He "plans to don a dress during his 2026 Super Bowl halftime show to honor Puerto Rican queer icons and generations of drag, resistance and cultural rebellion."

Good Bunny.

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 124 points 3 weeks ago

It doesn’t matter if I like Bad Bunny. Simply the idea that anyone of such stature in pop culture today can upset half a nation, doing something so harmless, brings me joy. This is not about you Red Hat Cult idiots.

I hope it's a skirt, or some form of "technically not a dress" that only computer chair experts woud argue about.

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 45 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)

Is this the state of the press now? All this shit going on and people are arguing about a fucking dress again

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 87 points 3 weeks ago

The dress is resistance. Joy is resistance. Yes all this shit is awful and happening but if we're not also doing things to support others and bring up people who are being marginalized and scapegoated, then the oppressors are winning.

I agree it's fucking stupid to fight about it, and yes, it's a distraction, but that doesn't take away from the real pain that people are feeling that is caused by these distraction tactics.

Two things can co-exist, and everything is related.

Is this the state of the press now?

No? What gave you that impression? The only semi-serious press I see about this is from the sports column of USA Today. Everything else – what little there is – is tabloid trash like The Daily Beast or the Daily Mail (don't construe this as me putting those on the same level; a tide pool and an abyssal trench are both in the ocean).

Just because something on Twitter says "BREAKING" doesn't mean it's receiving actual coverage. "The press" isn't a monolith.

distraction keeps us from fighting back.

I might actually watch the halftime show now just to watch people lose their shit.

[–] dustyData@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Just remember that Green day is the Opening ceremony show. Bad bunny is the halftime show. A ton of people are confused about this detail.

[–] PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Queer dude here who wears skirts in the summer time. Fully agree. Not a big fan of his music, not my style. But he can rock a fucking gown my god.

It's so heartwarming that this show of solidarity and support is boiled down to: "Making ~~the libs~~ MAGA cry"

[–] FreddiesLantern@leminal.space 22 points 3 weeks ago

Oh please let him kick the first ball 🙏

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Is that the dress? He serves in it! Slays? Sorry I'm not sure of the right lingo on this one.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 19 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

So football is woke now? I though it's just a way for rich people to monetize giving poor people brain injuries while promoting nationalism. Amazing what good PR can do.

Based on the Republicans I know, they will just hit "mute" and go in the kitchen for the halftime show. Their wives might watch parts of it and shake their heads before yelling "There's a whole thing of ranch dip in the fridge, and I can microwave some Velveeta if you want nachos."

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago

You think they're going to pass up on an opportunity to bitch and whine and pearl clutch about something completely inconsequential???

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 38 points 3 weeks ago (9 children)

Puerto Rican rapper. Repugs had a collective aneurysm when he was announced for the half time show because oh no a latino

This is fake news though. He doesn't have plans for a dress apparently.

Who ?

I’m getting downvoted, but I meant this seriously. I don’t know who this person is

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 16 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

He's a rapper/singer from Puerto Rico. I believe he's pretty popular among the youts.

Crashing out is a term for someone losing their minds, typically over some inconsequential shit.

I've never watched super bowl at all let alone halftime show. Are there usually easily accessible recordings afterwards?

I rarely ever care to watch the Superbowl and i have little to no interest in Bad Bunyy. But this year I'm definitely tuning in. This should be one for the ages.
