Super Bowl, Bad Bunny: ‘Excited for the halftime show’

Rome, 30 September (LaPresse) – “It’s as if I’ve been keeping this secret for a long time, it was liberating. I felt good, really good. As I said, you know, I was so excited… just like the first time I showed the video to a friend of mine and saw his reaction: he was thrilled. I’m really excited, but what makes me even happier is that it’s not just for me, but for everyone.‘ So said rapper Bad Bunny, speaking to Zane Lowe and Ebro Darden of Apple Music after the announcement of his performance in the halftime show of the upcoming Super Bowl final. ’I’m excited for my friends, my family. For Puerto Rico, for the entire Latin community around the world,‘ he added. ’I’m proud of my culture. I’m excited for everything, not just for myself. You know what I mean. It’s a beautiful feeling: the beach where we recorded is in my hometown. So for us, it’s something really special.‘ The artist explained that he has not ’yet decided exactly what I’m going to do in the show. But I know it will be something special.‘ Keeping the secret, he confessed, was not a problem: ’I don’t want to play the cool guy, but we’re used to these things,‘ he pointed out. ’We like to surprise people. We always keep everything confidential, secret. Doing our best. Obviously, the NFL, Apple Music and Roc Nation wanted it to stay that way too.‘ When he got the call from Jay-Z, he said, ’it was crazy because I was in the middle of a workout. I remember doing like a hundred pull-ups right after the call. I didn’t need a pre-workout or anything. It was a special moment. Really special.‘ During the show, he assured, ’I’m going to enjoy it. I’m going to live in the moment. I’m going to bring our music, our culture. I’m going to go on stage to have fun and entertain.”
