Everything You Need to Know About Sunday's Super Bowl Halftime Show

Bad Bunny will not receive direct NFL payment for the Super Bowl halftime show but is expected to gain significant streaming revenue, with artists seeing up to 430% streaming increases.

  • Bad Bunny will headline the Super Bowl LX halftime show, a role described as a big-time payday, according to coverage of the event.
  • The NFL told Forbes in 2016 it does not pay the artists, while Cosmopolitan described the 13-minute set as a free concert and commercial for the headliner.
  • Sponsors such as Apple Music partner with the NFL to underwrite production, covering stage, outfits and production costs for the halftime show.
  • Kendrick Lamar's post-halftime streaming jump exemplifies the boost performers receive, with a 430 percent increase in Spotify streams last year, Spotify's Monica Herrera Damashek said this surge raises artist revenue.
  • Uncertainty over sponsor payments leaves actual artist pay unresolved, as it is unclear if sponsors pay performers directly, so Bad Bunny could still receive payment from potential deals.
