Bad Bunny says he was completely comfortable sharing his first onscreen kiss with a man: 'That's the penalty' for being with 'so many women'

• Bad Bunny has opened up on his first onscreen kiss being with a man.
• "That's the penalty I get for being with so many women during my life," he told Time magazine.

Bad Bunny has said his first onscreen kiss being with actor Gael García Bernal was a "penalty" for having been with so many women.

The reggaeton superstar plays Bernal's lover in "Cassandro," the upcoming biopic of a gay professional wrestler from El Paso, Texas, directed by Roger Ross Williams.

The film, which premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival in January, will release on Amazon Prime Video later this year.

"My first kiss for a movie and it was with a man," Bunny told Time magazine in an interview published on Tuesday. "That's the penalty I get for being with so many women during my life."

The 29-year-old rapper added, however, that he was completely comfortable with the moment because he was acting and "being someone you're not."

"When they asked me for that, I said, 'Yes, I'm here for whatever you want.' I think it was very cool; I didn't feel uncomfortable," he said.

Elsewhere in his interview with Time, Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, was asked about his reported romance with Kendall Jenner.

Rumors of the pair's romance first came about in February when DeuxMoi, an Instagram account that publishes celebrity gossip, shared a post claiming the two kissed while at a Los Angeles club.

They've since been spotted hanging out on numerous occasions, even going on a double date with Hailey and Justin Bieber.

Though he declined to comment on the rumors, Bunny suggested that he was aware of Latino social media users seeing his and Jenner's potential romance as a betrayal of his Puerto Rican roots.

"When I read comments that say, 'Bad Bunny now I'm not going to listen to your music,' that's fine. I'm not going to do something else for you to like it. There are plenty of artists, and perhaps you'll find someone you'll like," he said.
