Bad Bunny's Bubble Bath Thirst Trap Steams Up Instagram

Kilian Melloy READ TIME: 2 MIN.

You might need a cold shower after you get a glimpse of Bad Bunny's bubble bath thirst trap.

The international pop star brought the thirst to Instagram with a group of five photos captioned simply, "baño" - Spanish for "bath." In this case it was a bubble bath, with some strategically placed bubbles!

The first photo is simply the "Soy Peor" singer looking into the camera, his skin glistening with moisture as he leans back in what looks to be a bath tub hewn from stone. Suds are visible on the surface of the water, clinging to his shoulders and gathered between his pectorals. Several of the singer's tattoos are plainly visible on his chest and left arm, including a tat of a rabbit.

The second of the photos shows a slightly out-of-focus Bad Bunny staring into the camera lens, his head now resting on a folded white bathrobe that's been placed on the rim of the tub.

The third and fifth photos are closer up to the face of the global star, who also has side pursuits in professional wrestling and acting - two passions that dovetailed neatly when Bad Bunny co-starred in last year's "Cassandro," a biopic of the famed Mexican luchador. Gael García Bernal shared the screen with Bad Bunny in the film, in the title role of the openly gay wrestler.

Sandwiched between the two closeups is a photo showing the "Bullet Train" actor's thighs, with artfully heaped suds concealing everything under the water's surface (though Bad Bunny's belly is visible, as are thigh tattoos).

The images got social media boiling. People Magazine noted that "The Instagram post accumulated over 3 million likes and various comments within four hours of its posting."

Added the account: "The photos come nearly two months after a source told PEOPLE that he and Kendall Jenner had split after less than a year of dating."

Fans let loose with comments that suggested how they'd like to slake their thirst.

"Forget Jacob Elordi's bath water," one comment declared. "I want Bad Bunny's bath water 🛀".

"New bath water flavor just dropped," another posted, while a third declared, "all i need is a straw and 30 minutes".

The fantasizing only got hotter from there.

"Bad Bunny will be back on the road later this month on the Most Wanted Tour," People Mag said. "The 31-city North American tour kicks off in Salt Lake City on Feb. 21. The tour will feature music from his latest album, 'Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va A Pasar Mañana (Nobody Knows What Will Happen Tomorrow).'"
