At this point, Bad Bunny's gender fluidity is pretty much common knowledge. The rapper has made a career out of upending rigid gender constructs and transcending generationally held prejudices about what it means to be a man. So when he was announced as the VMAs' artist of the year to a small crowd at my local bar, even the casual, non-Latinxs had some inkling of what the 28-year-old Puerto Rican artist has come to represent.
But rather than taking the stage to accept his award in the Spanglish that has become something of a trademark, Bad Bunny made us anticipate. The camera cut to Yankee Stadium, where thousands of fans waited in screaming anticipation for the artist. When Bad Bunny finally took the stage, it was through the open doors of a chapel, with an unknown bride in his arms. As the opening chords of his hit song "Tití Me Preguntó" played,...

In the coming days, Bad Bunny is set to appear opposite Brad Pitt in the summer blockbuster "Bullet Train," but don't call it a crossover. We're talking about a Puerto Rican reggaetonero who is undeniably the biggest pop music artist in the world right now and is still committed to only putting out music in Spanish.
"I never made a song thinking, Man, this is for the world. This is to capture the gringo audience. Never. On the contrary, I make songs as if only Puerto Ricans were going to listen to them. I still think I'm there making music, and it's for Puerto Ricans. I forget the entire world listens to me," he said in an interview with GQ earlier this year. Benito expressed a similar sentiment in an interview with El País last year. "Hay que romper eso de que los gringos son dioses . . . No,...

History is being made at the 75th Annual Golden Globe Awards.
While all eyes are normally on the A-listers during awards show red carpets, that changed on Sunday. As part of the "Time's Up" initiative, aiming to bring awareness to gender inequality and sexual harassment, celebrities used the ceremony to highlight the movement, as well as their plus one's -- some of the brightest, most powerful women in the industry, and the country.

As expected, the actresses -- both who are responsible for creating the movement -- walked the red carpet side-by-side, holding hands in support of change.
"We wear black for so many reasons," Longoria explained to Et. "We wear black to say, 'Time's up' on the imbalance of power and abuse of power. We wear black for all the women and whistleblowers that came forward: Asia Argento, Rosanna Arquette, Ashley Judd, Olivia Munn, Gabrielle Union, [link...

Tonight’s Golden Globes ceremony is being held in the shadow of countless reports of sexual harassment and assault uncovered in Hollywood. In order to support the victims, shine a light on these injustices, and try to move the industry away from a toxic culture, seven of Hollywood’s biggest actresses are bringing activists from the Times Up campaign as their dates. The actresses include Michelle Williams, Emma Watson, Susan Sarandon, Meryl Streep, Laura Dern, Shailene Woodley, Amy Poehler and Emma Stone. The activists include Tarana Burke, Marai Larasi, Rosa Clemente, Ai-jen Poo, Mónica Ramírez, Calina Lawrence, Billie Jean King and Saru Jayaraman.

"I don't care if Rick Ross is 40 years old -- he's a misguided 40-year-old person."
Strong words from Talib Kweli Monday as he addressed the recent controversy over Rick Ross' rap verse on the song U.O.E.N.O., in a HuffPost Live segment hosted by Marc Lamont Hill.
While Ross seems to have chalked the controversy surrounding his lyrics up to some unspecified "misunderstanding," many are not buying his explanation.
"Rick Ross condoned rape in that song ... and he should apologize, and his apology that he offered was unacceptable." Kweli continued.
Ebony Magazine's News & Life Editor Jamilah Lemieux, Washington Post columnist Rahiel Tesfamariam and activist Rosa Clemente, also participated in the segment discussing not only Ross' lyric, but also the importance of holding hip-hop artists and American communities accountable for not proactively rejecting rape culture or adequately addressing the prevalence of violence against women.

Rick Ross might be liberal with his raps about "yayo," guns and Jesus pieces, but a recent lyrics about date rape stands out from the rest.
Ross collaborated with Atlanta rapper Rocko for the single, titled "U.O.E.N.O.," off Rocko's mixtape "Gift of Gab 2." Although the mix dropped in February, the track featuring Ross is just now gaining traction because of a lyric presumably about date rape.
The lyrics in question talk about drugging a woman and taking her home. "Put molly all in her champagne/ She ain't even know it/ I took her home and I enjoyed that/ She ain't even know it," raps Ross.
Molly is the powder or crystal form of "pure" Mdma, a substance commonly found in Ecstasy, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Mdma can be an energizer, distorter and/or enhancer. It is used to "reduce inhibitions and to promote: euphoria,...
