Bad Bunny Performs ‘NUEVAYoL' & ‘PERFuMITO NUEVO' on ‘SNL' Season 50 Finale: Watch
Bad Bunny helped close out Saturday Night Live's milestone 50th season with a memorable appearance on the show's May 17 season finale, hosted by actress Scarlett Johansson. The 31-year-old Puerto Rican superstar took the stage twice during the NBC sketch comedy series, performing a pair of tracks from his history-making album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos.

The performance featured a powerful visual homage to the iconic 1930s photograph of 11 ironworkers eating lunch on a steel beam high above Manhattan during the construction of 30 Rockefeller Plaza — appropriately tying to SNL's home turf. Later in the show, the global star returned to perform 'PERFuMITO NUEVO,' joined by fellow Puerto Rican artist RaiNao. Set in a graffiti-covered club bathroom, the performance began with RaiNao's soft, hypnotic vocals before she discovered Bad Bunny seated in a toilet stall. The two then engaged in playful flirtation that escalated into a steamy encounter in another stall. Beyond his musical performances, Bad Bunny — making his third appearance as a musical guest on SNL — also joined Johansson in several sketches. Highlights included a barroom scene where two men bond over their chaotic girlfriends, and a comedic bit in which the rapper heroically steps in as an air traffic controller. Bad Bunny's SNL appearance comes at a high point in his career. Debí Tirar Más Fotos, his sixth studio album, recently surged back to No. 1 on the Billboard 200 following its vinyl release. Plus, the superstar's actual summer plans involve his highly-anticipated, month-long residency at Coliseo de Puerto Rico, which launches July 11 in San Juan and remarkably sold 400,000 tickets in just four hours earlier this year.
