As anticipation builds for Bad Bunny’s halftime performance at Super Bowl 60, indie wrestling star La Leona openly expresses her support.
On February 8, 2026, just hours before the music icons took the stage at Levi’s Stadium, La Leona shared a message of pride and unity on Instagram. She posted a photo of herself in an orange bikini next to a painted Puerto Rican flag, captioning it emphatically, “P FK R 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷 Bad Bunny and Puerto Rico, today is your day!!!”
This message came amidst a heated political backdrop regarding Bad Bunny’s show. Following his remarks at the 2026 Grammy Awards, where he denounced U.S. immigration policies, saying, “Stop ICE. We are not savages, we are not animals, we are not aliens, we are humans, and we are Americans.”, there are reports that protest groups are planning a significant walkout during his Super Bowl performance.
Former WWE personality Kayla Braxton commented on the tensions just a day prior, attributing racist motivations to the pushback against Bad Bunny’s show.
“Okay, if you’re going to leave…can the rest of us take turns coming in and enjoying the show? No seats should be wasted. We’ll keep you warm until your racism goes away.”
Having performed at the halftime show in 2020 alongside Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny will now make history as the first solo Super Bowl halftime act to perform mainly in Spanish. At a press conference on February 5, he expressed his desire to share joy and culture on such a significant platform.
“I just want people to have fun…a lot of my culture, of course. I don’t want to spoil it, but it’s going to be a lot of fun! I know I said it would take four months to learn Spanish, but no, come prepared to dance.”
As anticipation grows and eyes turn to the stage, support from figures like La Leona serves as a powerful reminder that this isn’t merely a performance, but a cultural statement.
