Bad Bunny makes huge social media move after Super Bowl halftime show

He’s keeping fans guessing about his next move

Bad Bunny’s social media looks a bit strange for a man who just performed one of the biggest shows of his life.

His Super Bowl performance attracted all manner of praise and a couple of criticisms from certain individuals, as he kept the crowds entertained halfway through the game between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots.

However, when all was done and dusted, the Puerto Rican singer with over 50 million Instagram followers appears to have cleared out all the content on his profile.

He’s still one of the most followed accounts on the site, but at the time of writing, his account is bereft of a profile picture or any posts for people to look at.

If you do venture there then the link to his work is still functioning, but that’s pretty much it so his next move is something of a mystery.

51 million followers and nothing to see, what’s he up to?
Then again, what he’s got planned next is for him to know and us to find out, so perhaps after staying up for the Super Bowl it’s time to take a trip to the land of nod and let Bad Bunny, real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, make his next announcement in his own time.

His halftime show at the Super Bowl was packed with a multitude of memorable moments, including appearances from Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, a cameo from Pedro Pascal and him holding up a ball with the message ‘Together We Are America’.

He also gave a Grammy award to a young boy who plenty mistook for Liam Conejo Ramos, the five-year-old with the Spider-Man backpack who was detained by ICE along with his father.

The boy he handed the Grammy to was actually child actor Lincoln Fox, who posted on social media how it was his ‘truest honour’ to be part of the performance.

With some viewers realising their mistake, they then suggested that the boy was supposed to represent Liam, whose release from ICE custody was recently ordered by a judge.

His fans will be guessing about his next move now
Something else that happened during his Super Bowl show was a couple appearing to get married.

They say looks can be deceiving, but in this case those people were actually getting married as a representative for Bad Bunny told Variety it was all legit.

NBC News journalist Rohan Nadkarni said the couple had invited Bad Bunny to their wedding and he’d countered with an offer for them to come to his Super Bowl show.

The Puerto Rican singer didn’t get paid for his Super Bowl appearance, but the organisers did pick up the cost of putting on his show and it’s customary for the halftime show headliner not to get a fee.

Instead, they’re meant to make their money off the financial boost they get from being seen by millions of people.

They ran into problems right from the start

Turning Point USA, the right-wing American organisation founded by the late Charlie Kirk, got millions of people watching its alternate Super Bowl halftime show.

Bad Bunny was booked to play the actual halftime show and got a hugely positive reaction from the crowd, though US President Donald Trump whinged that he didn’t like it.

Indeed, for an event that has been touted as something a deeply divided America can at least come together on, there was a divisive element in the halftime show in the form of an alternate version.

Despite admitting they couldn’t stream it because of licensing issues, Turning Point USA was still able to show its event on YouTube which it dubbed the ‘All-American Halftime Show’.

Kid Rock was the headline act, while it also had country music singers Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice and Gabby Barrett performing, and managed to get about five million people watching live.

In the run-up to the Super Bowl, Turning Point people described their alternate show as a celebration of ‘faith, family, and freedom’.

However, while they managed to get a few million people watching their show, the viewing figures are likely to be dwarfed by the number of people who tuned in to watch the genuine article.

USA Today reports it’ll take some time to work out how many million people watched the Super Bowl but it estimated that this year’s viewing figures were likely to be around 125 million.

Last year’s audience of 127.7 million was the largest ever TV audience for the Super Bowl, with the number of folks tuning in from the sofa swelling significantly in the past few years.

In the past five years, the audience for the game has grown by over 25 million, so interest in the Super Bowl has been rising for some time now.

As for what Bad Bunny got up to during his halftime show, he was joined by famous faces such as Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin and Pedro Pascal.

A couple also appeared to get married during his performance, with a representative telling Variety that the ceremony wasn’t just for show and that it was actually two people having an actual wedding.

The singer also held up a ball which said ‘Together We Are America’ on it, while he also shared the message ‘the only thing more powerful than hate is love’ to the stadium as he performed
