Bad Bunny will bring his reggaeton-rap set list to the largest peformance in football: the 2026 Halftime Show, announced the NFL early this week.
“What I’m feeling goes beyond myself. It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown…” said Bad Bunny in the NFL’s Sept. 28 press release. “This is for my people, my culture, and our history. Ve y dile a tu abuela, que seremos el HALFTIME SHOW DEL SUPER BOWL.”
The Puerto Rican rapper and singer is a three-time Grammy-award winner, and has been touring around the globe for his sixth album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos.”
