Bad Bunny to Make History at Super Bowl LX Halftime Show
The NFL, Apple Music, and Roc Nation have made a significant announcement for Super Bowl LX. Puerto Rican Latin trap and reggaeton sensation Bad Bunny will take the stage at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on February 8, 2026. This high-profile event will be the first time the globally renowned artist performs at the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
Bad Bunny, currently the most-streamed male artist on Spotify, has just wrapped up a successful residency in Puerto Rico. His powerful performances and socially conscious lyrics have earned him a massive following worldwide. The NFL's decision to feature him at the Super Bowl Halftime Show is a nod to his influence and cultural impact.
The announcement has sparked controversy, with conservative commentators criticizing the choice due to Bad Bunny's political views and Spanish-language music. Some have even called for boycotts of the Super Bowl, citing perceived political manipulation of the games. However, the NFL's partnership with Roc Nation has consistently led to politically charged performances by hip-hop artists during halftime shows.
Bad Bunny, known for his advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights and social justice, has previously stated that he chose not to perform in the U.S. due to concerns about ICE targeting his fans. His Super Bowl performance is dedicated to 'those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown' and 'for my people, my culture and our history'.
Bad Bunny's Super Bowl LX Halftime Show performance is set to be a cultural moment, blending his unique style and powerful message. Despite the controversy, his fans eagerly await his performance, which is scheduled to take place just days after he hosts the new season opener of 'SNL'.
