As Bad Bunny gets ready for the Super Bowl 60 halftime show on February 8 in Santa Clara, much of the talk has been focused on what he’ll wear for the Halftime show.
Social media and the rest of the media have recently claimed he might wear a dress during the show, but new reports say that isn’t true.
Rumors Surrounding Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Performance
The dress rumor began circulating in late January. It was fueled by social posts and speculation about whether Bad Bunny, known for pushing style boundaries, might make a bold fashion statement.
After all, it is one of the world’s biggest stages for the entertainment industry.
Some fans saw the look as a nod to queer culture, while others treated it as a point in broader debates about culture and football, which brought tensions from both sides of the argument.
The rumor spread so widely that it caught the attention of both political and entertainment media. Some conservative voices called the rumored dress part of a bigger cultural conflict over the NFL’s halftime show, leading to boycott calls and even a separate “All-American Halftime Show” organized by Turning Point USA.
Even with all the talk, reports from TMZ and other sources with inside knowledge say a dress is not part of Bad Bunny’s halftime outfit. While the full costume is still a secret, people close to the show told TMZ he will not wear a dress during his performance.
For football fans who care most about the game and the halftime show, this update should help everyone focus again on what really matters.

The performance will be carried live on NBC and streaming platforms, and it’s poised to be one of the most-watched segments of the broadcast, not just for his music but for the wider cultural significance of a Spanish-language artist at the helm.
Bad Bunny previously joined Shakira and Jennifer Lopez as a guest during the Super Bowl 54 halftime show in 2020. But leading the show solo marks a change in how the NFL chooses its halftime performers, with an artist who will attract a broader global audience.
Whatever fans may have heard the rumors online, Bad Bunny will headline the Super Bowl halftime show, and he won’t be wearing a dress. As the much-anticipated game between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks draws closer, fans will also be on the lookout for the halftime show performance and how it fits into the Super Bowl’s broader story.
