Fans Share Mixed Reactions to Bad Bunny Being Named the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Performer

Bad Bunny will be rocking the stage at the Super Bowl!

On Sunday, September 28, the NFL announced that the 31-year-old Puerto Rican rapper (real name: Benito Antonio) will headline the Super Bowl LX halftime show at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, in February.

The three-time Grammy Award winner took to social media to share the news, and fans weighed in on X.

“Let’s go! So hyped on this one,” one fan gushed. “Ready for some next level production in that outdoor stadium 🙌.”

“I love this choice. Brilliant move Jay-Z,” a second fan commented, referring to how Jay Z’s company, Roc Nation, helps pick the performers.

“This is 100% the correct move to expand the superbowl outside of the US (the nfl’s main goal),” a third fan penned.

However, some fans were disappointed that their favorite artists weren’t picked to perform.

“I speak for everyone, we do NOT want Bad Bunny we’d rather have Drake or Lil Wayne 👍,” one person admitted.

“No Ozzy tribute,” another person complained, referring to heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away in July.

“Kill me. God dammit man. Bay Area has so much good music and we’re doing ‘Bad Bunny?!'” someone else wrote.

Super Bowl LX is scheduled to take place on Sunday, February 8.
