Bad Bunny and Shakira’s Memorable Super Bowl Debut in 2020

## Bad Bunny’s Upcoming Super Bowl Performance

Bad Bunny is set to deliver a significant performance at the Super Bowl halftime show, marking a milestone in his career. However, this won’t be his first appearance on this grand stage. Back in 2020, he took the spotlight alongside Shakira during her co-headlining act with Jennifer Lopez at Super Bowl LIV.

### A Historic Collaboration

The Super Bowl LIV halftime show represented a groundbreaking collaboration between Jay Z’s Roc Nation and the NFL. The choice of Shakira and Lopez was a deliberate nod to Miami’s vibrant Latin culture, reflecting the host city’s essence that year. This event was significant as it marked the third time Latin artists headlined the Super Bowl, with Gloria Estefan having performed in both 1992 and 1999.

### Shakira and Bad Bunny’s Dynamic Duo

In Shakira’s performance, she made an impressive entry, accompanied by her sole special guest, Bad Bunny. At the start of 2020, Bad Bunny was gaining remarkable traction in the music industry. He wowed the audience with a performance of his verse from the Cardi B collaboration “I Like It” and also created a powerful mash-up of his hit “Callaita” and Shakira’s “Chantaje.”

### New Announcements and Tours on the Horizon

Recently announced as the headliner for the Super Bowl LX halftime show, Bad Bunny is set to perform on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. This news comes as a highlight in a groundbreaking year for the artist. He launched his sixth album, *Debí Tirar Más Fotos*, earlier this year and unveiled a remarkable 30-date residency at El Choli in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

### A Unique Performance Decision

Interestingly, Bad Bunny has opted out of scheduling additional performances in the United States for this year and next. He has described the Super Bowl halftime show as his sole U.S. performance during this period. Sharing his thoughts recently, he expressed concerns over fans’ safety, stating, “But there was the issue of — like, fucking ICE could be outside [my concert].”

### Expanding His Horizon

Beyond his music career, Bad Bunny starred in two films this year: *Happy Gilmore 2* and Darren Aronofsky’s *Caught Stealing*. He is also set to host the Season 51 premiere of *Saturday Night Live*, with Doja Cat joining as the musical guest next month.
