REGGAETON star Daddy Yankee has had €2 million worth of jewellery and diamonds and US$2,500 in cash stolen from his hotel room in Valencia.
The Puerto Rican singer famous for last summer's duet with compatriot Luis Fonsi, Despacito – the first-ever Spanish language hit to reach number one in the UK charts – returned to his room at the four-star resort in the city on Tuesday to find his money and valuables missing.
An unknown individual had succeeded in passing for Daddy Yankee and asking hotel employees to open the safe in the bedroom.
Not suspecting they were being duped by an imposter, staff complied, and the 'fake' Daddy Yankee cleared it out.
Reception and the police were alerted and officers scanned the CCTV cameras, but they were only able to identify the employees who had gone into the suite to open the safe.
The thief apparently left no traces, not even fingerprints.
