Melania Trump posted a series of Instagram photos on Saturday, set to Bad Bunny’s chart-topping song “DtMF.” She shared the posts on both her personal account and the official FLOTUS account.
The images feature her black-and-white Inaugural Ball dress being inducted into the Smithsonian Institution. “DtMF,” currently topping the Billboard Hot 100, plays as the background music.
The posts come after repeated criticism from President Donald Trump over Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime performance. Trump had called the show “terrible” and “one of the worst, EVER!” in a Truth Social post, saying viewers couldn’t understand the lyrics.
Conservative groups, including Turning Point USA, hosted alternative halftime events in protest. Yet Bad Bunny’s show drew more than 128 million viewers, celebrating Puerto Rican history, culture, and unity.
The performance included visuals of sugarcane fields, electrical poles, and flags from across the Americas, ending with a football inscribed “Together We Are America” and a message: “The only thing more powerful than hate, is love.”
“DtMF,” from Bad Bunny’s Grammy-winning album Debí Tirar Más Fotos (“I Should’ve Taken More Photos”), reflects on regret over missed moments with loved ones. The song has inspired an emotional trend on TikTok, where users share memories of family and friends.
By posting to the song, Melania Trump highlighted a personal and cultural moment, separate from the political backlash, celebrating both her Smithsonian honor and the emotional resonance of Bad Bunny’s music.
