Bad Bunny once again broke boundaries at Super Bowl LX with a halftime show that not only made history for its artistic proposal but also for an unexpected detail that is now making headlines worldwide: the Latin wedding seen on stage was not a performance, but a real and legal marriage.

The moment occurred in the central part of the Halftime Show, right after the segment set in the iconic "little house" and before Lady Gaga's star entrance. What seemed to be a symbolic representation of love and Latin culture turned out to be an authentic connection, celebrated live in front of millions of viewers.

According to information revealed by journalist Rohan Nadkarni of NBC News, a source close to the production confirmed that the couple officially got married during the show. Shortly after, specialized media outlets such as ESPN and MLF Football corroborated the truth of the event. Although the names and nationalities of the newlyweds have not been disclosed, it has been reported that both had invited the Puerto Rican artist to their wedding months ago. Bad Bunny decided to return the favor by including them in his historic performance.

The link was not merely a theatrical device to enhance the Latin aesthetic of the show. The ceremony was genuine and aligned with the message that concluded the event at Levi’s Stadium: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” A phrase that took on new meaning knowing that two people officially joined their lives in the midst of the most-watched sporting event on the planet.

The Halftime Show also featured prominent figures such as Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, Jessica Alba, and Pedro Pascal, who were part of a performance rich in cultural and social references. Among these, a particularly notable moment was the appearance of a child who received a Grammy from Bad Bunny himself, a gesture seen as a reference to the case of Liam Conejo Ramos, a five-year-old Ecuadorian boy who was recently detained by ICE and released following a judicial order.

With this performance, Bad Bunny not only celebrated music and Latin identity, but also reaffirmed his ability to turn mass entertainment into a space for messaging, symbolism, and, this time, real love.
