The president of the Generalitat, Salvador Illa, accompanied singer Bad Bunny this Sunday at the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, with whom he immortalized the moment with a selfie photo that the head of the Government has published on his official Instagram account.

Few details are known about the backstory of this snapshot, beyond the fact that Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, the artist’s real name, did not want to leave Barcelona without visiting the temple, and that he did so as discreetly as possible, with the outfit seen in the image: cap, sunglasses, and hood, to try not to be recognized by the other visitors.
Bad Bunny visited the Sagrada Familia, which will receive a visit next month from Pope Leo XIV, and it so happens that the Pontiff has shown special interest in meeting the Puerto Rican artist.
Bad Bunny’s presence in the Barcelona temple comes thanks to the concert series that the Puerto Rican artist has started in Barcelona, with which he has inaugurated his European tour. The artist has given two consecutive concerts at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium, held last Friday and Saturday, and has planned another 10 at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano in Madrid (May 30 and 31 and June 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14, and 15) for which more than 600,000 tickets have been sold.
After his time in Spain, Bad Bunny will perform in European cities such as Lisbon, London, Paris, or Brussels, where he will close the tour on July 22, 57 concerts later.
Bad Bunny is the artist of the moment thanks to his latest album ‘I Should Have Taken More Photos’, which also gives the tour its name. In 2025 he became a musical phenomenon thanks to this album and his performance at the Super Bowl, but a week earlier he received the Grammy for best Latin album while launching a political critique of the deportations initiated by the Trump administration.
