In the wake of Bad Bunny’s momentous halftime show at Super Bowl LX on February 8, figures across the entertainment industry are giving the Puerto Rican artist his flowers.
On X, Mavi remarked: “this shit hard im finna stop speaking English actually fuck English.” The Marías expressed some Puerto Rican pride on the platform, writing: “boricuaaaa.” Rauw Alejandro posted about the many Latin genres and dance styles Bad Bunny included in the show. He wrote, in Spanish: “Long live the BOMBA, the PLENA, the SALSA, the HIPHOP and above all LONG LIVE REGGAETON.” Ben Stiller also congratulated him, posting: “Incredible Half time show Bad Bunny.”
Kacey Musgraves pointedly called out the conservative non-profit Turning Point USA’s “All-American Halftime Show,” which streamed on YouTube at the same time as Bad Bunny’s performance and featured Kid Rock. “Well. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done,” Musgraves wrote.
Doechii, who made her own appearance at the Super Bowl in an ad for Levi’s jeans, posted on X: “Bad Bunny WOW ! Fucking, WOW. History.” On Threads, Kerry Washington echoed the sentiment, sharing: “I don’t know if I’ll ever recover from that… WHAT👏🏾A👏🏾SHOW👏🏾.” SG Lewis said: “Holy shit that was the best half time show I’ve ever seen” and Monte Booker concurred, posting: “one of the best half times.” Nick León also supported the artist, writing: “Love bad bunny forever.” Nancy Sinatra felt similarly, quoting a post from Lynda Carter about Bad Bunny with: “Love him.”
Bad Bunny’s halftime show was a love letter to Puerto Rico and Latinx communities around the world with ambitious set design and many, many special guests. Artists who joined him included Lady Gaga (with whom he salsa danced), Ricky Martin, Karol G, Young Miko, and Cardi B. The performance capped off a huge week for Bad Bunny, who also won Album Of The Year for Debí Tirar Más Fotos at the Grammys on February 1.
