Miguel from Love is Blind looks like this famous Spanish singer
Are you Love Is Blind: Netherlands watching and thought to yourself about Miguel: where do I know that face from? You are not alone. On social media, the reality participant is being widely compared to none other than the Colombian rapper Maluma. You know, that singer full of tattoos, a buzzcut, and a little beard who has completely dominated the Spanish music world in recent years.
Miguel from Love Is Blind seems to viewers to resemble Maluma
One of the most enjoyable things about reality TV remains: one moment you are just focused on watching the drama of the contestants, but also on the question of where you actually know them from. With Miguel, that is clear for many viewers: he is just like Maluma.
On Reddit and TikTok, the comparison stood out especially. Viewers shared there that Miguel reminded them of the Colombian singer. And once someone has said it, you start looking at the guy a little differently. The dark hair, the facial expression, and the overall vibe: there are certainly similarities that make the comparison.
Of course, Miguel and Maluma are not suddenly lookalikes that you can easily confuse. But the fact that both speak Spanish and have these roots does help with the comparison. And I think that Miguel doesn't mind this comparison at all, given the greatness of this pop star.

Who is Maluma?
If the name Maluma sounds familiar but you can't immediately think of a song by him: his real name is Juan Luis Londoño Arias and he comes from Medellín, Colombia. He is a singer, songwriter, and rapper and has grown into a big name in Latin pop and reggaeton.
You might know him from songs like Hawái, Felices los 4, and Chantaje, a collab with Shakira. His music combines catchy Latin pop with reggaeton and romantic lyrics. And besides his music, his appearance is also a recognizable part of his image: it comes from his hairstyle and his tattoos.
This is why Miguel resembles Maluma
A lookalike comparison is, of course, personal. While one viewer immediately sees Maluma, another might think of a completely different famous face. Still, it's funny how quickly such a comparison is picked up online once someone shares it.
With Miguel, it’s mainly about the vibe that viewers recognize, which has gone viral internationally. Maluma has a distinctive presence that you could recognize even without his music videos. Miguel stands out in Love Is Blind: Netherlands in his own (Spanish) way, and apparently, that evokes the same association for many viewers.
