At the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night, Bad Bunny surprised viewers by kissing one of his male backup dancers.
The 28-year-old “Callata” singer was performing his hit song “Tit Me Preguntó” at Yankee Stadium when a female dancer drew him in for a kiss.
Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martnez Ocasio, then kissed the male dancer on the other side.
After becoming the first non-English-language singer to win Artist of the Year, the Puerto Rican rapper delivered the steamy performance.

“I’m on my way to being Bad Bunny’s second male kiss,” one Twitter user wrote, along with a video of a woman riding a motorcycle.
“I HAD TO SEE BAD BUNNY KISS A MAN ON STAGE WITH MY OWN TWO EYES.” “WE LOVE BISEXUAL BENITO,” said another fan.
“wait … “I just realised I’m not the male backup dancer Bad Bunny kissed,” a third joked.
Several fans also speculated that the “Ojitos lindos” singer planned the kiss to pay homage to Madonna, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera — as the “Material Girl” singer infamously gave both pop princesses a kiss during their 2003 VMAs performance.
Bunny is currently dating Gabriela Berlingeri, and despite previously speaking out about masculinity and sexuality in the Latinx community, he has not identified as gay or bisexual.
Berlingeri appeared to be in support of her beau’s kiss, as she posted a photo of him accepting his groundbreaking award to her Instagram Story on Monday morning.
