BASSETERRE – St. Kitts and Nevis grabbed the global spotlight during Bad Bunny’s record-breaking Super Bowl LX halftime performance on February 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium. The national flag waved prominently alongside Caribbean, Latin American, and U.S. flags, reaching 142.3 million viewers – shattering last year’s record of 133.5 million.
Bad Bunny delivered a powerful unity message, declaring in English, “God bless America,” before naming countries across the Americas. He closed with a spiked football stamped “Together, We Are America” and added in Spanish, “We’re still here.” The display flashed: “The Only Thing More Powerful Than Hate Is Love.”
Senior Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, The Rt Hon. Dr. Denzil Llewellyn Douglas, celebrated on social media: “If we can SPREAD LOVE as quickly as WE spread hate and negativity…. What an amazing world we would live in…. And Bad Bunny, brought the same message last night at the superbowl…‘The only thing more Powerful than hate is LOVE’… And of Course our beautiful National Flag was Prominent…. A proud moment for US Kittitians and Nevisians… The Word is LOVE.”
The performance nodded to Puerto Rican culture with scenes of sugar cane plantations, domino players, a wedding, and utility poles during “El Apagón,” highlighting the Latino experience from labor to leisure. Reporter Sandra E. Garcia noted, “He showed the spectrum of the Latino experience… and he sent a message of unity as he expressed his belief in love over everything.”
