For millions, the Super Bowl Halftime Show is the real event, and in 2026, Bad Bunny proved why he’s one of the biggest names in music. The Puerto Rican superstar took the stage in a show full of energy, choreography, and unexpected cameos.
He wasn’t alone. As has become tradition, Bad Bunny invited a roster of celebrities to share the spotlight. Cardi B appeared early, moving with his dancers. Pedro Pascal and Jessica Alba made brief but memorable cameos on a casita set piece. Lady Gaga joined for a rendition of her hit “Die With a Smile,” while Ricky Martin brought a generational Puerto Rican connection to the performance.
Social media faces also made the cut: influencer Alix Earle appeared on stage, and rising Puerto Rican rapper Young Miko was spotted in the background. Karol G made a brief appearance, adding star power without dominating the stage. Even Toñita — owner of the Brooklyn Caribbean Social Club frequently referenced in Bad Bunny’s music — handed him a drink mid-performance, grounding the spectacle in his roots.
The result was a halftime show that balanced spectacle and personal touch, blending pop culture, Puerto Rican pride, and unexpected flashes of celebrity. For Bad Bunny, the stage was bigger than the game — and he made sure everyone knew it.
