I will always respect him for doing the Alaska show.

There was an online contest to vote for Pitbull to go perform at your local Walmart. The internet being what it is, he got sent to the most remote Walmart in the US, Kodiak Alaska. He did go and perform. What a top lad.

Walmart having a very large fleet of corporate private jets likely made the decision and trip easier for him.

If you call yourself Mr. Worldwide you can’t really say no.

For real. I’m sure he got money or whatever but it does show a certain sense of humor/self awareness

I also have not yet heard that he is a sex criminal, despite his lyrics.
