Bad Bunny sparked concern over the weekend after appearing to injure his knee during his Puerto Rico residency.
The incident, captured in a viral TikTok video, occurred while the reggaeton superstar performed at his No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí residency in San Juan.
In the clip, posted by fitness instructor @rosa.pilatestx, the three-time Grammy winner was seen entertaining the crowd before breaking into playful “bunny hops.” However, on his final jump, Bad Bunny appeared to land awkwardly, limping off to the side while exclaiming “Aye” to the audience.
The TikTok caption humorously noted, “When you are over 30 and your knees remind you that you need to do pilates,” referencing the 31-year-old singer’s sudden stumble. Fans shared both concern and amusement across social media, with many speculating about the extent of the injury.
@rosa.pilatestx 💖Get your knees stronger with Pilates! ( always check with your dr if you have pain & stop the exercise if you have a lot of pain) Do these exercises at least 3x a week & you will notice a huge difference in your body & knees! #badbunny #badbunnypr #pilates #pilatesinstructor #latinapilates

Fortunately, the moment occurred toward the end of the residency, which concludes on September 14 after three more scheduled performances. Since July, the San Juan residency has featured surprise appearances by stars including LeBron James, Austin Butler, and Javier Bardem.
Looking ahead, Bad Bunny will embark on a massive 56-date international stadium tour in November to promote his sixth studio album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos. In a previous interview with Variety, he explained that performing in Puerto Rico allows him to stay grounded, calling it a way to resist “living in a detached reality.”
Despite the stumble, fans remain hopeful that the chart-topping artist will recover quickly before his highly anticipated world tour.
