Bad Bunny proved he will age like fine wine with a head-turning appearance at the 2026 Met Gala red carpet.
The “Monaco” crooner — born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio — looked unrecognizable with facial prosthetics that made him appear 50 years older to honor the “Fashion Is Art” theme.
Makeup artist Mike Marino brought the 32-year-old’s hyper-realistic look to life with wrinkles, sunspots, and sagging facial features, leading down the latter’s neck.
Even Bunny’s hands looked aged.
He also sported a white wig, eyebrows and facial hair to bring his costume to life.
The “Dtmf” emcee wore a black suit with a massive satin bow tie. He carried a cane while posing for photographers.
Bunny’s red carpet attire appeared to be a nod to the Costume Institute’s exhibit, which will show different forms of bodies via art from the past 5,000 years, per Vogue.
Among the bodies, including pregnant to naked forms, will be the “Aging Body.”
The “Baile Inolvidable” singer told Vogue interviewer La La Anthony that he “always [tries] to do something different” for the annual star-studded event, explaining he enjoys “being creative.”
Bunny didn’t share how long he spent in the makeup chair, but said it “took a little bit,” and it was “worth it.”
The six-time Grammy winner’s iconic look was a switch-up from the brown suit and pava hat he rocked at the 2025 Met Gala.
He also made a statement in a Maison Margiela navy suit and voluminous hat while serving as a co-chair duties the year prior.
