The Super Bowl LX halftime show, headlined by Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny, continued the event’s tradition of high-profile guest appearances, featuring a diverse array of stars during the performance on Sunday. Bad Bunny, one of the world’s most streamed musicians, faced some initial criticism for being a Spanish-language performer, but his selection underscored the growing global influence of Latin music.
The show incorporated multiple cameos, weaving various celebrities into the stage production. Musical collaborators were prominent among the guests. Bad Bunny was joined by fellow Puerto Rican icon Ricky Martin, creating a generational moment for Latin pop. Colombian singer Karol G also appeared on the main stage, as did Puerto Rican rapper Young Miko, who was visible in the background.
The performance also attracted actors and mainstream celebrities. Pedro Pascal and Jessica Alba were both seen within a “casita” (small house) set piece on the field. Lady Gaga made a significant musical cameo, joining Bad Bunny for a duet of her song “Die With a Smile.” Additionally, influencer Alix Earle, recognized by Mashable as a top creator, had a brief appearance.
The cameos extended beyond entertainment figures to include personal connections from Bad Bunny’s career. María Antonia “Toñita” Cay, the owner of the Brooklyn-based Caribbean Social Club—a venue Bad Bunny frequents and references in his music—was seen handing the performer a drink on stage. Her appearance highlighted the artist’s roots and community ties.
The inclusion of such a wide range of guests, from global superstars to local figures, reinforced the Super Bowl halftime show’s format as a spectacle built on collaborative moments. Bad Bunny’s performance, featuring these numerous appearances, served as a prominent showcase for Spanish-language and Latin music on one of America’s largest televised stages. The event is subject to further official confirmation of all participants as post-event coverage continues.
