NFL Taps Bad Bunny for Super Bowl LX Halftime

The NFL is retooling its 2026 Pro Bowl, moving it to the Moscone Center in San Francisco — a roughly 4,000‑seat, weekday setup tied to the Super Bowl site and centered on a flag‑football game the league sees as complementary to flag football’s planned 2028 Olympic debut. Commissioner Roger Goodell said he met with players about improvements that prompted the date and location change, but the league hasn’t committed to making the arrangement permanent. Separately, the NFL tapped Puerto Rican star Bad Bunny to headline the Super Bowl LX halftime show on Feb. 8, 2026 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara. The pick has provoked criticism from conservative figures including former President Donald Trump and MAGA supporters. Goodell defended the decision as “carefully thought through,” calling Bad Bunny “one of the leading and most popular entertainers in the world” and saying the show could still evolve to include additional guest performers. Organizers and supporters point to Bad Bunny’s global streaming dominance, multiple Grammys and prior Super Bowl experience as reasons for confidence despite the backlash.
