Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny has once again taken social media by storm with his new album, 'DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.' The title track has become a viral phenomenon on TikTok, inspiring a heartfelt trend that resonates with users worldwide, including the children of celebrities.

The trend involves using the song's poignant chorus as a backdrop to share photos and videos of loved ones who have passed away. Lyrics like "I should have taken more photos when I had you, I should have given you more kisses and hugs when I could" have struck a chord, prompting many to reflect on moments they didn't capture with their loved ones.

Celebrities' children join the trend

conforme vamos creciendo la edad va cobrando sus facturas y al llegar la vejez con ella perdemos la lucidez de la juventud, hay quienes no recuerdan ni quienes son y hay otros que por azares del destino no llegan a viejos.. la vida es un regalo y la salud un privilegio, cuantos no darían todo por seguir con nosotros, disfruten de los suyos, aprovechen cada momento que tengan al máximo y agradezcan cada día por un despertar más. ❤️‍🩹. #Dtmf #mom

Zarelea Figueroa, daughter of singer Joan Sebastian, also joined in, posting a video from her son Santiago's baptism in 2010. Her caption read, "Treasures you find on your phone... I should have taken more photos, Dad."

Influencer Juanpa Zurita used the trend to honor his late dog, Puca, who passed away five years ago. In an emotional post, Zurita wrote, "I don't post much about Puca since she passed. It's hard to remember, especially since she left on a tough date (December 31). It feels like that wound never heals."
