LDT “🎤 Bad Bunny Officially Confirmed as Super Bowl Halftime Headliner Despite Backlash”
Amid mounting backlash — including criticism from former President Donald Trump — the National Football League (NFL) has reaffirmed its decision to keep global superstar Bad Bunny as the official headliner for the upcoming Super Bowl Halftime Show.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell addressed the controversy this week, making it clear that the league’s choice was “carefully thought through” and will not be reversed. “Bad Bunny represents the global reach and cultural influence of today’s music. We stand by our decision,” Goodell said.
The Puerto Rican hitmaker, known for chart-toppers like “Tità Me Preguntó” and “Monaco,” has faced pushback from conservative circles questioning the NFL’s direction. However, industry insiders note that his inclusion reflects the league’s ongoing effort to engage younger, more diverse audiences worldwide.
Bad Bunny’s performance is expected to be one of the most-watched moments of the year, continuing the NFL’s trend of spotlighting boundary-pushing artists following previous headliners such as Rihanna, The Weeknd, and Usher.
📅 The Super Bowl LVIX will air live in February 2025 from New Orleans, Louisiana — and no matter the controversy, all eyes will be on Bad Bunny when he takes the stage.
