Bad Bunny keeps on making history and setting records. This past weekend, the Puerto Rican superstar took the Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour to Sydney, Australia, marking his official live debut in the country. It was a long time coming — Bad Bunny brought nearly 90,000 attendees to ENGIE Stadium with his two sold-out shows. The turnout set an attendance record, according to Live Nation Australia.

“Bad Bunny breaking records in Australia,” an Instagram post from the ticketing and promotion company wrote. In the post’s graphic, Live Nation Australia wrote that the massive crowd “mark[ed] the highest number of attendees ever at a concert at ENGIE Stadium in Sydney.”


In a review of the show, Rolling Stone Australia noted that “although only around 0.7 percent of the Australian population speaks Spanish, it’s heartening to see that most of the crowd tonight clearly do, with them regularly reacting to Bad Bunny’s Spanish language-only banter with eruptions of cheers and applause.”

Bad Bunny’s Australian attendance record is the latest win for the star as he continues to catapult his global reach. In February, the Latin superstar earned his first-ever solo Number One on the Billboard Hot 100. On Saturday, March 7, Bad Bunny will perform in Tokyo for the first time as part of Spotify’s Billions Club Live series. (The performance also marks his live debut in Asia.) He’ll then take a much-needed rest before kicking off the European leg of his Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour in May.

Rihanna Posts Documentary Proof She Is Recording Music

Rihanna, who has said she’s been working on her first new album in a decade, has now shared some cold, hard proof that she really is in the recording studio. The singer shared an 80-second Instagram Reel, “A Night in the Life,” featuring a late-night (early-morning) stop at the studio.

The video kicks off with her attending a meeting for her lingerie brand (the whole Reel is captioned “commercial break”), reviewing designs (some of which are blurred so you can’t steal them), autographing records, and getting the punch-drunk giggles at 1:30 in the morning.

Jeffrey Epstein Positioned Himself as a Cultural Savant. What Music Did He Really Listen To?

For decades, Jeffrey Epstein was considered an enigma. Often casually sporting blue jeans and mussed-up hair, the ultra-wealthy Manhattan financier held himself with an air of smugness that transcended still-frame snapshots of him.

He was notoriously well-connected, keeping an expansive and eclectic circle of royals, world leaders, titans of business, renowned scientists, and thought leaders in his pocket. Epstein positioned himself as a cultural savant, holding court with director Woody Allen and his wife Soon-Yi Previn and discussing their thoughts on Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. When he regretfully declined an invitation to attend a symposium on improvising classical music, the organizer lamented they’d miss his “musical thinking.” His Amazon account paints him as a prolific and well-rounded reader, according to Bloomberg, which went through the dozens of titles he ordered, including books on philosophy, mathematics, investment, historical figures, and “middlebrow erotica.”
