In early May 2023, Dania Mendez posted a TikTok video of herself enjoying a swim at a beach in the Dominican Republic town of Punta Cana. The influencer donned a brown knitted two-piece with sunglasses, with her long dark her swept to one side.

The clip showed her strolling away from the waves and kneeling on the sand to inscribe the word "Bye." Dania Mendez tagged Peso Pluma in the caption with a brown heart emoji, and the video went viral, immediately leading to dating speculations.

The "Bye" that Mendez inscribed on the sand in her video was the title of the tune that played in the background of the 14-second teaser for Pluma's then-upcoming song and music video.

While the rest wondered if the two were more than friends in real life, the Mexican musician proved the speculations right as Mendez was his love interest in the video, and they were seen kissing.

Pluma was exposed to many cultures growing up, and they influenced his personality and musical taste. He simultaneously developed a liking for Mexican music and hip-hop, from Ariel Camacho to Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Bad Bunny.

May 2023 was an eventful month for the singer, as in addition to his dating rumors, he became the first regional Mexican artist to appear on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon." With growing fame, however, often comes immense pressure and public scrutiny.
