Bad Bunny’s SNL monologue is crashed by Jon Hamm as rapper pokes fun at his viral Puerto

Bad Bunny took on hosting duties for SNL‘s season 51 premiere – and the rapper’s opening monologue was humorously crashed by Jon Hamm.

The 31-year-old music artist – who is set to headline the Super Bowl LX Halftime Show early next year – reflected on his recent Puerto Rican residency and talked about the celebrities who had also been attendance.

A few months earlier in August, Hamm went viral after footage showed him grooving at Bad Bunny’s concert. 

At the time, the Mad Men alum donned a bucket hat and patterned shirt while also holding a drink in his hand as he showcased his dance moves. 

‘Some celebrities came to my show. Few of them were on drugs,’ Bad Bunny told the live audience. ‘And I don’t want to say who, but this was Jon Hamm.’ 

The reel was then played, causing the crowd to erupt into laughter. ‘Actually, that wasn’t Jon Hamm, that was Juan Jamon,’ the star joked. 

The camera then cut to Hamm in the live audience as he flashed a big smile while mimicking the dance moves. 

The actor also sported the same outfit he had worn to the concert as the audience broke out into applause over the surprise cameo. 

‘I think he’s obsessed with me,’ Bad Bunny added.

The music artist also poked fun at his own choreography during his performances on stage. 

‘I just finished a 31-show residency in Puerto Rico and I’m still kind of tired because the shows are three hours long and there’s a lot of complicated choreography,’ he explained. 

A short video then showed the rapper slowly jumping from left to right rather than doing complicated dance moves. 

‘That looked simple, but that took me a long time to learn,’ Bad Bunny told the crowd. ‘Trust me.’  

The rapper also referenced to his upcoming headlining gig at the Super Bowl Halftime Show next year in February. 

‘Anyway, you might not know this, but I’m doing the Super Bowl Halftime Show. And I’m very happy, and I think everyone is happy about it.’ 

The star also shared, ‘And I know that people all around the world who love my music are also happy.’

Bad Bunny then began to speak in Spanish, with people from the live audience continuing to cheer in response. 

He briefly paused and instead of translating, he jokingly added, ‘And if you didn’t understand what I just said, you have four months to learn.’ 

The performer had the chance to show off his comedic skills while appearing a number of skits throughout the night. 

In one, Bad Bunny played a character named Thomas who was joining his pals for brunch to catch up. 

The group talked about films that they want to see, such as Leonardo DiCaprio’s latest movie One Battle After Another as well as Netflix’s Frankenstein. 

The rapper then said he enjoyed the animated movie KPop Demon Hunters – which dropped on Netflix in August. 

One of his friends asked if he had watched it with his kids, but Bad Bunny said he didn’t have any kids and watched it on his own. 

He then explained to the group, ‘It’s actually not for kids but for smart adults.’ 

They changed the topic to music, and Bad Bunny admitted that he loved the music from KPop Demon Hunters. 

‘You like the songs, too? That’s cool Thomas,’ one his pals said.

However, Bad Bunny passionately added, ‘Actually, it’s not cool, dog. In KPop Demon Hunters, songs are not just songs, but weapons.’

‘Weapons?’ one friend asked, and the rapper replied, ‘Duh, what else is going to save you from demons, you idiots?’

After they began to get into a heated exchange, the star zoned out of the conversation. His thoughts then could be heard out loud: ‘Those dumb idiots have no idea, stupid dummies. I don’t care if they believe me. I have HUNTR/X on my side.’ 

HUNTR/X is the fictional K-Pop group in the movie. 

Suddenly, Ejae, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami – the trio behind the fictional group – then also popped up in his head as they belted out lyrics to the hit track Golden.  

Bad Bunny was pulled back into the conversation as his pals talked about serious matters going on in their lives – but his thoughts kept being drawn to the world of KPop Demon Hunters. 

But then the Demon Jinu – played by Bowen Yang – appeared inside the restaurant.

‘Oh my God!’ one of the friends exclaimed. ‘Does he have a gun?’ 

Yang then replied, ‘Even worse, I have a voice,’ before taking out a microphone and singing. 

Bad Bunny’s friends apologized for not taking KPop Demon Hunters seriously and Ejae, Audrey Nuna and Rei Ami appeared on the SNL stage to belt out Golden to defeat the demon. 

The audience erupted into cheers at the surprise cameo and the skit came to a close as the cast members and Bad Bunny all danced along to the upbeat track. 

The rapper also appeared in another sketch where he played a contestant on Jeopardy! The two other contestants had already won money, while Bad Bunny’s character Duke had negative $18K. 

It became apparent that he didn’t understand how to play the game and kept losing money due to not working the answers he gave as a question.  

The game show host – played by Andrew Dismukes – continued to explain how to answer a question, but Bad Bunny kept doing the opposite, despite having correct answers. 

The host started to grow impatient and said, ‘Okay, Duke, I’m just going to throw you a bone and give you “Known As” for 400, which is a daily double. Duke, how much do you want to wager?’ 

Bad Bunny decided to wager $1 million. 

He then needed to answer in the form of a question: ‘Formed in 1964 London, this band was formerly known as “The Detours.”‘

Frustrated, Bad Bunny said, ‘I’m sorry, I just don’t understand this game. Who is the what, what is the who?’ 

The answer was The Who – and since he formed it into a question by accident, he won the $1 million, leaving the host and contestants in shock. 

Another sketch took place in the past when the Spanish language was new – and Bad Bunny appeared to take on the role of king in Spain. 

‘But I was thinking, what if we made it harder to learn. So I had an amazing idea,’ he told those sitting around him.  

He then suggested that, ‘Every word is a boy or a girl,’ and gave examples of la noche and el oceano. 

But people were left in confusion when someone said that dress is a girl, but Bad Bunny corrected them and said that was not the case. 

Benicio del Toro – who recently starred in One Battle After Another – then made a surprise cameo to explain the formal and informal versions of ‘You.’ 

The live audience began to cheer and applaud upon recognizing the special guest. 

The actor also suggested that the letter R should be rolled and also explained the importance of taking a nap in the middle of the day. 

Everyone – including Bad Bunny – thought the latter was a brilliant idea.  

The skit came to an end when Bad Bunny’s assistant – played by Marcello Hernandez – said, ‘Okay, I think that’s enough progress for today. Whoever doesn’t die of disease in the night, I’ll see you tomorrow.’

The rapper also took part in a pre-recorded skit that was centered around AI and Chat GPT.  

Chloe Fineman starred in an advertisement and discussed the negative sides of Chat GPT. 

‘Some users want a more authentic experience, more opinionated and real. That’s why we’re proud to introduce ChatGPTio, the first AI that feels like talking to a Latino uncle,’ she explained. 

One person asked, ‘ChatGPTio, what are signs my dog might be depressed?’

Marcello Hernandez then appeared on the phone and answered, ‘Who cares? It’s a dog, man.’ 

‘The knowledge, know-how and unfiltered opinions of a Latino uncle at your fingertips,’ Fineman added. 

Another person then asked, ‘What’s a good anniversary gift for my wife?’ Hernandez was joined by Bad Bunny – who played his friend named Carlito. 

The pair continued to give unfiltered opinions and answers until the skit came to an end with Fineman looking down at her phone as it took a picture. 

‘Did you make my phone take a picture of me?’ she asked, and Bad Bunny denied it but her phone continued to take photos of her. 

One humorous sketch during the night included Chloe Fineman and Sarah Sherman playing a couple and grabbed dinner at a restaurant with a close friend – played by Andrew Dismukes. 

The pair talked about their friendship and then revealed to him that they wanted to have a baby – and asked Dismukes if he would be a donor so they could achieve that dream. 

‘It’s a really big decision, is it okay if I think it over?’ he asked, and the couple told him that was fine. 

However, Bad Bunny – who played a customer – had been eavesdropping and volunteered to be the one to do it. 

Fineman and Sherman explained to the rapper that they had no idea who he was. 

‘Well, my name is Elviro Gutierrez, and one fun fact about me is I think the ending of The Sopranos was perfect,’ he said. 

Dismukes stepped outside to make a call to decide if he should be a donor and left, leaving Bad Bunny alone with Fineman and Sherman. 

‘I said, I could give you some of my stuff,’ he insisted. ‘And then you could do whatever you want with it. You can put in the front, you can put in the back. It’s up to you.’ 

However, they turned him down once again. 

But then, another patron inside the restaurant – played by Kenan Thompson – approached the table and said he would ‘take it.’ 

Bad Bunny explained that he wants to be a father but Dismukes returned to share that his fiancee agreed to let him be a donor. 

Everyone then left, leaving Bad Bunny alone at the table. But someone else entered dressed just like him and it was revealed that it was his son.
