Andy Cohen Blasts “Idiot” Critics of Bad Bunny Super Bowl 60 Halftime Show

by

The NFL revealed in September that Bad Bunny, the popular Puerto Rican artist, will perform at the Super Bowl 60 halftime show in Santa Clara.

Bad Bunny is a global music superstar, famous for often performing his popular songs in Spanish. He regularly appears at the top of streaming charts, alongside artists like Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen. The decision to feature him was announced jointly by the league, Apple Music, and Jay-Z’s Roc Nation.

Even though Bad Bunny is very popular, a petition on Change.org has gained over 100,000 signatures asking for him to be removed from the event. People who signed the petition believe his artistic style doesn’t fit the family-oriented, traditionally American nature of the show.

Bad Bunny responded to the news with an emotional message. He said his feelings were bigger than himself, representing those who paved the way for him, and that this moment was for his community, his culture, and their shared history. He ended by saying, “Go tell your grandmother that we will be the Super Bowl Halftime Show!”

The NFL is sticking with its decision to have Bad Bunny perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. According to Jon Baker, the league’s head of global events, Bad Bunny embodies the energy and excitement of modern music. He’s a hugely popular and versatile artist who connects with people all over the world, making him a perfect fit for the Super Bowl stage. The NFL expects his performance to be a memorable and creative experience, continuing the tradition of iconic halftime shows.

During a recent discussion, television personality Andy Cohen—host of “Watch What Happens Live” and a producer of Bravo reality shows—firmly defended Bad Bunny against criticism. On the “Call Her Daddy” podcast with Alex Cooper, Cohen expressed his frustration with the negative reactions, stating, “He’s an American, you people!” and adding, “Puerto Rico is part of America! It’s unbelievable.”

Okay, so the buzz around the Super Bowl halftime show isn’t just about the performance itself, it’s sparked a bigger conversation. It really boils down to what people expect from this massive event, and how well Bad Bunny, as a huge global star, fits into that tradition. Some US fans are wondering if his vibe is quite right for the Super Bowl, and honestly, it’s got everyone talking about representation, cultural shifts, and what we even want from these kinds of shows these days.
