Dirty Dancing star Jennifer Grey and Bad Bunny both know a thing or two about dancing, but the beloved actress is taking her devotion to a whole new level.
Grey, 65, who rose to fame in the role of Frances “Baby” Houseman in 1987’s Dirty Dancing, got her first big role in 1986’s Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, where she played the whiny little sister of Matthew Broderick‘s cool older bro, Ferris Bueller. But it was her role as Baby, who heads on vacation in 1963 at a Catskills resort with her Jewish family, only to fall in love with the resort’s dance instructor, Johnny Castle (played by the mesmerizing Patrick Swayze), that solidified her role as a superstar. Now, she's taking her inspiration from Bad Bunny, who danced his way into the hearts of viewers on Sunday evening as the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl.
In an Instagram post, Grey revealed that she recently got a new dog and was inspired to name the pup Benito after watching Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
"I first laid ?on @badbunnypr in 2022. Suffice it to say…I was shooketh. Then 10 days ago, this little guy showed up and has stolen my heart. Please meet Benito, a name inspired by the miraculous and soulful #BenitoBowl, a powerful exaltation of love unity and joy #BenitoBowl#loveismorepowerfulthanhate," Grey captioned her photo, which showed a picture of herself and Bad Bunny. In the second slide, she shares a photo of her new puppy.

While a sequel to Dirty Dancing was announced a handful of years ago, Lionsgate pushed back its theatrical release due to 2023’s Hollywood strikes, Variety reported last year.
When asked, Grey said she didn’t have that much information.
“I can’t tell you much about Dirty Dancing as I’m not going to make promises,” Grey told GamesRadar+ and other reporters at the A Real Pain premiere. “I’m just waiting for them to really nail it down as it has to be right.”
She went on to say that they can “push that aside” until the next time they speak, “when it hopefully it will all be ironed out.”
Fans Will Just Have to Wait
While Dirty Dancing became a staple for movie fans, it even scored an Academy Award for Best Original Song for its legendary love theme “(I’ve Had) The Time of My Life” by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes. The song plays an important role for Baby and Johnny Castle at the end of the film. If you need a bit of a refresher on the memorable ending of Dirty Dancing, here's a look below:
