Bad Bunny
Crushes Super Bowl Halftime
… Featuring Gaga, Ricky Martin, Puerto Rico!!!

Bad Bunny just pulled out all the stops for his Super Bowl Halftime Show … using his spotlight to bring Puerto Rico to Levi’s Stadium — with a bunch of surprise appearances in the process!!
Benito shut it all the way down in Santa Clara, CA … giving music fans a breather from the New England Patriots vs. Seattle Seahawks showdown with a hit-packed, nonstop party.
BB ran through his hits … starting it off with “Tití Me Preguntó,” and going on to deliver an eclectic, high-energy set loaded with swagger and slick visuals while rocking an all-white custom fit — nope, not a dress … but we already put those rumors to bed.
Bad Bunny didn’t do it alone, though — Cardi B, Karol G, Pedro Pascal, Alix Earle, Jessica Alba and David Grutman were spotted dancing in the crowd on the field.
Lady Gaga made a surprise return to the Big Game stage with a sala-inspired rendition of “Die With a Smile” … and Ricky Martin sang “Lo Que Le Paso a Hawaii.”
There was also a heartfelt moment where Benito handed a Grammy to a little kid … and the chatter online speculated it was 5-year-old Liam Ramos, who was detained by ICE in Minnesota last month, but our sources say it was not him.
There were plenty of critics opposing the decision to go with a Spanish-speaking artist for halftime … and Turning Point USA even vowed to have their own show, which it went through with at the same time on YouTube with around five million viewers.
As for Bad Bunny? He took all the backlash in stride at the time, joking on “Saturday Night Live” last year that fans had months to learn Spanish.
He only had 13 minutes to work with, but Benito made sure to include as many cultural references as he could with the time … and some might have been missed on first watch. Toward the end, flags from Latin American countries were front and center.
There was even a wedding — with a couple exchanging “I dos” right in the middle of the show … and the report is it was a legit ceremony after the Mr. and Mrs. invited Benito to their wedding, but he had an even better idea.
A nice touch at the end — Bunny held up a football that said “Together We Are America.”

Rep. Lauren Underwood
I’m A Capitol Hill Survivor …
And I’d Survive the Show, Too!!!
Published
TMZ.com
Representative Lauren Underwood says she’s got the skills to win political debates and immunity idols … telling us Wednesday she’d kill it on the show “Survivor.”
The Democratic Congresswoman from Illinois says that she absolutely loves the long-running reality competition show … and with trust, alliances, and doing whatever it takes to win — she says that’s a lot like Congress.
Watch the clip … Underwood lays out all the reasons — including her background as a nurse and her time in the Girl Scouts — she thinks she’d crush it on “Survivor.”
Worth noting … we talked to Delaware Rep. Sarah McBride recently — and she says GOP lawmakers are better suited for the show “The Traitors.”
Sounds like Congress is obsessed with reality TV these days … which is better than when the House floor turns into a “Real Housewives”-level shouting match, we gotta say!

Patriots Wide Receiver Kyle Williams Tackles Streaker During Super Bowl 60
Kyle Williams typically isn’t tasked with making tackles on the field, but he was in Super Bowl LX.
The New England Patriots wide receiver had to take down a fan who went streaking on the field during the fourth quarter of Super Bowl 60 on Sunday, February 8, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
According to a video from MassLive reporter Mark Daniels, the streaker made his way onto the field and was quickly chased by at least four security guards.
After they couldn’t catch him, Williams took control, sprinting nearly 25 yards down the field to make the tackle.
The incident didn’t affect gameplay, as it was quickly handled.
The Seattle Seahawks went on to win the game, 29-13, for its second Super Bowl championship in franchise history (the Seahawks also won Super Bowl XLVIII in 2013).
Seattle never trailed in the game, pitching a shutout through the first three quarters. The Patriots finally found the end zone early in the fourth quarter, but the Seahawks already had a sizable lead.

Bad Bunny highlighted the halftime performance during the game, saying “God Bless America” in a set which paid tribute to his Puerto Rican roots.
The Grammy Award-winning rapper brought out a plethora of celebrities to participate in his performance, including Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, who both sang during the show.
Pedro Pascal, Cardi B, Karol G, Jessica Alba and Alix Earle were also included in the performance.
Bad Bunny finished his set with a unifying message to the audience. “The only thing more powerful than hate is love,” a billboard displayed on the Levi’s Stadium jumbotron read at the end of the set.
While the reviews for Bad Bunny’s performance were mixed, country singer Kacey Musgraves shared her positive review of the show, while taking a shot at Kid Rock.
Rock was headlining the alternative Turning Point USA All-American Halftime Show at the same time as Bad Bunny’s performance.
“Well. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done,” Musgraves wrote via X on Sunday, after watching Bad Bunny’s performance.
On the other hand, President Donald Trump was quick to show his disgust for the show on social media, after claiming previously that he wasn’t going to watch.
“The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER!” Trump, 71, posted on Truth Social just minutes after the show concluded. “It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence. Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World.”
He continued, “This ‘Show’ is just a ‘slap in the face’ to our Country, which is setting new standards and records every single day — including the Best Stock Market and 401(k)s in History! There is nothing inspirational about this mess of a Halftime Show and watch, it will get great reviews from the Fake News Media, because they haven’t got a clue of what is going on in the REAL WORLD.”

Kaitlyn Bristowe Tearfully Recounts Suffering Most Epic Breakdown
Bachelor Nation star Kaitlyn Bristowe alarmed fans after sharing candid insight into her headspace.
Bristowe, 40, took to Instagram on Sunday, February 8, to share a series of disturbing images including a candle smashed on the ground, herself in a medical gown and her face drenched in tears. She captioned the carousel, which disabled comments, with an equally cryptic yet emotional message.
“Humor helps, and I believe I have been handling a lot with grace, but … I have to be honest. I’m feeling really down, challenged, stuck, and hard on myself. I just had the most epic breakdown,” she wrote. “Not looking for sympathy, just sharing. I’ll come out of it.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Bristowe for comment.
The post arrived just hours after the reality TV star, who rose to fame as a contestant on Chris Soule’s season of The Bachelor in 2015, shared an upbeat Instagram video that captured her dancing amid a travel mishap. “When border control quietly deducts 10 days from your work visa and now you’re forced to leave the country. Jazz hands anyway,” she wrote over the earlier video.
“And I just got my power back. See you soon Toronto,” she continued. “Missing a wedding and 8 podcasts, but if anyone needs me I’ll be dancing through the curveball.”
The earlier post invited comments from fans, who took to the section to share their sympathy. “You always make the best out of a s***ty situation,” wrote one fan, while another wrote, “Omg you poor thing. I love you for your attitude though.”
Bristowe is no stranger to sharing cryptic hints at her personal life. While rumors of a romance between her and fellow Bachelor Nation alum Zac Clark have swirled for two years, Bristowe shared a public tribute to Clark, 42, via Instagram in January. After Clark shared a carousel of photos that celebrated his recent birthday, one of which captured him hugging a birthday cake that read “F*** fruit,” Bristowe brought Clark down a peg by commenting, “Natures candy. Weirdo. Happy birthday.”
Despite her playful social media activity, Bristowe is not likely to be sharing any official relationship details any time soon. She told Us Weekly in August 2025 that she’s keeping her love life under wraps. “Privacy is so hot, like, I am turned on by being private. There’s something really special and sacred about it,” Bristowe told Us. “Obviously, I had two very public relationships, and I’m an over-sharer and an open book, and it’s very hard to not share certain things of my life, but it feels so right. Relationships from Bachelor franchise or people online, like, it starts to feel a bit performative at times. And I feel like that was where it was going for me last time, and it did not feel good.”
Bristowe had been referring to her engagement to Shawn Booth, whom she met as the Bachelorette and was with for three years, as well as her engagement to Bachelorette contestant, Jason Tartick, which ended in August 2023.

Why Vince Gilligan’s Latest Update on ‘Pluribus’ Season 2 Is Actually a Good Thing
Every week, when Apple TV‘s hit sci-fi show Pluribus released a new episode, it answered many questions while posing even more. From Manousos’ (Carlos-Manuel Vesga) exploration of radio frequencies and how they tie into how the Others communicate to just how much of humanity’s former selves remain in the hivemind, Vince Gilligan‘s series is filled with unique and fascinating mysteries. This intrigue can be both a blessing and a curse, as viewers are eager to continue the journey with Carol (Rhea Seehorn) following the events of the Season 1 finale.
Recent comments from Gilligan, however, imply that fans will need to be extra patient as the show’s writing team constructs the future narrative. Rather than seeing this as a disappointment, fans should appreciate the writers taking their time with a project like this. Even if it conflicts with the desire to return to the traditional TV format of a season every year, it’s far better for Pluribus to be well-executed than rushed.
‘Pluribus’ Won’t Be Returning With a New Season Every Year, Says Vince Gilligan
One of the most impressive things about Gilligan’s storytelling is a minute attention to detail. In Pluribus, on the heels of Gilligan’s two biggest shows, Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, there are Easter eggs and subtle foreshadowing throughout that eagle-eyed viewers delight in spotting, but this kind of detail doesn’t come easily, requiring multiple rewrites and brainstorming sessions to create.
At Apple TV’s recent press day, where Collider was in attendance, Gilligan confirmed as much, explaining that while the show’s writers are “deeper into the process at this moment” than he expected, there are still only “[a] few episodes we have figured out.” Gilligan compared the “patience” required by fans to how the show’s release schedule won’t take a page from “The Pitt coming back every year.” While some may be disappointed that Gilligan and his team won’t be bringing Pluribus back to our screens anytime soon, viewers should respect the writers’ desire to maintain their meticulous approach to the narrative, choosing to get it right rather than simply get it done.
Fans Should Trust Vince Gilligan and Be Patient About the Wait for ‘Pluribus’ Season 2
One of the recent developments in the television landscape has been the pace at which shows are released, with the streaming model becoming dominant and leading to longer wait times between seasons. More recent series, however, have seen a return to the traditional format of releasing a season every year, like The Pitt, which Gilligan emphasized as an “old school” method that parallels his own previous experience writing for The X-Files. There’s no doubt that critics will use Noah Wyle‘s hit HBO medical drama or even the soon-to-be returning Daredevil: Born Again as proof that Pluribus is taking too long to deliver a second season, which exemplifies one of streaming TV’s most frustrating trends.
However, no two shows are the same, and a release strategy that works for one series wouldn’t necessarily fit another. The Pitt and Daredevil: Born Again have clear throughlines with more grounded worlds, which likely makes the writing process easier. In contrast, Pluribus is unique; the Others, and their mysterious origins and mechanisms of assimilation, require far more mapping out in the writers’ room to figure out what is and isn’t possible in this sci-fi world.
This is not to say that viewers should rejoice that they will have to wait longer for another season of Pluribus, as even Gilligan acknowledges that he “[wishes] it would be” possible for his creative team to release a new season every year. Instead, these comments serve as a message to fans to sit tight and have faith that progress is being made. Pluribus Season 2 may not premiere next year, but it will come, and when it does, it will be more than worth it because of the time that went into crafting its story, not despite it.

Cardi B Touches Down For Super Bowl LX As Stefon Diggs Faces Legal Turmoil

Cardi B’s viral robot moment comes as she’s spending Super Bowl week in San Francisco, where she’s expected to cheer on Stefon Diggs and the New England Patriots as they face off against the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl LX. But while Diggs prepares for the biggest game of his career, he’s also dealing with serious off-field drama.
Article continues below advertisement
Just days before kickoff, the Patriots wide receiver was hit with a lawsuit alleging defamation, civil conspiracy, and more. As The Blast reported, a man who claims he previously worked for Diggs says the NFL star asked him in July 2024 to help arrange transport for Diggs’ Ferrari from Miami to New York and then to Houston. The car was later reported stolen in Houston, a theft the man says law enforcement ultimately concluded was carried out by third parties in a sophisticated operation.
Despite that, the plaintiff alleges Diggs began telling people in their shared circles that he was responsible for the theft. The man says he was never arrested or charged, but claims the accusations severely damaged his concierge and consulting business.

Partying At Michael Rubin’s Fanatics Super Bowl Bash

In addition to making headlines online, Cardi B was also spotted out and about in San Francisco’s elite Super Bowl party circuit. The rapper attended the 2026 Fanatics Super Bowl Party, the ultra-exclusive event hosted by Michael Rubin, founder and CEO of Fanatics.
The star-studded bash took place Saturday night at Pier 48 in San Francisco and drew a who’s who of celebrities and athletes ahead of Super Bowl LX. Cardi mingled alongside major NFL names, including Joe Burrow and Tom Brady, as music, fashion, and football worlds collided for one of the most talked-about parties of the weekend.
Cardi B Plays Coy On Possible Bad Bunny Halftime Cameo

With Bad Bunny set to headline the Super Bowl LX halftime show, speculation around surprise guest appearances has been swirling all week, and Cardi B has been at the center of it. The Grammy-winning rapper, who previously teamed up with Bad Bunny on their chart-topping hit “I Like It,” was asked directly by a reporter whether fans could expect to see her pop up during the halftime performance.
Rather than shut the idea down or confirm anything, Cardi kept her answer deliberately vague. “It would be exciting,” she said, flashing a knowing smile before declining to elaborate further, even as the reporter pressed for more details.
Fans will certainly be watching closely when Bad Bunny takes the stage tonight, Sunday, February 8, to see if the two reunite under the brightest spotlight in sports.

Chris Brown Throws Shade at Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl 60 Halftime Show
Chris Brown made his feelings clear about Bad Bunny’s halftime show at Super Bowl 60 on Sunday, February 8.
“I THINK IT’S SAFE TO SAY.. THEY NEED ME!! 😏,” Brown, 36, posted via his Instagram Story at the conclusion of Bad Bunny’s performance.
The Puerto Rican rapper’s show was an energetic celebration of his Puerto Rican roots, featuring cameos from Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, Karol G and more.
Bad Bunny being selected as Super Bowl halftime performer drew a broad spectrum of reactions after it was announced in September 2025.
One of the first to criticize the choice was former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick, who complained about Bad Bunny performing in Spanish.
“Oh fun,” Patrick, 42, wrote via X. “No songs in English should not be allowed at one of America’s highest rated television events of the year … not just for sports.”
Patrick doubled down on her criticism days later during an appearance on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast.

“The Super Bowl is the most highly-watched show that we have on television in the whole year,” Patrick said. “127 million people are estimated to watch it. It’s the crown jewel on television and in sports, in particular. It’s where we come together as a country. We enjoy it, we have parties, we love watching the halftime performance. We know we love to sing along to the halftime performance and it’s usually one of those that’s very versatile across so many different age ranges.”
She continued, “I don’t have any problem with someone performing at halftime that is not from the United States, although Bad Bunny is technically a citizen because he was born in Puerto Rico,” she continued. “He wasn’t necessarily born in America. I don’t care where you’re actually born. What I care about is that I can sing along to the music. His music is almost nothing in English. I don’t think it will be as much fun. I don’t think it will be as uniting. What I would hate to see is that it would divide us again, in yet another way.”

Pro football Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson bashed the selection of Bad Bunny, though he admitted he was unfamiliar with the rapper.
“I don’t even know who the hell the guy is. I’ve never heard of him,” Dickerson, 65, told TMZ in October 2025. “I’m not that big into music. What’s his name? What the hell does Bad Bunny sing? I don’t know one of [his] songs.”
Dickerson added, “Keep his ass in Puerto Rico.”
Despite some major pushback, Bad Bunny had plenty of A-list supporters in his corner, including Jennifer Lopez.
“I think he’s about to blow everybody’s mind,” Lopez, 56, said during an October appearance on the Today show. “It’s an introduction to some people.”
When asked about the backlash, Lopez added, “I don’t understand that. He’s one of the top artists in the world right now, probably the top.”
