Bad Bunny says fans should be prepared to dance during Super Bowl half-time performance

Puerto Rican star Bad Bunny will give a highly anticipated Super Bowl half-time performance on Sunday, promising fans they should be prepared to dance.

The singer and rapper, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, is one of the world's most-streamed musicians.

But not all were happy with his selection as half-time headliner, with Donald Trump calling it "absolutely ridiculous".

The 31-year-old has been highly critical of the US president's deportation policies and supported Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.

He will perform a week after winning album of the year at the 2026 Grammys for Debi Tirar Mas Fotos - the first time an all Spanish-language album scooped the top award.

At a news conference ahead of the Super Bowl, he joked those watching do not need to learn Spanish to enjoy his set, but they should get ready to dance.

"To be honest, I don't know how I'm feeling. There's a lot. I'm still in the middle of my tour. I was just at the Grammys last week. All of that," he said, speaking English at a press event on Thursday.

"I'm excited, but at the same time, I feel more excited about the people than even me - my family, my friends, the people who have always believed in me," he added.

"This moment, the culture - that's what makes these shows special."

It will not be the first time the musician has performed on the Super Bowl stage, having previously appeared during the half-time show at Super Bowl LIV in 2020 alongside Jennifer Lopez and Shakira.

"It's going to be a huge party," he said. "What people can expect from me... I want to bring to the stage, of course, a lot of my culture. But I really don't, I don't want to give any spoilers. It's going to be fun."

Asked if he will have any surprise guests, he replied: "That's something I'm not going to tell you."

The Super Bowl will take place on Sunday at the Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, where the Seattle Seahawks will face the New England Patriots.

Green Day will play a set before the game to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Super Bowl.
