Bad Bunny Day Declared by California Governor
California Governor Gavin Newsom announced Sunday as “Bad Bunny Day” to celebrate the Puerto Rican artist’s upcoming halftime performance during the Super Bowl in the Bay Area.
In a playful nod to former President Donald Trump’s distinctive posting style, Newsom’s message emphasized the singer’s talent and popularity, hinting at the excitement surrounding the event.
In his post, Newsom expressed his admiration for the Spanish language, calling it beautiful and noting its widespread use among many people in California and beyond.
“I also have a great appreciation for Bad Bunny, a remarkable artist. That’s why I’m declaring tomorrow ‘Bad Bunny Day’ in California as he takes the stage,” he added, clearly excited about the performance.
Newsom’s message included a cheeky observation about media figures being “obsessed” with both him and Bad Bunny. He remarked that the artist is almost as “hot” as he is—a bold statement, but one meant to convey his admiration.
This declaration comes amidst some criticism from conservatives regarding the NFL’s choice of performers for its halftime show. Bad Bunny, addressing these sentiments, recently stated that he would not perform in English, further expressing his commitment to his roots.
