The singer shared a photo with the Puerto Rican star to congratulate him on this new milestone in his career.
“Now it’s your turn! Bori gang let’s go,” wrote the “Diva of the Bronx” on her social media.

His upcoming performance at the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show is set to be a milestone for his career and for Latin representation in global music.

Remembering the 2020 Super Bowl
Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, Bad Bunny’s real name, already had a Super Bowl moment.
Back in 2020, Jennifer Lopez and Shakira headlined the halftime show in Miami.
During that performance, Bad Bunny joined Shakira for I Like It and later performed Callaíta.
That night marked his first appearance on the Super Bowl stage—an experience that set the stage for him to return as the headliner in 2026, according to El Heraldo de México.
