Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican sensation, took the “Saturday Night Live” stage by storm, leaving an indelible mark on the show’s history. This iconic appearance featured surprise cameos from the likes of Pedro Pascal, Mick Jagger, and Lady Gaga, making it a memorable night for fans of the show and music enthusiasts worldwide. Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, went above and beyond on “SNL.” Not only did he perform as the musical guest, but he also took on the role of the show’s host.

Breaking Language Barriers
One of the most heartwarming moments of the night was his opening monologue. He acknowledged that English is not his first language, which raised questions about his hosting abilities. To overcome this, he had a surprise in store for the audience. Pedro Pascal, a renowned actor, joined him on stage to translate the Spanish portions of his monologue. As Bad Bunny shared his morning experiences in New York in Spanish, Pascal playfully translated, “He says, ‘I’m blessed to be here with my favorite actor Pedro Pascal.'” This interaction set the stage for a night filled with laughter and entertainment.
Hilarious Skits and Familiar Faces
Pedro Pascal, who appeared on “SNL” last season, delighted the audience by reprising a skit. In this memorable sketch, he portrayed an overprotective mother who disapproved of her son’s new girlfriend. He joined in on the fun, playing the role of an equally unimpressed aunt. The chemistry between the two was a highlight of the night.
Mick Jagger, the iconic frontman of the Rolling Stones, made a triumphant return to “SNL.” This marked Jagger’s first appearance on the show since 1986. He joined Bad Bunny and Marcello Hernández in a telenovela skit, adding his unique charm to the scene. As a heated argument unfolded, Jagger intervened with a comical slap, settling the dispute in style. Jagger also participated in a sketch parody of “Sister Act 3,” showcasing his versatility and sense of humor.
Unforgettable Musical Performances
Bad Bunny concluded his exceptional night on “SNL” with two outstanding musical performances. His first song, “Un Preview,” was introduced by none other than the incomparable Lady Gaga. The audience was in for a treat as these two music giants shared the stage.
Following this, he delivered a mesmerizing performance of “Monaco,” with Pedro Pascal providing the introduction. The energy and charisma he brought to the stage left a lasting impression on viewers.
Afterparty Extravaganza
The excitement didn’t end with the show. He and his rumored girlfriend, Kendall Jenner, attended an “SNL” afterparty, as revealed by photos obtained by People. This public appearance added more fuel to the speculation about their relationship. The two have been spotted together at various events, from nights out in New York City to sitting side by side at Gucci’s fashion show during Milan Fashion Week.
Personal Life Enigma
Bad Bunny has been making headlines not only for his incredible talent but also for his enigmatic personal life. In a Vanity Fair cover story interview, he addressed his relationship with “The Kardashians” star, Kendall Jenner, albeit cryptically. He expressed his desire to maintain privacy, stating, “They don’t know how you feel, they don’t know how you live, they don’t know anything, and I really don’t want them to know. I’m not really interested in clarifying anything because I have no commitment to clarify anything to anyone.”
In conclusion, his’s appearance on “Saturday Night Live” was a historic and star-studded event that captivated audiences. His ability to transcend language barriers and seamlessly transition between hosting and performing was truly remarkable.
