Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny turned heads on the Met Gala red carpet Monday night as the singer sported an unusual getup that seemed to prove some things do get better with age.
Bad Bunny (or Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) showed up to the event rocking a cane and an all-black tuxedo, designed in collaboration with Zara, and his hair and goatee visibly gray, giving the world a preview of what the musician will look like in his golden years.
Bad Bunny also sported prosthetics designed by makeup artist Mike Marino to aid in the artificial aging process. Marino is the artist behind many of supermodel Heidi Klum’s fantastic Halloween costumes over the years – and her artistic 2026 Met Gala outfit.
According to a Vogue report, the prosthetics were created by Marino after a conversation with Bad Bunny about how aging would affect his face, neck and hands. The process for aging up the singer was reportedly hyper-focused on realism.
His aged look was a tribute to the many body types explored in the Costume Institute’s 2026 exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. “Perhaps reflecting our fear of having to face our own mortality, the youth-oriented fashion industry has traditionally ignored the aged body,” one text in the exhibition reads.
Bad Bunny has attended the Met Gala five times since his debut in 2022, even serving as a co-chair in 2024.
