The hype surrounding Bad Bunny<\/a>\u2019s opening monologue on the Season 51 premiere of \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d didn\u2019t quite match Jimmy Kimmel\u2019s return to late night, but after the performer had been attacked by the MAGA crowd in recent days<\/a>, it was fair to wonder how he would handle it.<\/p>\n It turned out he used his monologue to celebrate his 2026 Super Bowl halftime role as a milestone for Latinos, while also mocking Fox News.<\/p>\n Speaking partly in Spanish, he highlighted the Latino community\u2019s enduring contributions to the United States and quipped that critics have four months to learn the language. The performance triggered cheers from the live audience and polarized online reactions, with conservatives criticizing the Spanish elements and supporters viewing it as a pushback against xenophobia.<\/p>\n \u201cI am doing the Super Bowl halftime show and I\u2019m very happy and I think everybody\u2019s happy about it,\u201d he said. \u201cEven Fox News.\u201d<\/p>\n That led into a mashup of various Fox News and right-wing political personalities saying, \u201cBad Bunny is my favorite musician, and he should be the next President.\u201d<\/p>\n Bad Bunny then added:<\/p>\n \u201cBut really, I\u2019m very excited to be doing the Super Bowl and I know that people all around the world who love my music are also happy.\u201d<\/p>\n He then broke into Spanish (to some cheers) before adding, \u201cAnd if you didn\u2019t understand what I just said, you have four months to learn.\u201d<\/p>\n Read the original article on NJ.com<\/a>.
