SNL Video: Bad Bunny Is A Spanish King Not Impressed By The New World's 'Testicle-Face Chickens'

Rapper, wrestler ... King of Spain? As guest host of Saturday Night Live this week, Bad Bunny has the chance to expand his acting repertoire. Despite having more than a hundred acting credits on IMDB, only four aren't for playing himself. So does he have what it takes to make it on stage?

This is Bad Bunny's second time on SNL, but his first as host as well as musical guest. In "La Era del Descrubimiento" ("The Age of Discovery"), Fred Armisen (who last appeared on the show to support Wednesday co-star Jenna Ortega earlier this year) plays a Christopher Columbus type, fresh from the New World. He and his partner (played by Mikey Day) are excited to show their patron, the King of Spain (Bad Bunny), and his son (Marcelo Hernandez) the amazing things they've found. But since none of it is the silk and spices they were sent to collect from China, they had better be good.

So it's not a great start when they show off a turkey. While we can't imagine Thanksgiving without it today, it had to have been a letdown the first time one was shown off to European royalty. Ditto for the tomato, the pumpkin ("That melon has herpes!"), and more.

Things do get better and their other discoveries are better received – the joy shown when introduced to tobacco ("a dookie you breathe!") is hilarious. But most of the fun is in Hernandez describing a llama as "a horse, but worse" and Bunny miming "cojones" with disgust when describing the turkey's wattle.

It's genuinely exciting to see a screen full of (mostly) non-White actors doing sketch comedy. It's been happening more and more often over the past few years and you can still count on one hand the times that a sketch has been done entirely in another language. Comedy thrives on novelty, so the more new things we see, the more chances there are to make us laugh.

Watch the full sketch above and then grade this weekend's SNL:
