Bad Bunny kisses male dancer during performance at MTV VMAs

Some people celebrated the big moment while others accused the Puerto Rican singer of queer-baiting.

Bad Bunny has set social media alight after kissing a male dancer during his performance at the 2022 MTV VMAs.

The Puerto Rican singer was in the middle of singing 'Tití Me Preguntó', which means 'Tití asked me' in English, when the kiss happened.

He also kissed a female dancer during the performance.

When the moment happened during the glitzy ceremony at Yankee Stadium in New York, people flocked to social media to put their two cents in.

Some people said it was an awesome display of support, but others accused him of pretending to be a part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

One person wrote: "He needs to stop queerbaiting."

Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has previously stated that he identifies as heterosexual but didn't rule out being sexually fluid in the future.

Two years ago, he told the LA Times that being straight doesn't define him.

“At the end of the day, I don’t know if in 20 years I will like a man. One never knows in life," he said.

He added: “But at the moment I am heterosexual and I like women.”

Ocasio has been a vocal supporter of the LGBTQIA+ community and for people doing what they want to do.

He's worn dresses in magazine editorials and also showed off painted nails.

Bad Bunny became the first non-English-language act to take out Artist of the Year at the 2022 MTV VMAs.

Speaking of queer-baiting, Harry Styles was another singer who recently got accused of pretending to be queer in order to appeal to more people.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, the ‘As It Was’ singer pointed out how ridiculous he reckons the whole argument is.

He said: “Sometimes people say, ‘You’ve only publicly been with women,’ and I don’t think I’ve publicly been with anyone.

“If someone takes a picture of you with someone, it doesn’t mean you’re choosing to have a public relationship or something.”

On his private life, Styles added: “I’ve never talked about my life away from work publicly and found that it’s benefited me positively.

“There’s always going to be a version of a narrative, and I think I just decided I wasn’t going to spend the time trying to correct it or redirect it in some way.”
