One of the most controversial Super Bowl halftime shows in recent memory is set to take place this Sunday, February 8, when Bad Bunny makes his appearance at Super Bowl LX, during halftime of the game between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks.
The controversy has arisen around President Donald Trump, who has spoken out against the Puerto Rican singer’s participation in the Super Bowl Halftime Show and will even be absent from the game. Bad Bunny has spoken out against Trump’s policies on migrants, sparking a heated exchange between the president and the artist.
Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio is a Puerto Rican singer, songwriter, producer, actor, and wrestler. At 31, he has achieved what no other artist in the Latin urban music genre has been able to: a Grammy at the main ceremony, winning Best Album of the Year. As one of the most listened to artists worldwide, with the most listened to album of 2025 worldwide, Bad Bunny will perform at the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
The following songs are expected to be on the setlist for this 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
However, no songs have been confirmed at this time, and these are only speculations by the media.
Another big question mark for the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show is who Bad Bunny will bring as guests. First, he is expected to bring artists from Puerto Rico, who could include Daddy Yankee or Jowell y Randy. Another strong possibility is that J Balvin, a Colombian artist who is well known in the United States and was even one of former President Barack Obama’s favorite singers, will be present.
Finally, there is speculation about an invitation to Cardi B or Drake, the latter of which could be a huge surprise, especially given the controversy surrounding Kendrick Lamar’s 2025 Halftime Show.
With an estimated investment of between $10 million and $15 million, Bad Bunny’s halftime show is expected to last between 12 and 16 minutes, which is the average length of all Super Bowl shows.
Bad Bunny is the first Latino male artist to headline a Super Bowl halftime show. In general, Latin artists who have appeared in halftime shows include Gloria Estefan as a guest in 1992, Enrique Iglesias as a guest in 2000, and Shakira and Jennifer Lopez in 2020.
