Pedro Pascal Didn’t Know He’d Be in Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Show

Published by Daniella Wilson

Pedro Pascal didn’t know he’d be involved in Bad Bunny‘s 2026 Super Bowl halftime performance until right before he was being brought onto the field. The Last of Us actor reflected on his cameo in the Grammy Award winner’s monumental Super Bowl performance in a profile with Fantastic Man. Pascal admitted that he reached out to Bad Bunny’s team about participating somehow, even if that meant he’d be volunteering or serving coffee. “I wanted to participate in any way — literally a volunteer position, like serving coffee if needed — and I put the feelers out through people I work with,” he said. “When it comes to representation synchronized with celebration there’s no one better than Benito at the moment, and that fills me with inspiration outside of just being super into his music.” The Emmy nominee explained he went into shooting Tony Gilroy’s Behemoth! and hadn’t heard back from Bad Bunny’s team, so he “sent someone an email with a selfie of me sticking my tongue out, being, like, ‘It’s really me.’ Within 25 …

Jessica Alba had “full body chills and was so emotional” being a part of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday. The Fantastic Four actress and businesswoman, who is Mexican-American, made a cameo as one of the dancers in the Puerto Rican artist’s iconic “La Casita,” alongside Alix Earle, Cardi B, Karol G, Pedro Pascal, Ronald Acuña Jr. and Young Miko. On Monday, she reflected on the experience, writing on Instagram, “What an honor to be part of such an extraordinary moment in history! La casita – let’s gooooo! Joy you could feel. Pride you could see. A beautiful love letter to Puerto Rico – and to all of America.” Alba also shared a video, which featured some clips that she filmed while on the Levi’s Stadium field. “Yesterday was bigger than a performance,” the Sin City actress continued in her post. “It was Dignity. Inclusion. Unity. Representation. And Love. Benito ‘Bad Bunny’ tells stories rooted in his culture, his people, and his truth — and yesterday, those stories were centered on one of the …

No. 2 All Time With 125 Million Viewers

The 60th Super Bowl drew, as usual, a gigantic audience — but it had to settle for coming in just behind last year’s record-setting telecast. NBC and Peacock’s telecast of Super Bowl LX — a lopsided, 29-13 victory for the Seattle Seahawks over the New England Patriots — averaged 124.93 million viewers, based on Nielsen’s final same-day ratings (the numbers also include Telemundo’s Spanish language broadcast and streaming on other NBCUniversal and NFL digital outlets). That’s off a scant 2 percent from Super Bowl LIX in 2025, which set an all-time U.S. audience record of 127.71 million viewers across Fox, Tubi, Telemundo and NFL digital properties. NBC did set an all-time record for peak viewership, with 137.8 million viewers from 7:45-8 p.m. ET, during the game’s second quarter. The halftime show starring Bad Bunny scored higher than the game as a whole with 128.2 million viewers, also down a bit (4 percent) from the 133.5 million viewers for Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance a year ago. The halftime show racked up huge numbers on social media, recording a …

Hollywood is reacting to the Seattle Seahawks winning Super Bowl LX. After dominating the majority of the big event, the Seahawks triumphed over the New England Patriots on Sunday at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The win marks their second Super Bowl championship ever; this was also their fourth time playing in the big game. Chris Pratt, an avid supporter of the Seahawks, shared a series of videos and photos celebrating the team’s win. In his post, he appeared on the field with the team and also in the locker room with quarterback Sam Darnold. “What a season! So endlessly proud to be one of the 12s!

Go hawks!” The Guardians of the Galaxy actor notably introduced the Seattle-based team just before kickoff. …

Cultural Take on Bad Bunny Performance

Cultural Take on Bad Bunny Performance

Published by Daniella Wilson

Facing hatred, Bad Bunny led the Super Bowl with love.  When the superstar said everyone would dance during the Super Bowl halftime show, Latinos around the world immediately knew what that meant: that we’d be watching a collective celebration of Caribbean Latino culture on full display.  Everyone who listened to his Grammy Award-winning Debí Tirar Más Fotos can understand how deeply ingrained his pride for his homeland is. Through symbols such as the Pava hat, the plataneras (plantain trees) and the plastic chairs visible on the album cover, he sends a clear message: This is what Puerto Rico is about.  Through these references, which are also embedded in his lyrics, he describes his culture and upbringing. With that intention, he developed his historic residency in Puerto Rico, and during the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show, we saw that story condensed into 13 minutes with a 14-song setlist. The references, the messaging and the call for unity were braided into the show, in which he performed most of the songs from Debí Tirar Más …

Super Bowl 2026 Ads: The 6 “Best” Celebrity Spots In a Rough Year

Published by Sam Flores

You know it’s a bad year for advertising when your sister texts “So far, the prostate screening one is the best,” and it’s after halftime. Some of us can trace our very fondest and earliest Super Bowl memories to 1993: not to the Dallas Cowboys and the Buffalo Bills, but to Larry Bird and Michael Jordan and Big Macs, Crystal Pepsi’s Van Halen splash (which kicked off in the lead-up to the game but not the broadcast), and the Bud Bowl. Those were the days. Three decades later, we still have big beer—and big tech, and big pharma. AdWeek has declared this year’s Bud Light Peyton Manning spot “too bro,” asking of Post Malone, who also stars in it, “are you okay?” The drug gods shelled out for recognizable faces: Novartis had former NFL heavies; Ro (a telehealth company that sells GLP-1s) had Serena Wiliams; Boehringer Ingelheim booked Octavia Spencer and Sofia Vergara; and Novo Nordisk hired a murderer’s row of comedians, including Ana Gasteyer and Kenan Thompson. Big tech did less with more: I …
