Bad Bunny fans are quite familiar with the “Baile Inolvidable” musicians’ sense of humor. But thanks to his past appearance on Saturday Night Live, the world is now aware of his comedic chops.
In addition to his performances of “Nuevayol” and “Perfumito Nuevo” with RaiNao, yesterday (May 17) Bad Bunny added a few more SNL sketches to his comedy resume.
For the sketch “Couples At The Bar,” Bad Bunny is tasked with defending the honor of his girlfriend played by Scarlett Johansson. Let’s just say he did not pass with flying colors nor would Johansson’s real-life husband, SNL star Colin Jost approve.
As the faux couple attempted to enjoy a casual night out at the Grizzly Pear bar, Bad Bunny finds himself in a shouting match with Marcello Hernández after Johansson demands his table.
Instead of abandoning the sitting assignment, Hernández’s girlfriend played by Ego Nwodim encourages him to fend off Bad Bunny and Johansson.
With the ladies invested in a stand-off, Bad Bunny and Hernández are caught in a conundrum. Quick on their toe, the duo verbally deescalate things in Spanish while playing up the madness physically.
Equipped with subtitle translations, the hilarious exchange shows the men are already committed to the happy wife, happy life mantra regardless of how silly their requests may be.
Watch the full Saturday Night Live sketch “Couples At The Bar,” starring Bad Bunny, Scarlett Johansson, Ego Nwodim, and Marcello Hernández above.
For his performance of “Nuevayol,” Bad Bunny delivered a powerful message about the lengthy contributions of Latin people in the Big Apple. But for Bad Bunny’s second set, he decided to let loose.
Alongside collaborator RaiNao, the pair performed Debí Tirar Más Fotos track “Perfumito Nuevo.” As RaiNao opened the performance, she navigated a graffitied club bathroom with her friends.
“Tonight, I went out again, but I think I want something new / If you see me around, you don’t know me, Cinderella after midnight / I’ve already transformed, let’s get out of here / ‘Cause I like how you smell and even more how you move,” sings RaiNao.
RaiNao’s yearning is immediately answered as Bad Bunny appears in the fogged mirror. Eventually, Bad Bunny makes his way over to the restroom RaiNao occupancies gender separation be damned.
When Usher sang about wanting to make love in the club, Bad Bunny took it as a demand rather than a flirty pickup line. The duo get hot and heavy in a private stall. If Rihanna can fall in love in a hopeless place, (outside of the obvious sanitary reasons) why can’t Bad Bunny and RaiNao hook up in a club bathroom.

Bad Bunny has no intention on bringing his Debí Tirar Más Fotos Tour to the US. But the “Baile Inolvidable” musician did not leave his US fans completely high and dry. Yesterday (May 17), Bad Bunny returned to Saturday Night Live.
As the evening’s musical guest, he treated viewers to two live performances. For his first set of the night, Bad Bunny performed his Debí Tirar Más Fotos breakout “Nuevayol.”
While Bad Bunny is a proud native of Puerto Rico and staunch advocate of the island, as the track demonstrates his love extends to the mainland. To amplify the song’s admiration for Latin culture stateside, Bad Bunny used his performance as a love letter to the Latin people of New York. Sporting a New York Knicks championship hat, Bad Bunny and his dancers emphasized the cultural and societal contributions of Latin folk in the Big Apple.
The mock construction set is intentional subtly speaking to how Latin people played a major role in building this city both physical and cultural. As both the Resistance Flag and Puerto Rico’s recognized flag flashed behind Bad Bunny, he makes it clear that he stands with his people wherever they reside.
“Nuevayol” is sure to go down as a dembow classic. But the sampling of “Un Verano en Nueva York” by El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico and Andy Montañez shows that the new generation of Latin music was and will forever be rooted in its cultural staples (salsa, bachata, etc).

Twelve years after the first The Conjuring movie, James Wan has also managed to be everywhere else while guiding the franchise well past $2 billion at the global box office. Wan found time to oversee the Saw movies while stepping away for both the Aquaman films and Teacup, but he always circles back to Ed (Patrick Wilson) and Lorraine Warren (Vera Farmiga). And now, it’s the “last” time for Wan, as producer, to dramatize a hellish case handled by the Warrens’ real-life counterparts.
This will be the tenth movie in a franchise that has included a trio of Annabelle flicks, The Curse of La Llorna, and a pair of The Nun movies about Valek. To prepare for The Conjuring: Last Rites, let’s grab the rosary beads and foresee what frights will come.
Plot
James Wan wrote the screenplay for this final installment that puts The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It and The Nun II helmer Michael Chaves back in the director’s seat. After the first three movies tackled the Perron Family Haunting, the Entfield Poltergeist, and Arne Johnson’s murder defense strategy (which was not successful), the fourth movie will pick up a handful of years after the Warrens were last seen onscreen. At this point, they’ve “retired” from risking their lives to conduct exorcisms but are finding that speaking engagements aren’t paying the bills. So what next?
According to an Entertainment Weekly profile of Last Rites, that would be the Smurl family haunting, which took place in 1970s Pennsylvania, where “the Smurls, including their young daughters and Jack’s parents, claimed to experience supernatural occurrences ranging from strange odors and voices all the way to ghostly molestations.” Wilson opened up about how he wasn’t surprised that this case will close out Warrens’ run, and Farmiga weighed in:
“We’ve known about this one for a long time,” says Wilson, who watched many clips of those various TV appearances when he first started preparing to play Ed in The Conjuring 1. “Then writers are playing around with how it affects the family and what’s going on in the family’s life. That’s where we can really theatricalize it. We’re not making a documentary.”
“They’re going to witness a moment in the Warrens’ lives — and a pretty profound moment,” Farmiga says of the audience. “It’s a moment that makes time stand still. This one’s different than the others. The other three were about hauntings, and this one is about reckoning, in a way.”
The movie will also star Mia Tomlinson as Ed and Warren’s daughter, Judy, which might cause a few eyebrows to raise regarding if the torch will be passed to her. There have been no clues there, but James Wan previously told Collider, “With the Conjuring films, we are very precious about [them]. And so we kind of want to just take our time to make sure we get it right and to make sure the emotion of the Warren stories that we want to tell, and … we just want to make sure that it’s the right thing.” From the looks of the below trailer, cast and crew nailed the “right thing” for this probable finale.

Past (The Nun, Annabelle) and “present” (and even more horrifying doll), it’s all here:
Cast
Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga will take their final turns as Ed and Lorraine Warren. Also on tap? Madison Lawlor as Young Lorraine, Orion Smith as Young Ed, Mia Tomlinson as Judy Warren, and John Brotherton as Brad.
The cast further includes Molly Cartwright, Kate Fahy, Elliot Cowan, Beau Gadson, Rebecca Calder, and Ben Hardy.
Release Date
The Conjuring: Last Rites will haunt theaters on September 5.
By season 8, most live-action sitcoms are running on fumes — but not animated programs. The Simpsons season 8 featured some of the series’ best episodes, including “You Only Move Twice,” “A Milhouse Divided,” and “Hurricane Neddy,” while season 8 of South Park gave us “Good Times with Weapons,” “Awesom-O,” and “Woodland Critter Christmas.” King of the Hill was still churning out bangers that late into the show’s run, as was American Dad! (it’s the season of “Hot Water”!).
Rick and Morty is entering its eighth season. Based on how good last season was (especially the Heather Anne Campbell-written “That’s Amorte”), there’s no concern about Adult Swim’s most-watched program slowing down.
Here’s everything to know about Rick and Morty season 8.
Plot
Let’s begin with the official logline: “Rick and Morty is back for Season Eight! Life has meaning again! Anything is possible! Look out for adventures with Summer, Jerry, Beth, and the other Beth. Maybe Butter Bot will get a new task? Whatever happens, you can’t keep Rick and Morty down for long. People have tried!” Especially during the long gaps between the earlier seasons.
Showrunner Scott Marder described season 8 as having a “similar flow and vibes to six and seven, which is like a cool balance of silly and one-up canonical stuff. That’s the stuff I want as a fan. And that’s the stuff that Harmon and I work on all jammed together. I’m really proud of these last couple of seasons; they’re sort of the perfect blend of what I look for as a fan.”
Co-creator Dan Harmon (who is also working on the Community movie) added, “I will always target the episodic personally. Because, like, your job is to fight gravity. And gravity is serialization. That’s what happens organically; gravity is a great thing. But you’re supposed to want to fly.”
Based on the season 8 trailer, which you can watch below, that balance of standalone adventures and serialized lore includes Jerry going to town on a head of lettuce in an Easter-centric episode and a new haircut for Summer (the former) and Rick being paired with Space Beth (the latter).
Adult Swim has already shared the episode titles for season 8:
Episode 1: “Summer of All Fears”
Episode 2: “Valkyrick”
Episode 3: “The Rick, The Mort, & The Ugly”
Episode 4: “The Last Temptation of Jerry”
Episode 5: “Cryo Mort a Rickver”
Episode 6: “The Curicksous Case of Bethjamin Button”
Episode 7: “Ricker than Fiction”
Episode 8: “Nomortland”
Episode 9: “Morty Daddy”
Episode 10: “Hot Rick”
God bless those terrible, yet wonderful pun titles.
Cast
Rick and Morty brings back the same voice cast from season 7: Ian Cardoni as Rick, Harry Belden as Morty, Sarah Chalke as Beth, Chris Parnell as Jerry, and Spencer Grammer as Summer. No guest stars have been announced yet, but we can probably expect to hear the GOAT Keith David as the president.
Release Date
Season 8 premieres on Adult Swim on Sunday, May 25, at 11 p.m. If you can’t wait until then, there’s an April Fools’ episode on YouTube.

A second season is already in the works for this overnight phenomenon that involves apocalyptic snow, an alien invasion, and mind control. Next time, viewers can look forward to the series digging more fully into the sci-fi elements that were briefly introduced during the show’s debut. That tidbit comes from Netflix exec Francisco “Paco” Ramos, who promises a more “fully blown” treatment that will conclude this adaptation of the same-named 1957 comic by Hector G. Oesterheld.
Was the multi-year wait worth it for Tom Hardy’s starring role in The Raid franchise director Gareth Evans’ overall deal with Netflix? Yes, but news of a sequel hasn’t arrived yet despite the bonkers viewership numbers. This movie has just about everything that you’d want in a gritty cop drama, like an ambiguous ending that could take or leave a followup along with Forest Whitaker and Timothy Olyphant as a rare baddie, but damn, can the dude get away from lawman roles? Now that you ask, yep, he will soon be seen as a synth in FX and Noah Hawley’s Alien: Earth (you’re welcome).
Natasha Lyonne is doing Columbo-inspired things again while reeling in “a truly gonzo parade of guest stars” this season. They include John Mulaney, Alia Shawkat, Cynthia Erivo, Katie Holmes, Giancarlo Esposito, Haley Joel Osment, Melanie Lynskey, Taylor Schilling, Justin Theroux, and Kumail Nanjiani. If anybody had guessed five years ago that Lyonne would be collaborating with Rian Johnson in such an addictive way, would you have believed? Fortunately, we can thank Russian Doll (and Oatmeal the cat and maybe The Last Jedi) for bearing this mystery-solving fruit.
Nathan Fielder is somehow managing to top himself each week in terms of viral response. After taking on Capt. Sully Sullenberger, “birds,” and Evanescence, he’s heading to Washington, D.C. in an episode aptly titled “Washington.” Want a description? According to HBO Max, “Nathan heads to Washington.” Alright, fine.
Netflix recently announced that a second season was on the way for this Tina Fey-crafted series (starring Fey, Steve Carell, Will Forte, Colman Domingo, and more) that is happy to court The White Lotus and Nine Perfect Strangers viewers with more straight-up comedy vibes. No confirmation has surfaced on which stars will return, but considering that rather surprising death, at least one star will probably not return, but do not count out the possibility of flashbacks. Or even better, ghosts. Oooh, maybe these couples can go vacation at Colorado’s Stanley Hotel, which has long been credited with inspiring Stephen King’s The Shining. Just an idea.
This Mother’s Day movie is so Italian American that it hurts. Vince Vaughn stars as a man who puts everything on the line to honor his dearly departed mother with an Italian restaurant. Naturally, the chefs are all Italian nonnas, and co-stars include Talia Shire, Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Brenda Vaccaro alongside Linda Cardellini and Joe Manganiello. This little movie is charming as heck and is (naturally) inspired by true events. Hey, everybody loves their nonna.
Nobody can deny that Alexander Skarsgård is objectively sexy, but here, he’s portraying an unsexy robot (good luck with that) who would really prefer to bingewatch futuristic soap operas while being taxed with protecting and serving idiotic humans. So far, the fan response (from The Murderbot Diaries readers) is that the series nails the tone and spirit of the source material. And because David Dastmalchian is in every cool project these days (including Dexter: Resurrection), you know he is in this, too. Whew.
Tom Hardy has admitted to Esquire that his wildly embraced role as a fixer in this Guy Ritchie show wasn’t something that he was so sure about. Actually, he confessed to finding Ritchie too “macho” at first, but this impression yielded to Hardy realizing that Ritchie’s “a sort of punchiness and an energy” truly “had an edge to it. It had something.” He further explained that his Harry Da Souza character was the perfect counterpoint to his Venom trilogy. Whatever the case, audiences are digging it.
Well, the series finale has finished the Diego Luna-starring precursor to Rogue One, and Cassian has now achieved true rebel-hero evolution in the face of the imperial threat. As creator Tony Gilroy summed up of connecting the final dots before cinematic liftoff, “That sh*t laid down really clean,” and “presented itself without the incredible amount of effort that was anticipated.” Despite some controversy over the tenth chapter of this season, the twelfth and final installment has left both critics and audience members swooning over alleged perfection.
Showrunner Craig Mazin previously suggested that the show wasn’t quite done with Pedro Pascal’s Joel, and the audience has learned that this wasn’t simply a tease. Prepare yourself for upcoming flashback scenes that will fill in some context on why Joel and Ellie’s relationship deteriorated to the degree that it did, and this week might actually deliver another bottle episode as Mazin and Neil Druckmann previously promised would surface. And nobody can say no to more Pedro Pascal, it’s simply not possible.
Initially, thought Beyoncé’s name-drop was a cruel prank, or so she said during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.
“I thought somebody was messing with me,” she said after revealing she learned about the moment via text. “And then, I was like, ‘OK, it’s in a song, maybe it’s quick.’ And then when I found out what it actually was, it was her paying homage to all of the women who inspire her, that really moved me.”
She later chimed: “And by the way, it’s not like she just used me cause she needed someone — she said Grace Jones twice. That means she really wanted to say my name. I’m very, very honored to this day. I love her very, very much. And, yeah, I’m still gooped and gagged.”
Lizzo then went to gush about attending the Renaissance World Tour live. “And she put me in the family,” she said.” I’m next to Kelly [Rowland], I’m next to Solange.”
As you can see Lizzo’s soul is far from broken.

Lorde is in the middle of a new musical era. But even dropping a new “What Was That,” announcing album Virgin and its supporting Ultrasound tour, Lorde as still stuck on her old releases.
So much so that Lorde’ 2013 track “Ribs,” off of Pure Heroine, even landed a spot on Billboard Hot 100 chart. Albeit No. 99, Lorde is impressed nonetheless. During a sit down with Rolling Stone, Lorde is proud of the song’s resurgence.
“It’s crazy that it works on people still,” she said. “It’s a mystery to me.”
Lorde then went on to draw a connection between her prior project (Pure Heroine) and forthcoming body of work (Virgin).
“I’m now seeing that Virgin has this connection to Pure Heroine,” she added. “And to this young, brave part of myself. I’m seeing that all these albums have connective tissue. Having ‘Ribs’ bubble up next to songs I’ve written when I was 28. I can’t wait to see what continues to bubble up when more of this album is out. What are the connections going to be?”
After months of online speculation, Cardi B confirmed her budding romance with New England Patriots’ wide receive Stefon Diggs by attending the Eastern Conference semifinals together. But the couple’s Madison Square Garden courtside cameo ruffled a few feathers including podcasters Rory and Mal.
On a recent episode of the New Rory And Mal podcast, the duo shared their thoughts and a few jokes. Well, Cardi B did not find the remarks funny. In her Instagram broadcast channel, BG Secret Society (viewable here), Cardi B defended her relationship with Diggs amid the ongoing divorce from Offset.
“No sympathy sh*t ‘cause I live and learn and I been through worse in my life, but I went through so much shit,” she wrote in an exchange with fans. “I don’t tell my story and put these nasty b*tches on blast cause I seen God handle every woman and the men that put tears in my eyes and pain in my heart.”
She continued: “When a white man like Rory talking about I need to be held accountable for shit he don’t know one thing about really makes me see red. This is not a competition this is me taking baby steps to finally feeling happy and seeing my sky blue with birds and trees again instead of rainy days.”
Cardi closed the note, writing: “I feel lightweight motivated in love with life, in love with love, in love with my career, and most importantly in love with my three kids no matter what.”
She ended with a fiery jab at Rory. “[Shut the f*ck up] you white b*tch,” she penned. “Before I light a match up your ass.”
Still, it appears that rollout blip has not had a negative impact on the album’s success. Yesterday (May 16), Spotify revealed Morgan Wallen’s I’m The Problem made history on the streaming platform. Mere hours after its release, Spotify confirmed the album was its top country album for the year.
“Morgan Wallen just made country history—again,” wrote Spotify on X (formerly Twitter).
The platform expanded on the statistic with a graphic, which read: “On Friday, May 16, Morgan Wallen’s ‘I’m The Problem’ became Spotify’s most-streamed country album in 2025 so far.”
Other prominent projects released this year includes Blake Shelton’s For Recreational Use Only, Turnpike Troubadours’ The Price Of Admission, Kane Brown’s The High Road, Jason Isbell’s Foxes In The Snow, and Eric Church’s Evangeline vs. The Machine.
The Billboard 200 chart with Morgan Wallen’s I’m The Problem tracking metrics won’t be unveiled for another week or so. But, given Wallen’s track record of chart domination I’m The Problem is projected to land in the top 10.
I’m The Problem is out now via Big Loud Records/Mercury Records. Find more information here.
