Bad Bunny and LeBron James spark bromance as pair party hard with lots of women at swanky Puerto Rico hotel
An insider close to the festivities exclusively told The U.S. Sun that the unlikely pair enjoyed each other's company during the opening weekend for Bad Bunny's residency in his native island.

The performer is at the start of a once-in-a-lifetime run of 30 sold-out shows in his hometown at the iconic Coliseo de Puerto Rico.
The source, who was an eyewitness to much of the revelry, revealed just how invested Bad Bunny, 31, has been in ensuring these concerts benefit the island and serve its people.
"It's an elaborate thing where he is making the tickets available at a low price, you have to prove you're a fan and a Puerto Rican resident, like people have to get the tickets at the supermarket he worked at when he was a kid."
The insider said LeBron, 40, was not only at the concert and vibing to the music, but he also hung out with the singer for much of the lead-up to the first show.
"LeBron was at the concert, there were a bunch of videos of them together, but before that, they had hung out and played golf together all day," the insider said of the performer and the Los Angeles Lakers player.
The insider added that the NBA star is still a newbie at golfing and has been enjoying the sport lately.
"After all that they partied their a**es off at the St Regis property nearby with a lot of beautiful women."
"They have this fun new bromance energy going on," the source added.
Bad Bunny started his residency on July 12, and has a whirlwind of 30 dates over the next month, before he kicks off his world tour, which notably does not include any shows in the 50 states.
The Puerto Rican icon is very single, and clearly ready to mingle, as he has not had any serious public relationship since his split from Kendall Jenner last year.
LeBron is married to his wife of 12 years, Savannah James.
BAD SPLIT
Fans noticed the couple had split when they both appeared at the US Open, separately, in September.
Fans noticed the duo sitting apart during the match, leading many to speculate that it was a sign their relationship had come to an end.
"Bad Bunny and Kendall definitely broke up - they are sitting separately," one person wrote in a popular online thread, starting the discussion.
"To be honest they always seemed like a hot fling kind of thing. I can see them going back and forth for fun but unsure if anything serious will come out of it," someone else said, after having brought up that the pair dated previously and had split in December of 2023.
Before the U.S. Open sighting, the pair hadn't been seen together since June at Paris Fashion Week, which had further fueled the rumor at the time.

Oasis dedicate song to Ozzy Osbourne as they begin series of gigs in London
Oasis dedicated one of their hits to the late rocker Ozzy Osbourne as they made a triumphant return to London for a series of gigs as part of their world tour. Liam Gallagher told tens of thousands of fans of his pride as the band graced the stage at Wembley Stadium for the first time in more than a decade. Just three songs into their much-anticipated appearance, he declared the crowd was 'f****** beautiful', having bowed to the sea of raised arms before him. Liam and brother Noel played with their band for the first of seven nights at the stadium on Friday – with five shows over the next week and two more scheduled in September. It was the first time they had appeared together onstage at the London venue since July 12 2009, when they performed during their Dig Out Your Soul tour. Towards the end of the gig, they paid tribute to Osbourne. Lead singer Liam said: 'I wanna dedicate this one to Ozzy Osbourne, rock 'n' roll star.' The Black Sabbath star's death at the age of 76 was announced earlier this week. Oasis superfans in bucket hats and branded T-shirts had packed the Tube en route to the gig from earlier in the day, with international accents denoting the band's worldwide popularity. As with previous gigs Liam and Noel walked onstage hand in hand, opened with Hello and proceeded to belt out many of their classics including Some Might Say and Morning Glory. The packed-out stadium was in full voice throughout and at one point Liam threw a tambourine into the jubilant crowd, while later positioning one on top of his head. Despite pledging to concentrate on his vocals rather than talking – telling those gathered 'every time I open my mouth at these gigs I seem to get myself into a lot of trouble so I'm just going to do the singing' – Liam later engaged in some light football banter. The well-known Manchester City fan appeared to poke fun at Arsenal fans in the crowd, joking about their position in the Premier league. Phone camera torches lit up the stadium as darkness fell. Friday's show – the eighth of the tour – followed a five-night run of homecoming gigs in Manchester's Heaton Park and the two opening shows in Cardiff earlier this month. Following the first part of their Wembley stint, the band will head up north to Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium followed by Dublin's Croke Park. The group will head to Japan, South Korea, South America, Australia and North America later in the year. Oasis announced their reunion tour in August of last year – 16 years after their dramatic split in 2009 which saw Noel quit following a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris. While fans were excited at the Britpop band's reunion, many were left outraged after some standard tickets in the UK and Ireland jumped from £148 to £355. The controversy prompted the Government and the UK's competition watchdog to pledge to look at the use of dynamic pricing.

Dig Out Your Soul, the band's last studio album, was released in 2008, just months before the Paris row.

Grammy-winning jazz singer Dame Cleo Laine dies
Grammy-winning jazz singer Dame Cleo Laine has died aged 97. Dame Cleo was a leading figure of the British jazz scene for many years and worked with the likes of Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra. Her famed scat singing style, her remarkable range from tenor to contralto and her smoky voice made her Britain's most successful jazz singer, earning her the nickname the First Lady of Jazz. "It is with deepest sadness that we announce the passing of our dearly beloved mother, Cleo, who died peacefully yesterday afternoon," her children Jacqui and Alec Dankworth said. "We will all miss her terribly. The family wish to be given space to grieve and ask for privacy at this very difficult time." Dame Cleo's husband, saxophonist Sir John Dankworth, died aged 82 in 2010 after being a mainstay of the British jazz scene for more than 50 years. The couple founded a charity and venue called The Stables in 1970 to "ensure young people have access to great music and music education", David Meadowcroft, chairman of the charity, said, adding that The Stables would continue the couple's commitment. He added that Dame Cleo "was a remarkable performer who was loved by audiences around the world". Monica Ferguson, artistic director of The Stables, said the singer "will be greatly missed, but her unique talent will always be remembered". Born Clementina Dinah Campbell, the singer grew up with her Jamaican father and English mother in Southall, west London, where she was supported by her father's busking talents. She became a professional jazz singer in her mid-20s when she successfully auditioned for the Johnny Dankworth Seven in 1951 and changed her name to Cleo Laine. Seven years later, Dame Cleo married Sir John. Their son Alec was born in 1960, a year before his mother scored a top 10 hit with You'll Answer To Me, before daughter Jacqueline followed in 1963. In 1973, Dame Cleo and Sir John drew a sold-out crowd at New York's Carnegie Hall and launched a series of popular concerts. She received a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance for Cleo At Carnegie in 1986. In the 1997 Birthday Honours, the singer became the first British jazz artist to be made a dame. Her career was later also honoured with a Life Achievement Award at the British Jazz Awards in 2002.
