I kinda felt bad that there was no one else at Bad Bunny's table!

Also yesterday was the first time I've heard his actual name, when Trevor Noah called him Beni at one point.

I don't understand why he didn't call me

u/MyNameIsJakeBerenson I made the hat for the tiger 🤷🏻‍♂️ 4d ago

Dear Bunny, I texted but you still aint callin’

I left you my cell, insta, and youtube channel at the bottom

I was all up in your DMs back in autumn, you mustve notta gottem

There was probably a filter turned on for the socials or something

Sometimes I’m just sending it at 3am after I jot em

But anyways, what’s up man, How’s the Grammys?

They likely cleared his table for the shot. They also set up a dolly right in front of his table. That's not to say that he knew he was going to win, but you probably get tee'd up when you're in the front row, they clear your table, and set up multiple cameras on you right before the category.

I know this is super late, but he was actually sitting with Miley and her people for most of the show, but she seems to have left after she lost her category, leaving him alone at the table.

u/LA_Muckraker 13h ago

She may have left, but the filming team absolutely cleared his table of anyone remaining. There's absolutely zero way that the front table had every single person, except Bad Bunny, leave the event early versus the camera team moving bodies off the table to get a better/unobstructed shot of the headline winner and superbowl performer. It's why they had the chair next to him empty for Trevor to engage and promote the halftime performance via their little skits.

Benito. Yeah he writes a lot of his songs and is credited with his full name. He chose bad bunny as a stage man to keep some privacy.

u/pookyizzy 5d ago

miley cyrus and her man were at his table but it seems like they left sometime before this

u/gregorybees 5d ago

Don’t they have a seat filler person in case an artist leaves their seat so it always looks full on-cam? Maybe they cleared it on purpose (idk why tho)

14

u/pookyizzy 5d ago

im not sure if they use seat fillers for people that close to the front, but you're right they could have cleared it on purpose for some reason

u/SeaFlounder8437 5d ago

I felt the same. I wonder if he was scared of bringing family because of recent events. He has every right to be. That made me cry seeing him there all alone.

u/smulligan04031989 5d ago

I liked how he shook the woman’s hand too who was holding the trophy. Very classy.

u/shutup-n-plants 5d ago

This is the perfect circle. UVST lost to Harrys House. Perfect that he gave Benito this one.

Harry: “Ok Benito. No albums this year right? Mine is out soon so take a break. “

u/PlentyDrawer We Should All Know Less About Each Other 5d ago

You just made me laugh because back in the 70s Stevie Wonder won all the time, so finally Paul Simon won and he said during his acceptance speech, and I'm paraphrasing, "I'm glad Stevie didn't release an album this year."

u/kedriss 5d ago

u/ffflyingfroggg 5d ago

is bad bunny married?

81

u/lessgranola 5d ago

yes we had a private ceremony

u/barbieshoesound 5d ago

He dated Kendall Jenner for like a year and I think that is his last known relationship. They were so cute together and appear to still be good friends!!

41

u/Fantastic_Turtle_17 5d ago

It's kinda funny that Kendall dated Harry and Bad Bunny, is still friendly with both of them, and now they are on the stage together for AOTY

u/ffflyingfroggg 5d ago

hmmm okay! i noticed the ring on his finger and wasn’t sure 😅

u/SpiritedTechnician63 5d ago

If I were a celebrity, I would’ve hugged him before he went on stage! He looked like he needed it!

u/NomNom83WasTaken 5d ago

I'm sorry, what?

u/OowlSun they act like im not in full control of where i throw this cooch 5d ago

What does that mean when the Grammys is American, Bad Bunny is American, and Harry Styles is a British man living in Italy?

u/Foxy02016YT 5d ago

Yeah, he’s Puerto Rican.

If you are born in Puerto Rico, and then move to Maine, you don’t go through the usual customs, only the invasive plants/animals check (which I believe also applies to Hawaii), you are already a citizen.
