Bad Bunny Talks About ‘ICE Out’ in His Grammys Speech
Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Show Sparks Immigration Debate
LOS ANGELES – Bad Bunny, the acclaimed reggaetón artist, is set to headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show in February, igniting a debate surrounding immigration issues and leading the Trump Administration to announce the presence of ICE agents at the event.
The controversy began at the Grammy Awards where Bad Bunny won for his album "DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS" in the best música urbana category. During his acceptance speech, he emphasized his stance against ICE, stating, "Before I thank God, I’m going to say ICE out." His powerful statement received a standing ovation from the audience at Crypto.com Arena.
Addressing his Puerto Rican heritage, Bad Bunny asserted, "We’re not savage. We’re not animals. We are not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans." He emphasized the strength of love in combating hatred, encouraging unity in the face of adversity.
This speech coincided with his much-anticipated performance a week later at the Super Bowl. Despite Puerto Rico’s status as an unincorporated U.S. territory and Bad Bunny’s citizenship, former President Donald Trump expressed his disapproval of the artist’s selection for the halftime show. In a January 2026 interview with the New York Post, Trump remarked, "I’m anti-them. I think it’s a terrible choice."
Bad Bunny’s upcoming performance and his bold statements have stirred significant public interest, illustrating the intersection of entertainment and political dialogue as the Super Bowl approaches.
