Jay-Z is defending Bad Bunny’s selection as the Super Bowl 60 Halftime Show performer, responding to those who have criticized the decision.
Jay-Z, the head of Roc Nation – which has worked with the NFL to choose Super Bowl halftime show performers since 2019 – recently told reporters in New York that people are wrong to think Bad Bunny isn’t popular, stating, “Don’t let them fool you,” and emphasizing that Americans actually enjoy his music. Bad Bunny is also known as Benito.
The NFL confirmed in September that Bad Bunny, the popular Puerto Rican singer, will perform in Santa Clara. He’s one of the most-streamed artists globally, often performing in Spanish and collaborating with major stars like Taylor Swift and Morgan Wallen. The performance is a collaboration between the NFL, Apple Music, and Roc Nation.
Even though Bad Bunny is incredibly popular, some people have criticized his selection as the Super Bowl halftime performer. A petition with over 100,000 signatures asked for him to be removed, with critics arguing that his style isn’t suitable for the typically family-oriented and traditional American Super Bowl halftime show.
Bad Bunny responded to the announcement with a statement expressing how much the honor meant to him. He said it wasn’t just a personal achievement, but a tribute to those who paved the way for him, allowing him to reach this milestone. He dedicated the performance to his community, his heritage, and their shared history, adding a message for everyone to tell their grandmothers that he would be performing at the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
The NFL is sticking with its choice and is excited about Bad Bunny performing at the Super Bowl. Jon Baker, a league executive, highlighted Bad Bunny’s popularity worldwide and his talent for connecting with a diverse audience. Baker stated that Bad Bunny’s energetic performances and creative style will make for a memorable Super Bowl experience, living up to the event’s reputation.
Having Bad Bunny perform at the Super Bowl halftime show demonstrates the NFL’s dedication to featuring artists from around the world and representing the variety of music people enjoy today.
