Bad Bunny Looks Forward to Super Bowl Performance, Stays Focused on Music

SAN FRANCISCO - Bad Bunny took the stage just days before his much-anticipated halftime show at Super Bowl LX, sharing his excitement about the party he plans to create through his music at Levi's Stadium.

In a packed conference room filled with international media, Bad Bunny answered questions from Apple Music representatives and junior reporters, keeping the focus on his music, family, and the challenges of balancing an ongoing tour with the preparation for the halftime show.

"To be honest, there's a lot," he said. "I'm still in the middle of my tour. I just was at the Grammys last week. I've been working on this show, so it's been quite a journey."

He expressed gratitude for his experiences over the past year, especially regarding his album's success. "I'm happy but just processing everything one day at a time. I'm excited about this performance," he added.

Named the halftime performer for Super Bowl LX in September, Bad Bunny faced criticism from some, including President Trump. However, the NFL stood by their decision, with Commissioner Roger Goodell praising him as "one of the greatest artists in the world." This announcement followed Bad Bunny's three Grammy wins, including Album of the Year.

The Puerto Rican artist, known for his outspoken views against Immigration and Customs Enforcement, has kept the focus on his performance in recent comments, refraining from discussing politics. He hinted at a fun, culturally rich atmosphere for the halftime show but declined to reveal any special guests.

"I just want people to have fun. It will be a huge party, showcasing my culture. I don't want to give any spoilers, but it's going to be enjoyable and easy for everyone to dance along," he stated.

For those unfamiliar with his primarily Spanish lyrics, Bad Bunny encouraged them to focus on dancing. "They don’t even need to learn Spanish; it’s better to learn to dance from the heart," he noted.

This will be Bad Bunny's second appearance at the Super Bowl halftime show; he previously performed as a guest in 2020. Now, he returns as a headliner, solidifying his status as one of the biggest music stars globally.

Despite trying to relax, Bad Bunny admitted to waking up at night thinking about the show. "It's just 30 minutes of doing what I love. I'm trying to enjoy it and have fun with what I'm doing," he shared.

When asked what he would be doing if not for his music career, he humorously replied, "Watching the Super Bowl at home?"
