Lamine Yamal’s Birthday Bash Sparks Outrage Over Hiring of People with Dwarfism

Lamine Yamal’s 18th birthday celebration, which took place at Masia Alcázar del Garraf and hosted more than 250 attendees, has sparked widespread controversy.

The Association for People with Achondroplasia and Other Skeletal Dysplasias (ADEE) in Spain has publicly criticized the event for featuring individuals with dwarfism as part of the entertainment lineup.

ADEE stated that such performances “violate human dignity” and are in breach of Spain’s General Law on the Rights of People with Disabilities, which prohibits the use of individuals with disabilities “to provoke ridicule or mockery.”

Carolina Puente, the association’s president, called the situation “intolerable” and stressed that when public figures are involved, the damage is even greater: “It sends the message that discrimination is acceptable.”

ADEE has announced it will pursue legal and social actions to defend the rights of their community and demand accountability. “We won’t stay silent,” they said, calling on others with achondroplasia to stand with them. They’re demanding real change in how people with disabilities are treated—and that these situations never happen again.

The story has sparked outrage on social media and been widely covered by both Spanish and international outlets. There’s concern about the potential reputational damage to Yamal, who recently signed a long-term deal with FC Barcelona and inherited the iconic number 10 shirt.

Yamal and his representatives have yet to comment officially, but the controversy has thrust issues of ethics, public responsibility, and respect for diversity into the spotlight. ADEE remains firm: dignity is not entertainment, and when a media figure turns it into a spectacle, the consequences go far beyond a private party.
