"Super Bowl LX's Halftime Show at Levi's Stadium on Feb. 8 features Bad Bunny, the massively popular yet polarizing Puerto Rican singer. His selection has created such a stir that it's easy to forget that for nearly half of its existence, the halftime performances have served up a collection of university marching bands, veteran comedians and singers, soft-jazz musicians, Elvis impersonators and Up With People."
"Two years later, Michael Jackson ushered in the Halftime Show's modern era, and since then, A-list performers - some more relevant than others - have been the staple of Super Bowl Halftime Shows. But controversy has not. Although the event may be defined by some for such polarizing moments as Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake's "Nipplegate" (2004) or M.I.A.'s middle-finger salute during Madonna's Halftime Show (2014), most Halftime Shows have featured solid performances from dependable acts such as Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga and Beyoncé."
Super Bowl halftime performances have evolved dramatically over 60 years from university marching bands and variety acts to A-list pop headliners. Super Bowl LX will feature Bad Bunny at Levi's Stadium on Feb. 8, a polarizing and massively popular Puerto Rican singer whose selection has generated significant stir and political backlash. President Donald Trump publicly criticized the choice, called it a "terrible choice," said he will skip the game, and previously called the selection "absolutely ridiculous." Bad Bunny has expressed opposition to Trump and his policies. Halftime shows have produced both memorable entertainment and occasional controversy.
