Amid the National Football League (NFL) championship match between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots held at the Levi’s Stadium in California on Sunday night, the Puerto Rican rapper headlined the Halftime Show, kicking off the spectacle with his song Tití Me Preguntó.
Bad Bunny – real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio – went on to wow the crowd with other hits, such as DtMF and EoO, but he surprised fans by revealing Gaga and Martin as two of the guest artists.
Gaga performed a Latin-inspired version of her Bruno Mars collaboration, Die with a Smile, with the King of Latin Trap even joining her onstage to perform some dance moves.
“It was my absolute honor to be a part of Benito’s halftime show,” she wrote on Instagram shortly after the event wrapped up. “Thank you Benito for inviting me and thank you to the entire cast for welcoming me onto your stage. I wouldn’t miss it for the world.”
Previously, Lady Gaga headlined the 2017 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
Elsewhere in the concert, Ricky Martin performed a version of Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii, a song from Bad Bunny’s sixth studio album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos.
Afterwards, he wrote on X in Spanish, “I need several hours to process the tsunami of emotions I’m feeling. Thank you @sanbenito, thank you @ladygaga thank you @NFL, @RocNation and @AppleMusic.”
The Livin’ la Vida Loca singer also posted a snap of the trio posing in front of a trailer backstage and a video clip of him and Bunny exchanging a hug.
Other celebrities to make appearances during the show included Cardi B, Karol G, Jessica Alba, Pedro Pascal, and Young Miko.
Bad Bunny was the first Latino solo artist to headline the Halftime Show, as well as the first to perform almost entirely in Spanish.
The Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots by 29 – 13 during the match.
