Madonna treated concertgoers in Miami on Sunday, April 7, to quite a risqué show and left many asking: What’s up with Ricky Martin? Or more like: What’s going on inside of Ricky Martin’s pants? I don’t know, I wasn’t there, but video footage captured at the event, shows Ricky seemingly pitching a tent while acting as a guest judge.

Basically, what happened is that as part of her Celebrations Tour, Madge pulls up a guest to help judge a dance portion of the show during the “Vogue” segment. In Miami, Ricky was the lucky guest judge, but his pants—or what was going on in his pants—stole the show. Many are convinced that Ricky was so aroused by the sensual dancing that he got a visible erection. Judge for yourself.
Fans insist that Ricky was aroused.
Can you blame him if he was? He’s got dancers right up in his face and crotch doing their darndest to score a perfect 10 and at certain points, Ricky’s black slacks appear to be giving them a standing ovation right around his private parts.
The reactions on social media are hilarious.
One X (formerly Twitter) user posted a shocked reaction gif featuring Quinta Brunson as her Abbott Elementary character Janine Teagues and wrote: “Omg what did I just watch, Ricky Martin living his best life and I am totally here for it, yes honey !”
Someone else posted a reenactment.
The part of Ricky’s penis being played by DJ Khaled sitting and sipping on wine when something catches his attention and rapidly causes him to stand up. That’s an Oscar-worthy performance, if you ask me.
I have another theory about what was going on.
If you scrutinize non-grainy video of the occurrence, you can see that Ricky is wearing pants with a drop crotch that can and do easily bunch up when he sits down. Perhaps, that protrusion everyone witnessed was just a zipper rippling up and extra fabric puffing out.
I'm not the only one who thinks it's the pants.
I mean, I don't even have a penis, but if the crotch on my pants is too long, you might think I do—at least when I'm sitting down. Especially if the pants have a zipper. Just sayin'.
There's even an episode of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' about the whole pants tent issue.
There are just some pants that make a person look like they have an erection even when they don't. Also, there's really no way to prove it's not an erection unless you get all handsy and feel for yourself, which I do not recommend doing.
See how when he stands up, the fabric goes down?
In some clips shared online, when Ricky stands up, his crotch stands down as in the fabric on his pants smooths out. Oh, my goodness, I can't believe how much attention I've paid to this man's crotch. Let's call it investigative journalism so that I can pretend it was worth my time.
Regardless, Ricky is not ashamed.
He posted footage of his moment at the concert on his own social media and wrote: “Thank you @madonna my love! Always fun to be invited to the party! You all, CAN’T MISS THIS SHOW!”
So far, Ricky and his penis have not commented.
I’m dying! TMZ wrote: “We've reached out to Ricky…no word back yet.” I would hate to be the one assigned to call Ricky’s people and ask if Ricky had a boner during the Madonna concert.
Here's one more fan reaction.
Is it possible that Ricky was just doing his best impression of Ron Burgundy? Or maybe it was an audition for an updated reboot of Anchor Man starring Madonna and Ricky? Probably not.
