Jessica Alba had “full body chills and was so emotional” being a part of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.
The Fantastic Four actress and businesswoman, who is Mexican-American, made a cameo as one of the dancers in the Puerto Rican artist’s iconic “La Casita,” alongside Alix Earle, Cardi B, Karol G, Pedro Pascal, Ronald Acuña Jr. and Young Miko.
On Monday, she reflected on the experience, writing on Instagram, “What an honor to be part of such an extraordinary moment in history! La casita – let’s gooooo! Joy you could feel. Pride you could see. A beautiful love letter to Puerto Rico – and to all of America.”
Alba also shared a video, which featured some clips that she filmed while on the Levi’s Stadium field.
“Yesterday was bigger than a performance,” the Sin City actress continued in her post. “It was Dignity. Inclusion. Unity. Representation. And Love. Benito ‘Bad Bunny’ tells stories rooted in his culture, his people, and his truth — and yesterday, those stories were centered on one of the biggest stages in the world. Watching him honor the diversity of our community gave me full body chills and was so emotional. Some of the most meaningful moments don’t need explanation or translation — you just feel them.”
Alba concluded, “For me, yesterday was about joy — fully living inside it. Because when culture is honored instead of erased, when people are seen instead of sidelined, we become one. Above all, as Benito has said, ‘The only thing more powerful than hate is love.’ Love, joy, and unity — this is how we rise.”
Bad Bunny‘s Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show was emotional for many, as he not only brought his culture to the global stage to share with everyone, with a set inspired by his hometown community in Puerto Rico, but he also told a love story throughout his show on football’s biggest night. This all led to his overall message, which was displayed on screens inside Levi’s Stadium at the end: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”
Earle, a content creator who competed on the latest season of Dancing With the Stars, also posted her own video from the “La Casita,” writing on Instagram, “Bad Bunny on top.”
She added in a follow-up post. “@badbunnypr performance was pure love and joy and to experience it in real life was beyond unreal. What a beautiful thing to have so many people from all over come together and celebrate life, family, love, culture, and unity.”
Other guest appearances during Bad Bunny’s halftime show included Lady Gaga singing a Latin-inspired rendition of her and Bruno Mars’ song, “Die With a Smile,” and Ricky Martin performing “LO QUE LE PASÓ A HAWAii.”
The Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots battled it out inside Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, for Super Bowl LX on Sunday, with the Seahawks ultimately taking home the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Check out all the celebrities in attendance here.
