Bad Bunny has revealed he deliberately chose not to bring his sold-out world tour to the United States because of concerns that ICE could target his concerts. In an interview with i-D magazine, the Puerto Rican superstar explained that his decision was driven by concerns that Immigration and Customs Enforcement might hone in on the communities that attend his shows. "There were many reasons why I didn't show up in the US, and none of them were out of hate. I've performed there many times," he said, describing his past shows there as "successful". "All of them have been magnificent." The DTMF singer stressed that the possibility of immigration authorities targeting his audience weighed heavily on him and his team. "There was the issue of, like, f**king ICE could be outside. And it's something that we were talking about and very concerned about." The artist has not shied away from denouncing ICE in the past. In June, he uploaded a profanity-laced Instagram story showing what appeared to be an ICE raid in Avenida Pontezuela, Puerto Rico, captioning it simply, "ice." His post came amid a months-long immigration crackdown that, according to NPR, has resulted in more than 500 arrests since January.
