Welcome to Watchmojo and today we're counting down our picks for fun facts about Latin music icon Bad Bunny.

Number 10 he opened a Restaurant in Miami Bad Bunny and David Grutman opened a Japanese inspired steakhouse called gecko in 2020.

It's located in the Brickell neighborhood of Miami.

The place encapsulates Bad Bunny's identity as a foodie and someone interested in Japanese culture.

The Gecko menu may not feature his favorite meal, Arro consal Chicha, but

it sure has a nice selection of steak, sushi, dumplings and more dishes that arrive at the table with eye catching presentations.

The interior decor is impressive as well with neat lights, a dragon mural and velvet draped booths.

Many celebs have eaten at this luxurious spot.

Outside of music, Bad Bunny also co owns a Puerto Rican basketball franchise, but

it's his food business that wins the spot on our list.

Number nine he made Billboard History multiple Times thank you to all my fans around the world.

In 2020, Bad Bunny's third studio album, El Tumo Tor del Mundo, did something no other all Spanish language album had ever done reached number one on the US Billboard 200.

That was shortly after his second album, Yago May Delegana came as close as possible to accomplishing that feat by peaking at number two.

His fourth album, Un Verano Sinti also made history, becoming the first Spanish language album to top the Billboard 200 year end chart.

Bad Bunny has also won the most Billboard Music awards for top Latin artist.

And yeah, not a bad list of Billboard accomplishments.

Number 8 he was Spotify's most streamed artist globally in 2020, 2021 and 2022.

The most streamed artist in the world on Spotify for one year.

That's exactly what Bad Bunny achieved between 2020 and 2022.

He was the first individual to accomplish such a feat, piling up billions of listens along the way.

The streak started off with Yoago Loke mel Danagana becoming Spotify's most streamed album in 2020.

His 2020 album Un Ronano Sinti became the platform's most streamed album ever.

Bad Bunny has been on a lot of people's Spotify rap summaries, that's for sure.

Bad Bunny first appeared at Coachella in 2019.

Four years later he became the first Latin American solo artist and Spanish Spanish language singer to headline the event.

Obviously that's a huge deal when we think about just how big the festival is and all the superstars that have been a part of it over the years.

Fab Bunny was also the first Latin urban music artist to be featured on the COVID of Rolling Stone, but

his Coachella feat gets the nod for our list.

He expressed his gratitude to be a part of Coachella history along with all the big names that came before him.

He then performed all the biggest hits including Titti Mi Pregunto, Kahaita and Me Porto Bonito.

Number 6 First all Spanish language album to be nominated for the Album of the Year Grammy.

It's easy because I just made this album with love and passion.

Unbera Nocinto won multiple major awards, including a Grammy for Best Musica Urbana album at the 65th annual Grammy Awards.

For it to be nominated for Album of the Year, though, that was unprecedented.

No other fully Spanish album had ever accomplished that feat in the famous ceremony's several decades of history.

No, it did not win the award for Album of the Year, but

the mere nomination highlighted Bad Bunny's success on the Biggest Music Awards stage stage.

On a historic night for Bad Bunny and Spanish language music, it was fitting that the Puerto Rican opened the ceremony with performances of two songs from his record breaking album.

Number 5 he's a wwe superfan and wrestler.

Being such a big WWE fan, it's not hard to imagine Bad Bunny performing at one of their events.

He performed the song Booker T at royal rumble in 2021, but that was only the beginning.

Setting the stage for his WWE career, Bad Bunny started appearing on Monday Night Raw and at other WWE events like WrestleMania 37 where he made his in ring debut.

So yeah, there are other sides to Bad Bunny besides just the singer and WWE wrestler is one of the more interesting ones.

Number four He Worked at a supermarket before fame.

Before becoming a global superstar, Bad Bunny was bagging groceries.

While in college, he worked part time at Econo Supermarket in Puerto Rico.

During that period he was also making music and uploading it to SoundCloud.

In 2016, music producers started noticing him and calling him while he was working at the store.

That year he signed with the record label Hear this Music, quit his job at the supermarket and the rest is history.

We bet Bad Bunny was a great bagger who never put the eggs in harm's way.

Number three he wanted to conceal his identity.

Hey guys, I'm gonna be a recording artist.

While chopping it up with James Corden during the carpool karaoke segments of the comedian's late night talk show, Bad Bunny described his initial approach to fame and his musical Persona.

He originally envisioned himself wearing a bunny mask to hide his identity.

This kind of artist that, like, they don't reveal his his identity, right?

The face behind all those popular songs would have literally matched his stage name.

Instead, he went with the flow, as he himself said it.

Putting his previous hesitation about fame aside and ditching the bunny mask idea.

You know, I never wanted to be so famous, but then I just went with the flow.

His real name, Bad Bunny, was born in Bayarmon, puerto Rico on March 10, 1994, to parents Lisa Ocasio and Tito Mart.

And believe it or not, his actual name is not Bad Bunny.

Still starts with a B, so that makes it easier to remember, right?

Benito grew up in a town on the coast of North Central Puerto Rico.

As he's mentioned before, it's not a metropolis like San Juan, where most artists in his genre have come from a small town.

The origin of the name Bad Bunny for people who don't know the story behind the name Bad Bunny, that was a childhood bunny costume, right?

So where does the name Bad Bunny come from?

Bad Bunny has discussed the idea of even bad bunnies still looking cute.

But in terms of the origin story of the alliterative name, it can be traced to a childhood photo of Benito.

When he was a kid, he had to dress up as a bunny for school one day and someone captured a picture of him.

That was a picture of me when I was a kid.

And it's funny because I always say that I was mad that that day on that picture.

According to him, he was in a bad mood that day.
