Bad BunnymadeSaturday Night Liveviewers laugh — and dance — this weekend.
During his monologue, Bad Bunny — Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio — brought out Pascal, 48, who helped translate the rapper’s Spanish after he switched from performing the monologue in English, which he said “is not my first language.”
The two friends embraced as the actor joined Bad Bunny on stage, and after the rapper spoke a few more sentences in Spanish, Pascal joked, “He says, ‘I’m blessed to be here with my favorite actor Pedro Pascal.'”
The rapper then asked Pascal for advice on his monologue. The’Last of Us’actor explained that “it’s always helpful when you do a self-deprecating joke” or “an embarrassing photo.”
Bad Bunny then showed a swooning photo of him lying in the sun naked with a small towel covering him. “How is that embarrassing?” Pascal asked him. “Because I forgot to put on clothes!” he replied.
Just two days before Bad Bunny’sSNLappearance, the Grammy-nominated artist had announced that he would begoing on a 31-city North American tourset to kick off on February 2024 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
According to a press release, each performance on Bad Bunny’sThe Most Wanted Tourwill be an “experience curated for day-one fans.”
