jr., and Leonardo Aguilar to distribute toys in Tayahua, Zacatecas, a town near their El Soyate ranch.
The group set off from the ranch in four trucks loaded with gifts like dolls and toy cars. Pepe Aguilar led the convoy with a megaphone, shouting: “We need children who want gifts” to draw in the kids. Videos shared on social media captured the moment as hundreds of children, along with youths and adults, approached excitedly, receiving toys and posing for photos with the regional Mexican music stars.
This initiative is an annual custom for the Aguilars, who, with Zacatecan roots, typically hold it around Three Kings' Day in local communities like Tayahua. This year, however, they advanced the event to align with the family reunion at El Soyate for Christmas, marking Nodal's debut in the activity. The singers appeared joyful while interacting with the crowd.
While the charitable effort was praised for bringing joy to the children, it also faced criticism for being documented on digital platforms. Nevertheless, the family proceeded with their community commitment, strengthening ties in the region.
