New York: Grammy-winning Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny will headline next year's Super Bowl halftime show, the NFL said on Sunday, ending speculation that Taylor Swift was being lined up for the American football showpiece.
Bad Bunny, who earlier this month said he would not perform in the United States during his world tour starting in November due to concerns about US immigration raids at his concerts, will take center-stage at the Super Bowl in Santa Clara, California on February 8.
"What I'm feeling goes beyond myself," the artist said in a statement released by the NFL. "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."
Super Bowl halftime shows have traditionally attracted the biggest names in the music world, with past performers reading like a who's who of the industry, including the likes of Michael Jackson, the Rolling Stones, Madonna, Bruce Springsteen, Prince and Paul McCartney.
More recent performers have included Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Timberlake, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar. Bad Bunny was a guest act alongside Lopez at the 2020 Super Bowl in Miami.
