I can\u2019t wait to watch it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nMeanwhile, Bad Bunny recently told his critics that they have four months to learn Spanish before his Super Bowl performance.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn his monologue on Saturday Night Live, he said: &#8220;I&#8217;m really excited to be doing the Super Bowl, I know that people all around the world who love my music are also happy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Dakiti rapper then switched to his native language for 30 seconds, before firing a message to his detractors.<\/p>\n<p>\nBad Bunny &#8211; whose real name is Benito Antonio Mart\u00ednez Ocasio &#8211; said in Spanish: &#8220;Especially all of the Latinos and Latinas in the world here in the United States who have worked to open doors. It&#8217;s more than a win for myself, it&#8217;s a win for all of us. Our footprints and our contribution in this country, no one will ever be able to take away or erase it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/shakira-feels-proud-bad-bunny-ahead-super-bowl-performance-1431739.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>21 October 2025 Shakira feels &#8220;proud&#8221; of Bad Bunny for performing the Super Bowl Halftime Show.
