Bad Bunny Lays Hands on Museum Exhibit, Prompting Official Scolding

Music superstar Bad Bunny is in a bit of hot water after putting his paws on a protected museum exhibit in Mexico on a recent visit … and he even posted pics of his transgression.

Now that Bad Bunny’s done with his ongoing residency in Puerto Rico, he’s been playing tourist … and at a stop in Mexico City, the singer visited the National Museum of Anthropology to take in the culture.

Like most museums, visitors are not allowed to handle objects or displays … but as you can see from one of the pics BB posted himself — he’s since taken it down — he took a moment to lay hands on a stone monument carved with ancient insignia during his visit.

Spanish-language news site KCH FM reports museum security reacted right away during the December 17 incident and warned him to keep his mitts off the goods. The museum officially posted a reminder on socials to the public that no matter how famous you are, you gotta respect the history, and the rules … don’t engage in “Direct manipulation of an archaeological stele” … the technical term for the carved stone monument.
