Puerto Rico star Bad Bunny has tested positive for coronavirus, forcing him to pull out of the American Music Awards.

Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, was set to perform his latest hit “Dakiti” alongside frequent collaborator Jhay Cortez at the ceremony on Monday, but cancelled without offering an explanation.
