Bad Bunny used his acceptance speech at the Grammy Awards on Sunday to denounce U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and call for the end of the ongoing immigration crackdown.
"Before I say thanks to God, I'm going to say ICE out," the Puerto Rican artist said as he accepted the Grammy for his album "Debí Tirar Más Fotos" in the música urbana album category. "We're not savage, we're not animals, we're not aliens. We are humans and we are Americans."
His statement was met with applause and standing ovations. It came as protests against ICE took place across the country this weekend, including in Los Angeles, where the 68th Annual Grammy Awards were held Sunday. The Grammys were broadcast live on CBS and streaming on Paramount+.
"Also, I want to say to the people, I know it's tough to know, not to hate on these days," Bad Bunny said. "And I was thinking, sometimes we get 'contaminado,' I don't know how to say that in English. The hate get more powerful with more hate. The only thing that's more powerful than hate is love."
In closing, he said: "So please we need to be different. If we fight, we have to do it with love. We don't hate them. We love our people. We love our family and there's a way to do it, with love, and don't forget that."

He’s so stunning and brave
I can’t remember if I ever watched the Super Bowl , maybe a glance while someone else was watching ,LOL
These people need to sneak into China without any papers because it’s their human right to be there, right?
Does this moron realize that ICE isn’t deporting Puerto Ricans?
Moron. Any HE may not be an “alien”, but there are many here that are...and he forgot to put the word “ILLEGAL” in front of it.
We used to watxh it when the ne patriots were in it, but never any other time. Then the stinking w9keness started, and we quit watching altogether. Ne patriots became extremely woke
This! There’s no other retort.
He is from Puerto Rico, which is a hell hole of a mess. Without US welfare and housing subsidies and payments and other $$$ lavished on PR. It would be like Cuba.
Bad Buns is that last thing from an illegal alien, but he’s gots to Represent for his Bros to keep selling his music<<< such that it is.
Oh no no no, that’s just silly talk. /s
Good point!
You’re not an alien. You’re an Illegal alien. Get it right.
“These people need to sneak into China without any papers...”
The Left convinced Americans to hide making them think they’ll get deported ,LOL

The dictionary says “a foreigner”….. and if your here illegally, that makes you an illegal alien. Sorry BB…
Don’t bother him with details!
It would be a lot cheaper and I’ll bet CBS and Paramount+ would get far more ratings and subs if they AI’d past Grammy Award shows for high-def and just showed reruns of old ones.
Yes, you are. Murderers, rapists, drug-dealers, slave-traders ...
we're not animals,
You're worse.
we're not aliens.
Yes, you are. Illegal aliens, no less.
We are humans
And therefore morally and legally responsible for your actions.
and we are Americans."
No, you aren't.
You are a weird-o.
My barber just cuts my hair. He doesn’t lecture me.
My mailman just delivers my mail. He doesn’t lecture me.
Etc.
What’s with these show-biz types? Why do the feel they have the right to lecture me?
