Austin Butler Attributes Viral Sway to Edible, Unplanned Casita Stage Spot

The moment ties into promotion for their upcoming film Caught Stealing, which opens Aug. 29.

Overview

  • On The Tonight Show, Butler said he ate an edible shortly before attending Bad Bunny’s No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí residency in Puerto Rico.
  • He explained he didn’t realize he’d been placed in a “casita,” a secondary stage and VIP section that left him unexpectedly on display.
  • Torn between dancing and deferring to Bad Bunny’s moment, Butler opted to sway with crossed arms to avoid stealing focus.
  • A clip of his reserved swaying quickly went viral on social media, generating widespread commentary on celebrity comportment.
  • Butler and Bad Bunny co-star in Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing, tying his concert cameo to the film’s August 29 release.
