Bad Bunny was selected to perform the Super Bowl LX halftime show on Sunday, and the choice didn’t exactly sit well with NFL fans during the night.

The three-time Grammy Award winner has emerged as one of the most popular recording artists since he debuted in the mainstream in 2016. But as the Puerto Rican’s popularity has grown, so has his platform. Recently, he used it to express fears about U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE).
