    Que pena la desilusión que ha causado el mal comportamiento, al menos admitido, de Plácido Domingo. No tenía ninguna necesidad de manejarse así, Esa conducta hace mucho daño a quienes resultan víctimas. También es triste para su familia y sus seguidores que lo admiraba os como cantante y como ser humano.
