Bad Bunny Planning “Queer” Super Bowl Halftime Show To Honor The LGBTQIA+ Community
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
Global superstar Bad Bunny is getting set to hit the main stage next month inside Levi’s Stadium. NFL fans have made their feelings clear about the Super Bowl LX halftime show ever since it was announced last year. The debate will only get louder with the latest update.
Initial anger prompted fans to create a petition calling for the Puerto Rican star to be replaced. The petition focused on variety and mass appeal, not personal attacks. “My concern is simply about the Super Bowl halftime show needing an act with broader appeal across genres and audiences,” the petition stated. It added that the show should unite fans across cultures and tastes.
Well, Bunny certainly plans to appeal to a base once he hits that stage.
Bad Bunny Plans To Wear A Dress And Honor The Queer Community
A member of Bad Bunny’s style team is making some shocking claims about his attire and his plans. The source has claimed that the rapper wants to pay tribute to generations of drag during his performance on February 8.
According to a stylist, Bunny, real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is “100 percent going to wear a dress,” which has been described as “a political thunderbolt disguised as couture.” The insider said the 31-year-old Puerto Rican performer “loves controversy” and “lives to push envelopes.”
Echoing the comments, another source said Benito is “not playing it safe” at the show. He will also reportedly wear a dress, an outfit that is intended as “a political thunderbolt disguised as couture.”

The anonymous source said the costume is designed to honor Puerto Rican queer icons. Also, it will push cultural boundaries on one of the world’s biggest stages.
Fans of Bad Bunny speculated whether another superstar would join him for his performance at the Super Bowl for months. J Balvin and Bunny are frequent collaborators. However, the Colombian singer confirmed he won’t be making an appearance. He will now be a special guest during the Puerto Rican rapper’s Super Bowl halftime performance.
It still remains unknown who Bunny will have on stage with him, as we are now just a few weeks away from the big game.
