We don’t have to put 2 bad bitches against each other… they both out in for their cultures and communities. Both important. Both needed. Both a helluva good time.
🚨NEW: Bad Bunny has set the record for the most watched Super Bowl halftime show in history, with over 135 million viewers.
RETWEET to congratulate Bad Bunny on making history!
Bad Bunny walked out in a #64 jersey with “OCASIO” on the back.
Not Bad Bunny.
Not Benito.
His real name.
His family name.
Then he grabbed the mic and said:
“My name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. And if today I’m here at the Super Bowl, it’s because I never, never stopped believing in myself.”
In Spanish.
No translation.
Even the jumbotron was in Spanish.
And I watched the whole thing with a translator on.
Because the message was that important to me.
They said he was “un-American.”
They said nobody would understand him.
They said having him perform was “ridiculous.”
And he SHOWED OUT!
He brought out Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.
He staged a wedding on the field.
He recreated a bodega.
He gave us a whole scene of family and love.
He humanized an entire culture on the world’s biggest stage.
All in his native language.
And he didn’t flinch.
His lyrics were clear messages:
“They want to take the river from me, and the beach too. They want my neighborhood and for my grandma to leave.”
“I should have taken more photos when I had you. Hopefully my loved ones will never move.”
And that last line:
“Ojalá que los míos nunca se muden.”
Hopefully my loved ones will never move.
That’s about families being separated.
Forced to leave.
Displacement.
Yeah, he didn’t chase the mainstream.
He made the mainstream come to him.
He put his family name on his back and told 120 million people exactly who he is.
And I’m here for ALL of it!👏🏽
Kacey Musgraves shares new tweet following Bad Bunny’s #SuperBowl halftime show:
“Well. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done.”
A 17‑year‑old was eating in a McDonald’s parking lot when an officer opened his car door and shot him 4 times. The officer was fired and charged. The teen was left on life support. underwent multiple surgeries, and developed complications like pneumonia.
I think weed smokers sometimes don’t realize just how strong the smell is and how it stinks really bad to non-weed smokers the same way cigarettes smell to weed smokers it’s really about being considerate while you’re in a public setting
“A pastor here is also director of the field office for ICE… so someone teaching people about God is out there overseeing ICE agents. How dare you.”
