On Sunday, the time for talking was over as millions tuned in to watch the Puerto Rican superstar take the stage. He certainly delivered on his promise of having an all-Spanish show.
During his performance, Bunny paid homage to his roots, singing mostly in Spanish alongside Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin. At the same time, Turning Point USA held its own halftime show. Their lineup featured Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett.
While performing on the field, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell was on the sidelines taking in the action. A fan from the stands captured his reaction to Bad Bunny, and he did not look thrilled. Goodell stared at the Jumbotron as Bad Bunny did his thing on stage.

A lot was said about the Super Bowl halftime show before, during, and after. Despite the controversy, Bunny’s 2026 Super Bowl LX halftime performance made history. Despite the alternative Halftime Show, Bad Bunny’s official Super Bowl performance garnered millions of views.
It averaged 128.2 million viewers, coming in fourth place among the most-viewed Halftime shows in history. It also broke records as the most-consumed halftime show ever on NFL social platforms, with over 4 billion social views in 24 hours. “Telemundo averaged 3.3 million viewers, marking the most-watched Super Bowl in U.S. Spanish-language history,” Alex Sherman of CNBC said.
Dubbed the “Benito Bowl”, he performed 11 tracks as well as a live wedding. This makes it a success for the NFL. The decision to have the Grammy-winning rapper turned out to be a great decision.
As for the game at hand, Seattle dominated New England’s offense, forcing three turnovers and sacking quarterback Drake Maye six times. The game was never competitive.
