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.

Hunter Biden had a question for the White House press corps over their in-the-moment reactions—or lack thereof—to the insults and slurs flung by MAGA Republican President Donald Trump at journalists, mostly women and especially Black women.

Biden appeared on The Jim Acosta Show alongside former CNN White House correspondent Acosta and contributing editor for Mediaite and former White House correspondent for AOL and The Daily Banter Tommy Christopher. The trio discussed the double standards surrounding Trump in both how he behaves and how the press approaches him and covers his words and actions.

Trump Ridiculed After Claiming He's Been President 'Three Times'—And Who Wants To Tell Him?

President Donald Trump had people rolling their eyes after he said in response to a reporter at the NATO summit that he'd been president "three times" and won "three elections."

Trump has been president twice and lost the 2020 general election to then-candidate Joe Biden. Since then, he has continued to push the baseless lie that the election was "stolen" from him. Trump's supporters eventually attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, in a failed bid to overturn the election results.

GOP Senator Dragged Over 'Blatantly Racist' Anti-China Campaign Ad Where She Smashes Fortune Cookies

Tennessee Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn was called out after releasing a campaign ad about cracking down on China by dramatically crumbling fortune cookies, a move that prompted critics to point out that fortune cookies aren't a Chinese invention at all.

In the ad, Blackburn appears seated in what resembles a stereotypical Chinese restaurant, surrounded by takeout boxes and hanging lanterns. Looking directly into the camera, she asks, "How hard am I gonna crack down on China? Well, here's a clue," before crushing several fortune cookies in her hands and letting the crumbs fall onto the table as a narrator begins to speak.
