Bad Bunny is preluding what's sure to be a very hot, vaccinated summer with a sultry mirror selfie—and for that, we are thankful.

The reggaeton star, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, took to Instagram yesterday to share a casual bathroom selfie. And fans of the musician were quick to point out his daring choice of attire: low-rise, dark-wash jeans (with a superb fit) paired with a long-sleeve, crew-neck crop top that showed off the rapper's chiseled physique. He paired the look with layered gold necklaces, a backward baseball cap, and his signature rectangular-framed sunglasses.

"Fotos de anoche," Bunny captioned the photo dump, which translates to, "Last night's photos."

The "Dakiti" singer is known for his eclectic and androgynous style, which often includes the likes of pleated skirts, statement manicures, and even full drag, which was showcased in the music video of his hit song "Yo Perreo Sola." Back in 2019, Bad Bunny spoke with GQ about his intentional choice to experiment with gender-bending fashion and gives credit to the music icons who came before him—such as Prince and David Bowie—who took similar fashion risks during their careers.

"There's people that appreciate what I do; there's people that criticize it. There's people who say, 'Thank you for sticking up [for us], thank you for defending [this].' There's others that say I'm an opportunist," he said. "If I were like other artists, I'd forget about what's happening and not say anything. [But] I think it's my responsibility, as a person of influence … to sometimes try to do what I can."

Either way, Bad Bunny's fans clearly appreciate his sense of style. Twitter was quick to fill up with hot and bothered reactions to the artist's latest social media post, and it's safe to assume that they're hungry for more. Below, we rounded up some of the thirstiest posts about Bad Bunny's crop top moment. You're welcome.
