Mr. Worldwide is out here, breaking world records.
Rapper Pitbull, who was born Armando Christian PΓ©rez, set the world record on July 10 for the largest gathering of people wearing bald caps. A whopping 22,141 of the rapperβs fans, affectionately referred to as the βBald-Es,β showed up to Londonβs BST Hyde Park festival to pull off the feat. The record was officially confirmed by the Guinness World Records.
Dale, indeed.
In a video capturing the official count, shared on the rapperβs social media, Pitbull can be seen ecstatically yelling, βBald-Eβs, we did it Bald-Eβs! We did it Bald-Eβs!β
For the gathering, thousands of fans showed up to the festival wearing not only bald caps, but also the rapperβs signature shades. Some took their outfits to another level, donning Pitbullβs legendary tie look, while others also drew on goatees for additional accuracy.
In order for the record to be official, Pitbull himself had to wear a bald cap, Will Munford, an official adjudicator for the Guinness World Records said, according to The Guardian.
The moment called for serious counting. So, 400 volunteers were onsite to individually check people, Munford said, according to the outlet. There was also βdrone footage with 42 counters backstage,β Munford added.
The gathering was actually the brainchild of British podcaster Jack Remington, who floated the idea on TikTok in October 2025.
βThe capacity of High Park is 65,000 people. That is easily enough to break the world record for the number of people cosplaying as Pitbull in one place at one time,β Remington said in the video. βThere is only one man who can save us right now … and I actually have one thing to say. Dale.β
Pitbull eventually got wind of the proposed record attempt and it was on from there.
Well, we can safely say that everyone had a good hair day that day.
