Bad Bunny stuns at 2024 Met Gala hours before New Orleans concert. Here’s what he wore.
Bad Bunny is booked and busy.
A little more than 24 hours before his “Most Wanted” tour stop in New Orleans, the global pop star walked the red (well, green) carpet at the 2024 Met Gala in New York City.
Bad Bunny serves as one of Vogue editor Anna Wintour’s co-chairs of one of the most exclusive and star-studded events of the year. He’s joined this yeat by other co-chairs Jennifer Lopez, Chris Hemsworth and Zendaya.
Born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, the 29-year-old singer/songwriter is from Puerto Rico and has a global audience who consumes his music in both English and Spanish.
Bad Bunny is the first artist to have an all-Spanish record, El Último Tour del Mundo, take the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200, according to Biography.com.
You’ve heard him with Cardi B and J Balvin on the hit song “I Like It,” have seen him sing Ariana Grande with James Corden and watched him date “The Kardashians” star and model sister Kendall Jenner. He’s also been hailed as a queer icon and fierce ally for the Latinx LGBTQ+ community.
Bad Bunny walked the carpet wearing a striking outfit with a matador flair. It’s a custom piece, from Maison Margiela Artisanal Collection by John Galliano, Vogue reported.
The star boasted a large, puffy hat and carried a bouquet made from his jacket fabric that included an homage to his Puerto Rican home.
This year’s Met Gala theme was “Garden of Time” and is celebrating the Costume Institute’s spring exhibit, titled Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.
Bad Bunny will have just a short window from the gala’s start until his “Most Wanted” tour concert at the Smoothie King Center, which start at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
