Bad Bunny made history at the Super Bowl with a groundbreaking halftime performance that celebrated Latin culture, unity, and his Puerto Rican roots. Performing almost entirely in Spanish, the global superstar became the first artist to deliver a Spanish-language halftime show on the NFL’s biggest stage.
The high-energy set featured vibrant visuals inspired by Puerto Rican life, surprise guest appearances from Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, and a live wedding held during the performance. Lady Gaga joined Bad Bunny for a salsa-style rendition of Die with a Smile, while Ricky Martin performed a song closely associated with Puerto Rico’s identity.
Bad Bunny also used the moment to spotlight ongoing challenges faced by his homeland, including power outages and post-hurricane recovery. The show closed with a powerful message of unity as fireworks lit the sky and the words, “The only thing more powerful than hate is love,” filled the stadium screens.
While the performance drew criticism from former U.S. President Donald Trump, it was widely praised by fans and fellow artists as a cultural milestone that reshaped what a Super Bowl halftime show can represent.
