Bad Bunny is ready to take summer by storm, but first, he’s performing as the musical guest during the season finale of Saturday Night Live this weekend.
In promos for the May 17 finale of season 50 shared on Thursday (May 15), the superstar appears alongside host Scarlett Johansson and SNL mainstay Kenan Thompson, with the trio hilariously discussing their plans during the show’s summer hiatus.
“Umm…I guess just doing awesome stuff,” Bad Bunny replies after Thompson asks what he’ll be up to during the summer months. “Oh, yeah? Like what?” Johansson follows up, to which the 10-time Grammy nominee answers, “Just awesome stuff, don’t worry about it. My life is awesome, especially in summer.”
That evasive answer wasn’t good enough for Thompson, who couldn’t resist doubling down and asking for just a single example of all the awesome things Bad Bunny plans on doing. The Calvin Klein model’s admittedly awesome answer? “Eating breakfast for dinner.”
An earlier segment features Johansson excitedly positing that the season finale will be even bigger, better and longer than the recent SNL50 anniversary special — much to the chagrin of Thompson, who points out that the NBC celebration was “like nine hours, so…”
Only when the Black Widow actress suggests that the episode could be more star-studded than SNL50 does the “DTMF” rapper step in to take Thompson’s side, chiding, “Now you’re just being unrealistic.” (“Yeah, what Bad Bunny said,” Thompson amusingly seconds.)
The SNL stint arrives at a rather fortuitous time for Bad Bunny, whose latest album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, just bounced back to the apex of the Billboard 200 following its vinyl release.
