An emotional Alex Cora explains why Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance meant so much to him
"I know the language barrier is the language barrier, but it was an outstanding show. And there's a lot of stuff - like this morning I watched it again just to see the details. The cool thing about him, and I'll give him credit because he's developed into this icon, and he's true to his roots. I'm a proud Puerto Rican."
"I was like, 'Oh that's cool.' And towards the end the whole electric grid, all that stuff that's real for us, and he wasn't afraid of showing people how we're living right now. But the guy's a stud and, when you got people tweeting about you, good or bad, people watch, which was the main point. So kudos to him."
Alex Cora celebrated Bad Bunny's first-ever all-Spanish Super Bowl Halftime Show as outstanding despite language barriers. Cora emphasized Bad Bunny's authenticity and development into an icon who stays true to Puerto Rican roots. Cora described culturally specific moments—the sleeping child at the wedding, a coconut stand, piraguas (shaved ice), and a neighborhood beauty parlor—as meaningful details. Cora noted the show's depiction of real-life challenges like the electric grid and said the performance captured widespread attention, regardless of positive or negative reactions, and offered kudos to Bad Bunny.
