How Bad Bunny got his name

How did Bad Bunny (born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) get his stage name? He explained the origin of the unusual name during an interview with E! News. The star revealed the name came from a childhood photo. In the picture, he wore a white bunny costume—and he wasn’t happy about it.

“That name comes from a picture when I was a kid. I think I was 6 years old,” he tells E! News. “I was so mad. That was Easter day in school, and the teacher picked me to dress up.”
