Bad Bunny has shared some insights regarding his much-awaited Super Bowl halftime performance happening this weekend.
The Puerto Rican artist is set to perform at the Apple Music Super Bowl LX halftime show where the New England Patriots will face off against the Seattle Seahawks at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday (February 8).
His selection as the halftime performer has stirred quite the debate, prompting Turning Point USA to organize an alternative halftime event with performances by Kid Rock and Gabby Barrett.
Leading up to the event, Bad Bunny has been increasingly open about what’s in store. During a pregame press conference with Apple Music on February 5, he provided some hints about what fans can look forward to.
When questioned by hosts Ebro Darden and Zane Lowe about potential guest appearances, the 31-year-old artist coyly responded: “You know that’s something I’m not going to tell you. I don’t know why you ask that.”
As for what to expect from the show, Bad Bunny promises a ‘huge party’ atmosphere.
“I just want to have fun, it’s going to be a huge party … I don’t want to give spoilers, people only need to worry about dancing,” he detailed. “They don’t even have to learn Spanish, it’s better if they dance but there’s no better dance that comes from the heart. … Of course, choose your team at the game.”
Reflecting on his recent Grammy success, where he won three awards, Bad Bunny mentioned that the experience has been overwhelming.
He commented: “Of course, there is a lot of gratitude. It’s how I’ve been feeling this whole year with the album. The biggest feeling is being grateful. I am taking things one day at a time and just living.”
The rapper emphasized that he intends to enjoy himself at the Super Bowl with ‘the crew, the people’.
“That’s what I’m trying to focus on. Enjoy the moment, what is happening,” Bad Bunny expressed.
While excitement surrounds Bad Bunny’s performance, it has also sparked some controversy.
“A lot of the MAGA folks apparently are very upset with the NFL. But they’re upset all the time,” Whoopi Goldberg stated on The View in September 2025.
She continued: “Another great American performer is going to be performing. I don’t see the problem. Because y’all do remember Puerto Rico is part of the United States.”
President Donald Trump also commented following the announcement of Bad Bunny headlining the halftime show.
“I’ve never heard of him,” Trump remarked in an interview with Newsmax in October 2025. “I don’t know who he is. I don’t know why they’re doing it. It’s, like, crazy.”
Bad Bunny, however, is a significant figure in today’s music scene, having been one of Spotify’s most-streamed artists last year with a staggering 19.8 billion streams.
