VARIOUS OF BAD BUNNY POSING FOR PHOTOS AT MET GALA STORY: The NFL remains committed to featuring Bad Bunny as its Super Bowl halftime show headliner, Commissioner Roger Goodell insisted on Wednesday (October 22) in this press briefing following the league’s fall meeting. Despite criticism, including from U.S. President Donald Trump, the NFL is standing by its choice, citing the artist’s global popularity. Goodell explained that the selection had been thoroughly planned and that every halftime show choice that they have made has had its share of controversy. 31-year-old Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, has been vocal against Trump and his policies, notably, opting for a 31-day residency in Puerto Rico due to concerns over mass deportations. Super Bowl 60 is set for February 8 at the San Francisco 49ers’ Levi’s Stadium, with Bad Bunny expected to perform in Spanish. It is unclear if Trump will attend. (Production: Stefan Haskins)
