Hey, music lovers! Ricky Martin just penned a super heartfelt open letter to the one and only Bad Bunny, celebrating his amazing Grammy win! On a night that shook the music world, Bad Bunny took home three Grammy awards, including the big one for Album of the Year with 'Debí Tirar Más Fotos.' And here's the cherry on top: he did it entirely in Spanish, marking a first in Grammy history!
Ricky's letter, shared in Puerto Rico's El Nuevo Día, was titled 'When One of Ours Succeeds, We All Succeed,' and it's packed with praise for Bunny's epic achievements! Ricky Martin was all up in his feels, writing in Spanish (shoutout to Billboard for the translation), 'Benito, brother, seeing you win was deeply touching. Not just as an artist, but as a Puerto Rican carrying our language and culture around the world!'
Martin continues with a mic-drop moment, 'You succeeded without letting go of where you come from. You showed us it's a cultural and human victory by staying true to Puerto Rico. No need to soften your Spanish or hide your roots, and the world is watching and cheering!'
Feeling the emotion yet? Bad Bunny even made Ricky get a lump in his throat during the Grammys! 'Seeing the entire audience go silent when you spoke, defending immigrants and confronting a tough system—that place where fear and hope coexist—was so powerful,' Martin expressed.
Ricky Martin wrapped it up beautifully, 'This one's for a generation you inspired to be unapologetically themselves because success and authenticity are indeed besties! From one Boricua to another, thank you for the reminder that when one of us succeeds, we all do.'
And guess what? Get ready because Bad Bunny is making waves again! He's set to deliver the first-ever Super Bowl halftime show headlined in Spanish. Yep, he promised in the show trailer, 'The world will dance.'
ICYMI, during his Grammy acceptance speech, Bad Bunny dedicated his award to all those who chased their dreams and to the Latino artists who paved the way for his historic moment. This guy is on fire with 16 Grammy nominations and three wins to his name!
Stay tuned, because this is only the beginning of more historic moments and epic performances from the one and only Bad Bunny!
