Puerto Rican homeowner, 84, sues Bad Bunny over use of iconic house in video and residency
Román Carrasco Delgado claims unauthorized use of his home led to privacy invasion and illicit enrichment, with the music video garnering 22 million views and minimal compensation.
- Román Carrasco Delgado, an 84-year-old unemployed widower from Humacao, Puerto Rico, sued Bad Bunny on Wednesday over the use of his home as a symbol in the artist's residency and video.
- Carrasco authorized a scout to film his salmon-colored house with a wraparound porch but had no detailed knowledge of its exact use, while co-defendants used its measurements without permission to build a replica for the concert series.
- La Casita featured in Bad Bunny's January short film launching the album 'Debé Tirar Más Fotos,' appeared in 30 concerts where celebrities gathered, and garnered 22 million video views and extensive social media and product exposure without Carrasco's benefit.
- Carrasco was paid a combined amount of $5,200 in two installments but claims that frequent visitors taking photos around his home have led to privacy violations and harmful remarks, while the lawsuit alleges that Bad Bunny and three associated companies benefited improperly.
- The complaint submitted to the San Juan Court of First Instance demands over $1 million as compensation for emotional harm and privacy infringements, underscoring the neglect of Carrasco’s rights amid extensive unauthorized use of his home.
