Bad Bunny hit the red carpet for the NYC premiere of “Caught Stealing” on Tuesday night.
He chatted with “Extra’s” about his gangster role in the movie and addressed speculation that he might be a surprise collab on Taylor Swift’s upcoming album “The Life of a Showgirl.”
Since Bad Bunny did rub honey all over Taylor’s new fiancé Travis Kelce in “Happy Gilmore 2,” some fans have speculated he could be on the track “Honey.”
Bad Bunny shut down rumors, saying, “I don’t think so. No, no, no.” He admitted of the “Honey” buzz, “I didn’t know anything about it.”
Bad Bunny also reflected on how he enjoys acting versus making music and performing. He’s currently in the middle of his “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí” residency in Puerto Rico.
Comparing the two, the rapper said, “When you’re performing, you’re in front of a lot of people, they’re watching you right there. When you are acting and doing these movies, you know that they’re going to see, they’re going to watch you, but not… you can feel like it’s more something personal.”
Bad Bunny connects to both acting and performing, explaining, “You can express your feeling and be whoever you want… In music, I try to be more of myself and movies, you can live another life and be another person.”
He said his “Caught Stealing” role “so much fun,” adding, “I felt free because this is the first Puerto Rican role, and I was waiting for that for so long.”
Bad Bunny hopes the audience will enjoy his acting, saying, “I hope the people like what I did, that people like my job ’cause I made it with so much love and passion.”
“Caught Stealing” is out August 29.
