The Super Bowl halftime show is arguably more anticipated than the first half of the actual game. Fans spend months knowing who the artist will be and can’t wait to see which songs they choose and how the show turns out.
The Super Bowl headliner can keep the performance solo or bring in guest performers. Bad Bunny has been chosen as the Super Bowl 60 halftime performer. While he has grown into an international megastar, this will not be the first time he has appeared on the NFL’s biggest stage.
