As Super Bowl LX approaches, attention is turning toward one of the night’s most anticipated moments: Bad Bunny’s Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show. With just over 24 hours to go before kickoff on February 8 at Levi’s Stadium, the Puerto Rican superstar has yet to confirm whether any special guests will join him onstage. That silence has only fueled speculation.
In recent interviews, Bad Bunny has described the performance as “a huge party” and hinted at “a lot of guests,” without offering names or details. The secrecy aligns with long-standing Super Bowl tradition, where surprise appearances often become defining moments. Still, as rehearsals continue and fans scour every clue, a shortlist of likely collaborators has emerged.
Cardi B
Cardi B sits at the top of most predictions. Their 2018 smash “I Like It” remains one of the most successful crossover records of the streaming era, certified diamond and instantly recognizable to a global audience. There is also a personal dimension. Cardi B is expected to attend the game in support of her partner, New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs. A joint performance would also create symmetry. Bad Bunny famously joined Shakira and Jennifer Lopez’s halftime show in 2020, performing “I Like It” without the original collaborators. Now, it could be the perfect occasion to perform the song with them.

Jhayco
Another strong contender is Jhayco, formerly known as Jhay Cortez. Few artists have been as closely linked to Bad Bunny’s catalog. Their collaboration “DÁKITI” became one of the most streamed Latin songs of all time, while tracks like “Tarot” and “No Me Conoce” helped define a generation of reggaeton’s global expansion. Their onstage chemistry is proven, and a shared appearance would be musically seamless.

Young Miko
Young Miko represents a different angle. As one of the most prominent breakout stars from Puerto Rico’s current wave, her inclusion would reflect Bad Bunny’s stated goal of spotlighting his culture. She recently joined him during his “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí” residency in San Juan in 2025, performing “FINA.” Her presence would signal continuity between island talent and the global stage.
⸻
Ricky Martin and Marc Anthony
Veteran icons are also part of the conversation. Ricky Martin and Marc Anthony symbolize the first wave of Latin crossover success. Bad Bunny has collaborated with both, appearing with Ricky on “Cántalo” and with Marc Anthony on “Está Rico.” Either appearance would add historical weight and underscore the genre’s evolution over decades.
⸻
Travis Scott and The Weeknd
Speculation has also extended beyond Latin music. Travis Scott and The Weeknd entered the rumor mill after reports that “K-POP” was heard during stadium soundchecks earlier in the week. A joint performance with either artist would highlight Bad Bunny’s reach beyond Spanish-language markets. It would also mark a first live performance of the song by the trio.
⸻
Karol G
Karol G remains another popular prediction. Their shared history dates back to “Ahora Me Llama” in 2017, a song that helped propel both artists toward international recognition. They recently surprised fans by performing the track together during Bad Bunny’s tour stop in Colombia.
⸻
J Balvin
J Balvin’s name also carries weight. After a public rift in 2023, the two reconciled in late 2025, reuniting onstage in Mexico City to perform songs from their collaborative album Oasis. If “I Like It” is part of the setlist, Balvin’s presence would complete the trio and celebrate the partnership that defined reggaeton’s late-2010s boom.
⸻
Becky G
Finally, Becky G cannot be ruled out. She was instrumental early in Bad Bunny’s career, featuring him on her 2017 hit “Mayores.” A surprise appearance would serve as a nod to his beginnings and the relationships that shaped his rise.
