Overview
- Hosting Saturday Night Live’s season 51 premiere, Bad Bunny joked that “even Fox News” was happy about his Super Bowl booking before switching to Spanish and closing with, “If you didn’t understand what I just said, you have four months to learn.”
- In Spanish, he called the halftime slot an accomplishment shared with Latinos in the U.S. and worldwide, saying their mark and contribution to the country cannot be erased.
- Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said DHS and ICE would be “all over” Super Bowl LX, echoing adviser Corey Lewandowski, while the White House press secretary said there was no tangible plan for ICE at the event.
- Bad Bunny did not address potential immigration enforcement at the game during his monologue, focusing instead on humor and representation.
- The Super Bowl is scheduled for Feb. 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, and analysts say the NFL’s choice is commercially savvy despite conservative criticism of the Spanish-language star.
