"Bad Bunny turned in an epic, nearly 14-minute long performance, which featured hits like "DTMF" and "Tití Me Preguntó." His performance shined a spotlight on Puerto Rican culture and history with big-budget set pieces and cameos from the likes of Cardi B and Pedro Pascal, reminding viewers about the power of unity. (A message reinforced by a football inscribed with, "Together, we are America" held up at its conclusion.)"
"Clad in bright red lipstick and a pleated baby blue dress, Lady Gaga appeared out of thin air for a salsa rendition of "Die With a Smile." And if that wasn't enough for the queer community, the cameras then cut to fellow Puerto Rican superstar Ricky Martin, making him the first out gay man to perform in the Super Bowl halftime show."
"Seated in a white plastic chair amongst a sea of Puerto Rican plantain trees, Ricky Martin belted out a few bars from Bad Bunny's "Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii," a defiant warning against gentrification in his homeland. To say it was a full circle moment for the "Livin' La Vida Loca" singer, who came out as gay in 2010 after years of hiding his truth, would be an understatement."
