Bad Bunny has made Emmy history in Los Angeles after his performance in Happy Gilmore 2 helped land the Netflix sequel a landmark set of nominations on Wednesday, an outcome fans say sharply undercuts Donald Trump following the US president's public feud and 'hatred' toward the Puerto Rican star.
Trump and Bad Bunny clashed in 2020 after the rapper used his music and public platform to criticise the then-president's handling of Latino communities and hurricane relief in Puerto Rico. Trump's allies derided Bad Bunny as a 'political prop,' while the artist's supporters framed him as part of a new generation of unapologetically political Latino entertainers. That four-year-old culture war row is now being replayed on social media through the prism of Emmy night.
