Everything We Know About the Horses on Bad Bunny’s Most Wanted Tour

Bad Bunny riding a horse at his Most Wanted Tour shouldn’t come as a surprise. After all, the vibe is cowboy aesthetic, with fans adopting Western wear, cowboy boots and hats as outfit inspiration for the trek.

For the full cowboy effect, the Puerto Rican superstar — wearing a royal blue suit with fringes — rides out from backstage on a horse at the beginning of the second act of his show. It’s more than one horse that Bad Bunny is traveling with on his Most Wanted Tour, which kicked off a week ago in Utah. Bucky and Trumpet are the horses on tour with El Conejo Malo. So far, Bunny has been riding Bucky. Bad Bunny also travels with the horses’ trainer and the owner.

As expected, fans roared at the sight of Bad Bunny on a horse (although PETA qualified the stunt as an “irresponsible act”). It was perhaps the first time a reggaeton artist incorporated a horse in their show.

But horses in Latin concerts are not that uncommon. For many years, regional Mexican legacy artists — like Joan Sebastian, Antonio Aguilar and Vicente Fernández — honed their horse-riding skills while also singing, although artists who can sing and ride a horse at the same time today are anomalies. Mexican star Pepe Aguilar is among the few who have continued the tradition.

Besides the horse spectacle, Bad Bunny’s Most Wanted Tour also includes a grand performance by The Philharmonic Orchestra Project, under the leadership of Carlitos Lopez. Spanning two hours, the show is divided into four segments, guiding the audience through Bunny’s musical facets.

The Most Wanted Tour continues with a second night at at the Footprint Center in Phoenix on Wednesday (Feb. 28).
