  • Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Gig Sparks Controversy Amid Cultural Divides
    Feb 1 2026
    Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar also known as Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is dominating headlines this week with Super Bowl buzz and Grammy anticipation. ESPN reports the NFL is standing firm on booking him for the February 8 halftime show at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, despite backlash from the Trump administration over his criticism of immigration policies and mass deportation plans. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell called it a carefully thought-out choice to grow the league's international and Latino audience, while chief marketing officer Tim Ellis dismissed critics by saying Bad Bunny is awesome. The controversy stems from Bad Bunny's past comments, like skipping U.S. tour dates over ICE raid fears, as he told i-D Magazine, and his July 4 video for NUEVAYoL mocking Trump with a Statue of Liberty in Puerto Rican colors.

    Social media exploded on January 25 when rumors hit that Bad Bunny might wear a dress during the performance to honor queer icons and challenge masculinity norms, according to insiders speaking to Billboard and TMZ. Conservative voices raged, calling for boycotts and decrying it as an attack on family values, but production sources later told TMZ he won't wear one. EvriMagaci notes the firestorm highlighted cultural divides ahead of Super Bowl LX.

    As listeners tune in tonight, Geo.tv shares fresh rumors swirling on X that Bad Bunny, seated with Miley Cyrus at the Grammys 2026 in Los Angeles, could announce a collaboration during the ceremony. Fans are buzzing about it based on seating charts.

    His 2025 album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS topped Spotify's global charts with 19.8 billion streams, per Spotify data cited by NWLondoner, crowning his 2026 world tour the most searched-for, with 281,000 monthly Google hits via Fanatix—even before more dates in Europe, South America, Australia, and Asia. Times of India echoes why the NFL sees him as the right artist for this moment.

  • Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Dominates Buzz Ahead of Big Game
    Jan 29 2026
    Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is dominating headlines this week with his Super Bowl LX halftime show just over a week away on February 8 at Levi's Stadium. WVTF reports his 2025 album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS surged to number 3 on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 119,000 equivalent units, fueled by 85,000 Amazon-exclusive vinyl copies ahead of the Grammys and Super Bowl buzz.

    TMZ covered his recent Late Show with Stephen Colbert appearance, where he playfully described his future in five words: retired, happy, eating tripletas, and living in Puerto Rico, hinting at eventual retirement while prepping for the big stage. Production sources confirmed to TMZ he won't wear a dress, debunking rumors that sparked a firestorm on social media as recently as January 25.

    ThinkNow released a national study today, January 29, gauging perceptions of his performance amid ongoing controversy. The Eagle Online detailed American University students' excitement and defenses of his Spanish-language music against backlash, while noting ICE profiling concerns tied to recent Supreme Court rulings from Brookings Institution reports.

    Conservative pushback persists, with Turning Point USA planning a rival All-American Halftime Show, as covered by The Express, and President Trump calling the pick ridiculous on NewsMax. Bad Bunny stays defiant, posting from Puerto Rico beaches on Instagram about the gig, vowing to represent his culture.

    Apple Music's trailer dropped earlier this month, showing him dancing to BAILE INOLVIDABLE with a diverse cast, embodying his unapologetic vibe. Listeners, amid this cultural clash, his performance promises to be a historic moment for Latin music.

  • Headline: "Bad Bunny's Historic Super Bowl Halftime Show: A Celebration of Rhythm, Unity, and Puerto Rican Pride"
    Jan 18 2026
    Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is dominating headlines with his upcoming Super Bowl LX halftime show on February 8 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The Independent reports that he's headlining the Apple Music event, joined by acts like Green Day for the opening, Brandi Carlile singing America the Beautiful, Charlie Puth on the National Anthem, and Coco Jones with Lift Every Voice and Sing.

    This week, on January 16, Apple Music dropped the official trailer, shot under Puerto Rico's iconic flamboyant tree, where Bad Bunny dances to his 2025 hit “BAILE INOLVIDABLE,” or Unforgettable Dance, joined by diverse dancers of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. ABC News describes it as an invitation for the world to groove, emphasizing rhythm, unity, and cultural richness. The clip ends with his promise: “The world will dance.”

    The Express notes the trailer shattered records, surpassing Rihanna's 2.9 million Instagram likes to become the most-liked Super Bowl halftime promo ever at 3 million, celebrated by fans on Threads and Instagram amid MAGA backlash. Conservatives, including Trump supporters, have slammed him as a Trump hater, anti-ICE activist, and criticized his Spanish-only songs and Puerto Rican roots—despite Puerto Rico being a U.S. territory. Trump once claimed he'd never heard of him, per The Independent.

    Fans are hyped, predicting the most-viewed halftime ever. iHeartRadio highlights the trailer's inclusive vibe countering right-wing criticism, while NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell defended the pick, calling Bad Bunny one of the world's top entertainers for a uniting moment. On SNL, Bad Bunny dedicated it to Latinos opening doors worldwide.

    Social media buzzes with excitement, volunteers need to meet height requirements, and speculation grows on guest stars and his all-Spanish set as the first solo male Latin headliner.
