Bad Bunny Forced to Nix AMA Gig After COVID-19 Positive Test
Bad Bunny Canceled AMA Gig After Getting COVID
Bad Bunny fans now know why he didn't perform at the American Music Awards ... he's got the 'Rona.
The reggaeton superstar was originally scheduled to perform Sunday night at the AMAs, but he was MIA ... and fans started speculating COVID-19 may have been the reason why. Their suspicions were confirmed Monday by Bad Bunny's people.
There's never a good time to catch the coronavirus, but this was particularly bad for Bad Bunny -- he was supposed to perform "Dakiti" -- his #1 hit with Jhay Cortez -- for the first time.
It wasn't all bad news for Bad Bunny. He still did part of the show virtually from his L.A. crib -- as he announced the winner for Favorite Female Artist in the Latin category, which went to Becky G.
But, the best part of the night, no doubt, came when he took home 2 awards in the Latin category for Favorite Male Artist and Favorite Album, "YHLQMDLG" ... an acronym that loosely translates to "I Do Whatever the Hell I Want."
