Bad Bunny went through the time machine for the 2026 Met Gala . He arrived at the entertainment industry’s most prestigious party as an old man, complete with a walking cane, white hair and hyper-realistic face and hand make-up.

The look is an apparent nod to the Met’s “Costume Art” exhibit, which explores the interpretation and function of fashion on aging, pregnant and differently abled bodies.
