Puerto Rican music star Bad Bunny delivered what he promised — a show where “the world would dance.” All eyes were on Bad Bunny this Sunday as he was the headlining act for Super Bowl LX’s iconic Halftime Show. He brought a piece of his Puerto Rican culture to the Super Bowl LX attendees at Levi Stadium in Santa Clara, California. From singing his greatest hits like Tití Me Preguntó to bringing special celebrity guests, here is your recap of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX Halftime Show performance.
Inside Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX Halftime Show Performance
The show opened up with Bad Bunny walking through a tall sugar cane field. He was dressed in a monochromatic cream colored outfit created by Zara. It even included an homage to his real name, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. The music star wore a jersey with his last name, “Ocasio,” and the number 64 imprinted on the back. Also, it included other garments like a collared shirt, trousers, sneakers, and gloves.
Marking the first-ever Super Bowl Spanish-language performance, Bad Bunny brought the audience through an immersive experience that highlighted iconic components of the Latino culture. We saw moments like a man selling tacos, a bodega, a field with laborers, older men playing dominoes at a table, and a little boy sleeping on chairs at a party.
Bad Bunny also paid homage to the recent accomplishment in his music career — winning a Grammy Award. There is a moment where we see a little boy watching Bad Bunny’s Grammy acceptance speech on TV. Therefore, we see the music star approach the boy with a Grammy Award while telling him to always believe in himself.
Celebrity Appearances at Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl LX Halftime Show Performance
This past week, many were speculating whether a celebrity would be making a special appearance at Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show set. Many were guessing Karol G to Cardi B, and well, the performance did have its fair share of star appearances. Bad Bunny’s set featured a “casita,” which was an important structure built for his 2025 San Juan arena residency, and he brought it back for the Super Bowl.
There were several familar faces dancing along to Bad Bunny’s set at the “casita,” like Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, Cardi B, Karol G, Alix Earle, Young Miko, Ronald Acuña Jr., and David Grutman. However, the appearances didn’t stop there. A shock to many was seeing Lady Gaga appearing on stage to perform a salsa version of her and Bruno Mars’ duet “Die With a Smile.”
Gaga unleashed her inner salsa moves afterwards to dance with Bad Bunny to his song, BAILE INoLVIDABLE. Then, we also got to see another Puerto Rican singer, Ricky Martín, hit the stage during the Super Bowl. He helped Bad Bunny sing the track, LO QUE LE PASÓ A HAWAii. There was even a cameo that New Yorkers appreciated. Brooklyn’s Puerto Rican social club owner, Toñita, showed up while Bad Bunny sang another one of the star’s popular tracks, NUEVAYoL.
Other Key Moments
The performance also included a wedding. Yes, an actual wedding! A couple was spotlighted several times throughout Bad Bunny’s show. It initially started with a proposal and ended with them legally getting married. There is an actual backstory to this couple and how it eventually made them star in Bad Bunny’s performance. The couple actually invited Bad Bunny to attend their wedding. However, he decided that the best gift would be to invite them to actually get married during the show.
The Puerto Rican star also delivered a rendition of his song, El Apagón, that talks about Puerto Rico’s troubled electric grid. He and other dancers were seen spinning around prop utility poles.
In the final moments of his performance, he sang DTMF (Debí Tirar Más Fotos). Bad Bunny also expressed the words “God Bless America” while then going on to list the countries in the Latín America region, even including the United States and Canada. Behind him, a giant message was placed on the scoreboard with the quote: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” The camera then panned to Bad Bunny holding a football that had the phrase, “Together, we are America” emprinted.
