“Only once at an activity a few months ago did they flat out say I couldn't appear. At another proposal for a theater show they asked to exclude me from the cast. This is the fourth time I've tried to work somewhere in the state and it has 'failed' for me to be able of doing so. Green with advice…”, the comedian responded about the precedents of this refusal.

In a veiled reference to other comedians who enter and leave the country, De La Rosa added: “And sure enough, they come back and suddenly you see them working as if nothing had happened. There are examples that have been commented on heavily. Nothing, we're wrong.” Periodically and you don't have any problems.
