"Bad Bunny and his Super Bowl halftime show had already generated a lot of buzz even before it took place, due to the implications of a show like that of the Puerto Rican artist in a United States under the presidency of Donald Trump. On February 8, 128 million people (in the United States alone) watched the performance live, analyzing every detail to praise or criticize it."
"For those aligned with the Republican president, it was an affront to American values, while for many Americans, it was a powerful message of diversity and inclusion. This was reflected in the atmosphere of Bad Bunny's La Casita, where Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, and Karol G were seen dancing. What many didn't understand was the presence of Alix Earle, a 25-year-old influencer from New Jersey who, at first glance, seems to have no connection to the artist."
"You've never used your platform or your voice for the messages Bad Bunny conveys. This is unbelievable and undeserved, said one user on a video Earle shared on her TikTok profile where she has 8.3 million followers to summarize her Super Bowl experience. So you're no longer a MAGA? An example of loving Latin culture but not Latinos, added others who also found her presence hypocritical."
Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show drew 128 million live U.S. viewers and provoked intense public reaction. Supporters saw a message of diversity and inclusion, while critics aligned with the Republican president regarded it as an affront to American values. The performance atmosphere included celebrities like Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, and Karol G dancing at La Casita. The presence of influencer Alix Earle, a 25-year-old from New Jersey with 8.3 million TikTok followers, prompted accusations of hypocrisy from viewers. Earle responded with a heart emoji and a brief defense. The influencer's invitation is linked to Miami nightlife entrepreneur David Grutman.
