Bad Bunny is on a roll. The Latin superstar just made history with his Grammy win for Album of the Year and will keep his historic streak going when he delivers the first Super Bowl halftime headlining show in Spanish on Sunday. Bad Bunny has already promised “the world will dance” in a preview trailer, so it’s bound to be one hell of a blowout bash as the star celebrates his beloved Puerto Rico on the national stage.

But what’s a party without a killer guest list? During his “No Me Quiero Ir De Aqui” residency in P.R. last year, the star invited a star-studded Rolodex of past collaborators and famous friends each night. It only makes sense he would bring some of those same folks, and even bigger stars, out for his big moment at the Super Bowl. We’re not sure what he’s going to do yet: Given his ICE speeches at the Grammys, it’s likely he could get political. He could also dedicate the entire performance to Puerto Rico. But while we’re guessing, here’s a list of potential performers we think Bad Bunny may bring out on Sunday.


Cardi B

Latino gang! Cardi B brought a young Bad Bunny onto her smash hit “I Like It” back in 2018. (Benito actually performed the song at the Super Bowl halftime show when he was Shakira’s guest.) Plus, the Dominican singer will already be at Levi’s Stadium cheering on her boyfriend, Patriots wide-receiver Stefan Diggs as he plays in the big game, so it’s possible she could hit the stage, too.

Drake

Back in 2018, when he was on the rise, Bad Bunny released one of his most iconic collaborations: He got Drake to hop on “Mia” and sing in Spanish. Now, seven years later, the two musicians often battle it out as the most-streamed artists on Spotify every year. What better full-circle moment than to perform “Mia” at the Super Bowl?

Post Malone

Bad Bunny brought Post Malone out for an acoustic moment during his historic Coachella set in 2023. Unfortunately, Posty’s microphone stopped working due to technical difficulties and that part of the set was cut short. What better way to make-up for that performance than on the Super Bowl halftime show stage? After all, Post Malone will already be in the Bay Area that weekend playing Bud Light Presents Post Malone & Buddies.

Marc Anthony

Last year, Bad Bunny wrapped his history-making residency at Puerto Rico’s El Choli with salsa legend Marc Anthony. It was a Boricua night for the books as the two performed the beloved classic “Preciosa.” If Benito wants to recreate that moment for his beloved archipelago at the Super Bowl, Marc Anthony feels like the perfect guest.

Jennifer Lopez

Jennifer Lopez and Shakira enlisted Bad Bunny as a special guest when they headlined the Super Bowl halftime show in 2020, so it would be a full-circle moment if Benito returned the favor. Back in October, Lopez quelled any anticipation that she would be a surprise guest at this year’s Super Bowl, saying she hadn’t received a call about it. But, the singer also was totally game. “Of course if he wanted me to do something, I would definitely do it,” she told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live.

Young Miko

Young Miko hopped on Bad Bunny’s 2023 hit “Fina” and will also be in town celebrating the Super Bowl. The Puerto Rican rapper was just announced as a special performer at the A Night of Pride with GLAAD concert, a private NFL-hosted event. It’s very possible Miko could stay a couple days longer to join her fellow Boricua for his big moment.

Romeo Santos

Romeo Santos recently joined Bad Bunny on the Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour stop in the Dominican Republic. The pair sang a bachata version of DTMF cut “Bokete,” which would absolutely kill on the Super Bowl stage. They could also perform 2021’s “Volví,” which saw Bad Bunny teaming up with Santos’ OG band Aventura for bachata and merengue típico.

Rosalía

Back in 2021, Bad Bunny made his Saturday Night Live musical guest debut. He invited Rosalía to partake in the special moment and the pair delivered a sensual performance of “La Noche de Anoche.” The Super Bowl would be an opportune time for Bad Bunny bring the Spanish singer out for yet another milestone — especially as both artists continue to dominate Spanish-language music.

Daddy Yankee

Truly nothing could get the world dancing like Bad Bunny and Daddy Yankee breaking out the ultimate reggaeton crossover hit “Gasolina.” This doesn’t seem quite possible, though, since Daddy Yankee shut the idea down in November 2025. “No, not right now,” he answered when asked if he would play the iconic track at the Super Bowl alongside Benito. “I’m on a different mission right now… even though I respect what he’s doing right now. Don’t get me wrong. Benito is an ally.”

Bad Bunny is the ultimate Little Monster — if you couldn’t tell from all his interactions with Mother Monster at the 2026 Grammys. It would be spectacular for Benito to share the stage with one of his idols and if the theme is bust a move, “Just Dance” is literally right there.

Ricky Martin

It’s been almost six years since Ricky Martin and Bad Bunny shared the stage together when they performed their salsa homage to Héctor Lavoe at the 2019 Latin Grammys. (They have also teamed up for more powerful moments, like while protesting in Puerto Rico that same year.) The two superstars could very well reunite on the Super Bowl stage for a true Boricua fest.

Becky G

Becky G just joined Bad Bunny in Santiago, Chile on the Debí Tirar Más Fotos world tour to sing their “Mayores,” the 2017 hit that helped kick-off both of their careers. “Benito, I love you. I’m super proud of you. What an honor to be a guest on this incredible tour that’s making history,” the Mexican singer said during the performance. Maybe it’s time to recreate that magic.

Residente

Residente and Bad Bunny have a long history of creating and fighting injustices in Puerto Rico together, teaming up for defiant anthems like 2019’s “Afilando los Cuchillos” to protest then-governor of Puerto Rico Ricardo Rosselló. The Super Bowl would be a huge moment for the Puerto Rican rapper to join Benito and maybe even sing some iconic Calle 13 songs.

María Zardoya

María Zardoya of the Marías joined Bad Bunny during his Puerto Rico residency to sing one of DTMF’s most political songs, “Lo Que Paso Hawaii.” Of course, The Marías also appear on Benito’s “Otro Atardecer” so there’s plenty of opportunities for Zardoya to show out at the Super Bowl.

No One

There’s totally a chance that Bad Bunny doesn’t bring out any special guests at the Super Bowl halftime show and, instead, uses the opportunity to highlight the people of Puerto Rico and the island’s rich culture. That could mean colorful bomba dancers or a group of plena musicians — and maybe even La Casita will make an appearance. Regardless, the performance will be one to remember.

Jack White Can Barely Find the Words for That 22-Foot Golden Trump Statue

Jack White once again expressed his incredulity at those who literally idolize Donald Trump with a recent Instagram post about a new 22-foot golden statue of the president.

The statue was recently dedicated at the Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami, with evangelical pastor Mark Burns leading the proceedings. Like many things in Trumpworld, the event was comically rich with irony and hypocrisy, what with all the Bible says about worshiping false idols and that whole little story about the golden calf.

Spotify Will Now Tell You Who Your All-Time Most-Streamed Artist Is — If You Dare

What song were you super into in 2006? Was it the Fray’s “How to Save a Life,” the Black Eyed Peas’ “My Humps,” Bon Jovi’s “Who Says You Can’t Go Home,” or, say, any song from the first season of Hannah Montana? How many times in a row did you play that song? Do you really want to remember? Well, now you can, since a new feature on Spotify allows users who feel secure enough in their taste in music to dive deep into their personal stats, going back to when the platform launched 20 years ago. Fortuitously, it also shows users how their musical interests have (hopefully) improved since then.
