Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show, held on February 8, 2026, at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, sparked a cultural conversation, with some arguing it proved the persistence of "woke" culture, while others focused on the advertising battles that unfolded during the game. The Seattle Seahawks won Super Bowl 60, but the real competition, according to multiple sources, was in the advertising arena, where brands spent millions on commercials.
The halftime show, featuring Bad Bunny, prompted the official Democratic Party X account to share an image of the performer in front of the American and Puerto Rican flags, accompanied by the text "All-American halftime with Bad Bunny," according to Vox. This move, however, did not sit well with everyone.
The Super Bowl commercials themselves were a major focus of discussion. Google's Gemini ad was widely praised for its emotional storytelling, proving successful, while Coinbase's ad was criticized for its lack of clarity in communicating its brand and purpose, according to CBS News. AI-related products were a prominent theme in this year's commercials, highlighting the growing influence of technology.
The news surrounding Super Bowl 60 was extensive, with reports covering a wide array of topics, including French financial integration efforts, a US judge's deportation block, and allegations against Prince Andrew, according to multiple sources. Other discussions included AI ethics, health concerns related to sedentary lifestyles, advancements in weather warning systems, and the departure of Fremantle's Director of Global Entertainment.
