Rapper Cardi B is the guest artist most wanted by NFL fans to join Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl LX halftime show, according to a poll conducted by Vegas Insider.
The poll was conducted among more than 3,000 American soccer fans in the United States, and also positioned the Puerto Rican’s collaboration with the singer of Dominican descent ‘I Like It’, as the most desired song for the night in which the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots will face each other.
Cardi B garnered 33% of the votes as the preferred choice to share the stage with Benito Martinez Ocasio, better known as Bad Bunny, followed by Drake with 21%, and Marc Anthony with 14%.
The top 5 was completed by Spain’s Enrique Iglesias, with 12.4%, and Puerto Rico’s Daddy Yankee with 11.7%.
Expectations for Bad Bunny’s surprise guests
Other artists included the Mexican-American Becky G, who obtained 11.5% of the votes; the Colombian J Balvin, who accumulated 5.9%; or the Spanish Rosalía, who obtained 3.9% of the votes.
As for the repertoire, the collaboration ‘I Like It’, performed by Bad Bunny, Cardi B and J Balvin, was positioned as the most requested song for the halftime show with 18% of the votes.
This track was followed by several songs from the album ‘Un verano sin ti’ (2022), such as the collaboration with Rauw Alejandro ‘Party’ (6.7%), ‘Moscow Mule’ (6.1%) and ‘Tití Me Preguntó’ (5.4%), as well as ‘Dakiti’, together with Jhay Cortez, included in ‘El último tour del mundo’, with 4.3%.
On Sunday, February 8, Bad Bunny will make history by becoming the first Hispanic solo artist to star in a halftime show at the Super Bowl, the most important U.S. sporting event in which he had already participated in 2020 as a special guest of Shakira and Jennifer Lopez’s show.
The Puerto Rican singer will add this achievement to the one he reached last Sunday, when he became the first artist to win a U.S. Grammy for album of the year with an album entirely in Spanish, for ‘Debí tirar más fotos’.
His performance will take place in a tense political context in the United States, marked by social polarization and the prominence of the immigration and cultural debate motivated by President Donald Trump’s harsh campaign against migrants.
Trump, who had planned to attend, declined to go to the event arguing that he did not want to travel so far from the U.S. capital and that he did not like the artists chosen in reference to the Puerto Rican and the rock band Green Day, who will also participate in the event, reported Agencia EFE.
