Bad Bunny Makes History With All-Spanish Super Bowl LX Halftime Spectacle

Bad Bunny delivered a halftime performance deeply rooted in Puerto Rican culture during the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, blending music, high-profile guest appearances, and personal reflection before a global NFL audience.

The rapper ran through fan favorites including “Tití Me Preguntó,” “Yo Perreo Sola,” and “DtMF,” while Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Karol G, Pedro Pascal, Alix Earle, and Young Miko joined him on the field, dancing throughout the set.

The elaborate production spotlighted elements tied to Puerto Rican identity, incorporating traditional dance, cafecito, childhood games, and visual nods to the lasting impact of Hurricane Maria.

Lady Gaga made a surprise appearance to perform “Die with a Smile,” her collaboration with Bruno Mars, wearing blue in homage to the Puerto Rican flag and featuring the Flor de Maga, the island’s official national flower. Fellow Puerto Rican star Ricky Martin also took the stage, performing “Lo Que Pasó a Hawaii.”

At one point, Bad Bunny declared, “God bless America,” before naming countries and territories across the Americas while holding a football emblazoned with the message, “Together, we are America.”

While the decision to feature a Spanish-speaking headliner sparked criticism from some viewers, others voiced strong support, including Whoopi Goldberg, who publicly praised his inclusion.

A couple featured in the Super Bowl LX halftime production tied the knot on the field at Levi’s Stadium during the performance, a detail confirmed shortly after the show concluded.

An NBC News reporter revealed the moment on X, writing, “This is incredibly cool — A source familiar with Bad Bunny’s performance tonight tells me that the couple in the halftime show got married for real. They invited Bad Bunny to their wedding and in turn he invited them to get married during his performance.”

Bad Bunny’s representative later confirmed the wedding to Variety. The bride and groom were visible throughout the halftime show, dancing on the field and appearing alongside an officiant as the performance unfolded.

The bride wore a strapless lace gown designed by Hayley Paige, whose reaction underscored the significance of the moment.

“Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine one of my wedding dresses making a cameo at the Super Bowl. Seeing (the dress) during Bad Bunny’s halftime show is, well, loco. But what makes it truly special is that it’s worn by a real bride on her wedding day,” the designer said.

The halftime show also wove in nods to Bad Bunny’s recent Grammy triumph, ultimately closing with a powerful celebration of unity across the Americas and a spotlight on Puerto Rican identity on the Super Bowl stage, a message that resonated far beyond the music.
