Cheetos and Bad Bunny Continue to Uplift the Hispanic Community Ahead of School Year with the Launch of the Deja tu Huella Estudiante Fund to Provide Students with $500,000.
What happens when you mix a Bad Bunny with a Mischievous Cheetah? The hottest capsule collab of the year.
When Cheetos® and global music superstar Bad Bunny first introduced the Deja tu Huella™ campaign in 2020 to celebrate the impact that Hispanic culture has made on today’s society, they set out on a mission to inspire the next generation to Deja tu Huella, a phrase that translates to “leave your mark.” Since last year, that rally cry has only grown stronger.
As the campaign enters its second phase, Chester Cheetah and Bad Bunny are teaming up once again to spotlight the Hispanic community by bringing fans two exciting experiences ahead of the school year that take Deja tu Huella to the next level: an exclusive fashion collaboration with adidas and the Deja tu Huella Estudiante Fund, a contest that will give $500,000 in total prizing to students in the U.S. and Puerto Rico.
It’s an honor to give back to the Hispanic community that has done so much for me. Between music and fashion, there are so many ways to leave your mark on culture, and I want to encourage everyone to follow whatever path inspires them. That’s what the Deja tu Huella program is all about.

Cheetos x Bad Bunny Collection by adidas
The extremely limited adidas leisurewear collection is a product of two innovative design visions coming together: Bad Bunny’s signature style combined with Chester’s orange-themed “Cheetos Look.”
In true mischievous fashion, Cheetos is giving its biggest fans the chance to get early access to the exclusive items before they’re officially available for purchase on August 6. Fans simply need one thing for the opportunity to cop the drop before anyone else: fingertips covered in Cheetos orange-dust, also known as Cheetle®, which all true Cheetos fans now don as a badge of honor.
How to use Cheetle iD to unlock early access to the exclusive collection:
The Cheetos fans in the U.S. and Puerto Rico can head to www.CheetleiD.com to use Cheetle iD, a first-of-its-kind Cheetos x adidas e-commerce experience designed to get the merch into the hands of Cheetos’ biggest fans first.
There, Chester will use Cheetle iD technology to detect whether fans have Cheetle® on their fingertips. The first 100 people who pass the Cheetle iD detector will have direct access to purchase items from the collection before the rest of the public.
Not part of the first 100 fans to use Cheetle iD? No problem. All fans who didn’t get early access can sign up at www.CheetleiD.com to enter for a chance to purchase the merch on August 6 via the NTWRK app.
Deja tu Huella Estudiante Fund

To enter the #DejatuHuella TikTok Hashtag Challenge, fans in the U.S. and Puerto Rico can submit a :60 video that shows how they are leaving their mark on the community, the culture, or the world, and tag @Cheetos, #DejatuHuella, and #Entry to be eligible.

Bad Bunny – @badbunnypr
Bad Bunny is a multi-platinum recording artist, multiple Latin GRAMMY and GRAMMY winner, who consistently manages to break international barriers and dismantle cultural norms, becoming a global icon of culture and entertainment. In 2020, he was named “Composer of the Year” by ASCAP. Bad Bunny became the first male reggaeton artist to appear on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine and the only male Latin artist to grace the cover of The New York Times Magazine. With his unparalleled impact on massive audiences, this year Bad Bunny was proclaimed the biggest pop star in the world by Bloomberg.
This year, the artist quickly sold out tickets to his upcoming tour, “El Último Tour del Mundo 2022,” and made history by achieving the best-performing sales days on Ticketmaster for any tour since 2018. He continued to break records with his latest single, “Yonaguni,” which marked the biggest streaming debut for a Spanish song on Spotify, ranking #3 on the global “Top 200.” The song amassed more than 20 million combined streams across digital platforms on its first day of release alone.
His most recent album, “El Último Tour del Mundo” debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, becoming the first album entirely in Spanish to reach said position in the 64-year history of the all-genre chart. The artist has had his entire discography on the Billboard 200, with his last four albums in the Top 10 and his first album, “X100PRE” at #11. He closed 2020 as the #1 global artist on Spotify, and Billboard’s #1 Latin artist for the second consecutive year. Bad Bunny is one of the Latin artists with the most entries on the global “Hot 100” chart, with a total of 38 hits on the chart.
