Bad Bunny shuts down Super Bowl question as he says 'why would you ask that'
By Melody Rivera The Mirror
After his last on-stage appearance, it is confirmed that Bad Bunny won't be giving away any "surprises" about his Super Bowl halftime performance.
While speaking to Apple Music on Thursday, February 5, the Grammy Award-winning singer spoke with Ebro Darden and Zane Lowe about his upcoming performance at the Super Bowl LX, where the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks will face off.
After discussing the highly anticipated show and his past experience on the stage with Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, Lowe had asked him to reveal if there would be any "surprises" on Sunday, February 8. He questioned, "I'm just going to ask it. Are you going to do the same thing? Will you have guests on stage?"
Bad Bunny sharply responded, "Well, you know that's something I'm not going to tell you.
"I don't know why you would ask that," he added.
The singer then hinted, "I have a lot of guests," before jokingly adding, "with family, with friends, all the Latino community around the world that support me, the whole country."
Although he refused to reveal any special guests or surprises, Bad Bunny did share what people should expect.
"I know that the world is going to be happy this Sunday and they're gonna have fun and dance," he shared. "They're going to have a good time.
"I just want people to have fun. There's going to be a huge party. It's going to be what people can expect from me."
The Puerto Rican rapper said he also wants to bring "a lot of my culture," leading him to give a word of advice for the audience.
"I know i told people they have 4 months to learn Spanish but they don't even have to learn," he mentioned. "It'd be better if they learned to dance."
During a statement shared later that week, the singer went into more detail on his gratitude for the opportunity.
"What I'm feeling goes beyond myself," he started. "It's for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown… this is for my people, my culture, and our history."
Bad Bunny's performance will come a week after he attended the 68th Annual Grammy Awards and went home with two wins, including Album of the Year, making him the first Spanish-language artist to do so
