ESPN reporter breaks down in tears on live TV after Bad Bunny Super Bowl performance

An ESPN reporter has gone viral after their emotional reaction to Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance.

The Puerto Rican rapper, 31, took to the stage at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday (8 February), during the final between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots.

Bad Bunny treated viewers to an incredible 13-minute set, which was performed almost entirely in Spanish.

Just one week after becoming first artist to win Album of the Year with a fully Spanish-language album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, at the Grammys earlier this month, the musician performed a medley of his biggest hits, including 'Tití Me Preguntó,' 'MONACO' and 'BAILE INoLVIDABLE'.

During the live broadcast of the show on Sunday, ESPN’s John Sutcluffe became visibly emotional.

Sutcliffe had been tasked with explaining the cultural significance of the halftime show. “It’s the first time I’ve ever cried at a Super Bowl,” he said, as per Sports Illustrated. “To see a Latino, a Puerto Rican, on that stage. It’s hard to explain what this means for our community.

“I am sorry, I am just very emotional right now. This is a historic moment for all of us. I never thought I would see this level of representation today.”

One standout moment during the performance saw the rapper say: "God bless America," before he went on to list nations of Central, South and North America as dancers carried their flags.

Behind them, a billboard message read: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love."

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny, real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, held a football at the end of the segment which read in English: "Together, We Are America."

Another standout sweet moment was when the rapper referenced his Grammy win.

In one segment of the show, a little boy was seen sitting on a sofa with his family, watching an old-fashioned TV which was playing the moment the musician won his Grammy.

The rapper then came over and handed the award to the youngster, who was actually five-year-old actor Lincoln Fox Ramadan.

His set included sugar cane fields to symbolise farmer and field workers and a mini casita where the likes of Karol G, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Alix Earle, Pedro Pascal, and Young Miko got to enjoy the festivities.

Lots of backing dancers were dressed as sugar cane field workers, with pavas - straw hats which are traditionally made from leaves of the Puerto Rican hat palm.

While performing 'Titi Me Preguntó,' the acclaimed musician also walked past a group of dancers who were dressed as customers around a coco frio street vendor cart, which typically sell coconut water on the island.

He also stopped at a makeshift piraguas cart and grabbed a frozen dessert, as well as spotlighting real-life Los Angeles taqueria, Villa's Tacos.

Ricky Martin also made an appearance to sing a verse of 'Lo Que Le Pasó a Hawaii'.
