Kendall Jenner & Bad Bunny's relationship has had the internet infuriated since they reportedly began dating in early 2023 and it's only gonna get worse. Kendall and Bad Bunny were spotted kissing on March 8 and nothing will ever be good again.
The photos of the rumored couple set Twitter alight late on March 8 when the paparazzi-shot images first appeared, seemingly confirming that Kendall and Bad Bunny are actually boyfriend and girlfriend.
You could argue that friends sometimes kiss but, yeah, no. They're almost certainly dating.
Responses came hot and heavy, with some enterprising clickbaiters even copying the same joke for the sake of all-important Twitter "likes."
We've witnessed this outrage basically every time Kendall and Bad Bunny have been romantically linked so don't expect anyone to chill out any time soon.
Why are people so upset about Kendall and Bad Bunny? Well, my pop culture-naïve friend, it all stems from two perspectives.
Bad Bunny fans are inherent defensive of their Puerto Rican popstar, for one. Bad Bunny has a squeaky-clean reputation entirely bereft of scandal. He seems like a genuinely nice, cool dude with fun taste in clothes and an album (Un Verano Sin Ti) all about spreading culture to the world.
Kendall Jenner, meanwhile, is a member of the Kardashian clan and that ought to be all you need to know.
Seriously though, Kendall and her sisters have long been accused of cultural appropriation over various misgivings.
Some have deemed Kendall a culture vulture for attempting to date Bad Bunny, as if the two were set up by a PR firm to grant Kendall a shot of cultural relevance.
Indeed, Kendall Jenner, the subject of scrutiny for everything from photoshopping a hand to wearing Nikes, could only benefit from Bad Bunny's inherently unproblematic likability.
You have to wonder what brought the pair together, otherwise. Reportedly, Kendall can't speak Spanish and Bad Bunny only possesses a rudimentary grasp of English, what else could they be bonding over besides a desire to get more famous?
