Overview

  • Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Aug. 12, Butler said he ate an edible before realizing he was standing on a secondary casita stage at Bad Bunny’s Puerto Rico residency.
  • He described his mind as “in two movies,” torn between celebrating Puerto Rican culture with dance and not drawing attention away from Bad Bunny’s performance.
  • To balance his excitement and deference, Butler said he crossed his arms and swayed his hips instead of dancing openly.
  • Fallon aired the viral clip of Butler’s brief swaying moment, which circulated widely online in the days following the concert.
  • The anecdote coincides with Butler’s upcoming co-starring role alongside Bad Bunny in Darren Aronofsky’s Caught Stealing, set to open Aug. 29.
