Bad Bunny may have had fans losing their minds at New York Fashion Week just by showing up, but his brother, Bernie Martinez Ocasio, turned heads in a big way. While Benito chilled in the front row (and played it cool when Kendall Jenner modeled in front of him), Bernie hit the runway at Campillo's Fall/Winter 2025 show, proving that he's not just tagging along for the ride; he's making moves of his own.  

For those just tuning in, this isn't Bernie's first modeling moment. Back in January, he walked in Willy Chavarria's Fall/Winter 2025 show in Paris, a big deal for any rising model. Now, with his Campillo debut, he's making it clear that he's not just known for being Bad Bunny's brother. He's out here building a name for himself in fashion, one runway at a time.

Just a day before his big walk, Bernie and Bad Bunny were spotted sitting front row at the Calvin Klein show on February 7, effortlessly turning heads. Their coordinated style and undeniable resemblance had people talking, but Bernie's runway appearances are speaking for themselves. 

It's only a matter of time before he's a household name in his own right, reminding us of Kendall Jenner's same "humble" beginnings in modeling. While Kim Kardashian may argue that Jenner owes her for her modeling career, Kendall has used her tools to become a fixture in fashion.

It may be too soon to know what Bernie's future holds, but perhaps his brother has Kim's energy and uses his influence. We are not saying he will buy him a career in the industry, but it is about time for a Kim 2.0.

While we wait and see, the 10th season of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" lives rent-free on our heads. How can we forget when Kim yelled, "I'm not buying her a f**king pair of shoes; I bought her a f**king career!" referring to Kendall during a heated exchange regarding her work ethics.

Fast-forward to today, Kenny is a household name in fashion, and Bernie definitely has what it takes. It is a matter of time before we see them modeling together for a luxury brand during fashion week.
