Height Requirement To Be Part Of Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show Baffles Fans

Applicants hoping to be part of Bad Bunny's halftime show at Super Bowl LX were stunned after learning there's a height requirement.

Bad Bunny fans were already excited to hear that he would be performing the halftime show at the 2026 Super Bowl, but they were even more excited when his team put out a call for volunteers to be a part of the show.

Fans everywhere eagerly signed up, some going so far as to make tentative travel plans if they were accepted for one of the volunteer slots.


But then a follow-up email was sent to the volunteers, detailing rehearsal times, physical requirements, and other demands.

TikToker @dremonteon signed up, eager to volunteer, only to realize too late that she was disqualified for something she couldn't control: her height.

In the video, she recounted:

"My husband really thought I was kidding when I said I was signing up to volunteer at the halftime show."
"But then I actually got the email. Like, am I the only delusional one who did this?"
"So, then I get the email, and I'm like, 'Wow, it could really happen,' you know?"
"[But the height requirement] is 5'7'', like? I'm 5'5'' on a good day!"
"5'7'' is crazy."

In a text overlay on the video, TikToker @dremonteon called out Bad Bunny:

"Like come on Benito, why you doing us shorties like that??"

Nah cause I’m really that delusional thinking I have the time 💀😂#greenscreen #badbunnyhalftime #SuperBowl #badbunny

Fans everywhere were perplexed by the height requirement, questioning what they'd have to do at the halftime show that would require they be taller than the average person.

Fellow volunteers shared TikToker @dremonteon's disappointment.

Bad Bunny being the performer that he is, we suspect the height requirement is related to choreography or some visual component of the show. Either way, it left a lot of fans disappointed to come so close only to be disqualified because of something they can't change about themselves.

They'll just have to watch the halftime show to figure out why.

Jeff Bezos Just Claimed That Trump Is 'More Mature' In His Second Term—And Critics Can't Even

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos sent heads spinning after claiming during a CNBC interview that President Donald Trump is a "more mature, more disciplined version of himself than he was in his first term."

Bezos, discussing a man who has attacked voting rights multiple times, previously suggested he might try to stay in office indefinitely, and continued to make erratic (and ironic) statements about presidential candidates needing cognitive exams, told anchor Andrew Ross Sorkin that Trump is much more mellow and calmer than he was during the first Trump administration.

That's what happened during Glendale Community College's commencement ceremony on Friday at Desert Diamond Arena in Arizona, where a "new AI system" reportedly skipped hundreds of students and displayed incorrect names as diplomas were handed out. In one instance, the name Michael D. Gonzales was announced while two women received their diplomas.

People might hope that when they make a new friend, they'll be friends for life. But the truth is, most friends will only be there for a reason or a season, like going to school or working together.

For former High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale, that season was new motherhood, a time when she was eager to meet women who understood the questions she had about babies and raising them, but also preferably women who understood what it was like trying to juggle being a successful businesswoman with being a mom, too.

JD Vance Just Tried To Give His Historical Hot Take On Pope Leo's Name—And He Missed The Point Entirely

Vice President JD Vance made a point that seemed pretty obvious to everyone except him when he, mentioning Pope Leo XIV, gave his take on the historical context around the tenure of Pope Leo XIII, who led the Catholic Church from 1878 until 1903.

Speaking at a White House briefing focused on the possible impact of the pope’s upcoming encyclical on artificial intelligence, Vance highlighted the symbolism behind Robert Francis Prevost, the first U.S.-born leader of the Roman Catholic Church, choosing the name Leo XIV.
