Bad Bunny Sued Over Use of Iconic Puerto Rican Home in Short Film & Residency


Puerto Rican music superstar Bad Bunny is facing a lawsuit of at least US$1 million by 84-year-old Román Carrasco Delgado, who alleges that his home was used without proper consent in the artist’s short film “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” and replicated in the stage for Bad Bunny’s No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí residency. 


Carrasco owns a distinctive salmon-colored house with yellow trim in Humacao, Puerto Rico, which gained exposure after featuring in the January short film celebrating Bad Bunny’s album. The home later inspired a life-size replica, called La Casita, used as a central set during his 31-show residency at José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan. 


Despite permitting a location scout limited access, Carrasco claims he was misled into signing two contracts he could not read or write and was unaware of how the house’s design would later be used. He received only US$5,200, even though the short film has gathered over 22 million views. According to the lawsuit, the exposure turned his home into a tourist attraction, leading to unwanted attention, privacy invasion, and “malicious comments.” 


Carrasco’s suit names Bad Bunny and affiliated companies including Rimas Entertainment LLC, Move Concerts PR INC, and A1 Productions LLC. The case raises questions of property rights, image usage, and consent in creative works and live productions. Representatives for Bad Bunny have not yet publicly responded to the allegations.
