As tensions mount ahead of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl 60 halftime performance, indie wrestling star La Leona is proudly showing her support.
On February 8, 2026—just hours before the global music icon takes the stage at Levi’s Stadium—La Leona took to Instagram to send a message of pride and solidarity. She posted a photo of herself in an orange bikini standing beside a painted Puerto Rican flag, with a caption that made her stance clear: “P FK R 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷 Bad Bunny & Puerto Rico today is your day !!!”
The tweet comes in the middle of a political firestorm surrounding Bad Bunny’s halftime show. Following his speech at the 2026 Grammy Awards—where he called out U.S. immigration policies with the line, “ICE out. We’re not savage, we’re not animals, we’re not aliens, we’re humans and we are Americans,”—reports emerged that protest groups were planning mass walkouts during his Super Bowl performance.
Former WWE personality Kayla Braxton responded to the controversy just a day earlier, calling out the racist walkout plans behind the backlash:
“Cool, if you’re walking out… can the rest of us rotate in and enjoy the show? Seats shouldn’t go to waste. We can keep them warm until your racism passes.”
Bad Bunny, who previously appeared at the 2020 Halftime Show with Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, is set to make history as the first Super Bowl Halftime Show headliner to perform primarily in Spanish. During a press conference on February 5, he said his goal is to bring joy and culture to the biggest stage in sports:
“I just want people to have fun… Of course, a lot of my culture. I don’t want to give any spoilers, but it’s going to be fun! I know I said people have four months to learn Spanish, but no, just come ready to dance.”
With the stage set and the world watching, support from figures like La Leona is a reminder that for many, this is more than just a concert—it’s a cultural statement.
