Lewis Hamilton speaks out after Super Bowl appearance with Kim Kardashian

Lewis Hamilton has issued a social media statement about Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance, which he watched on Sunday (8 February) alongside Kim Kardashian.

Rumours that the Formula One driver, 41, and reality TV star, 45, are dating have been swirling for weeks now, and the weekend's outing has only added fuel to the fire.

Although neither party have confirmed the romance, The Sun reported at the beginning of the month that the celebrity pairing had been on a getaway to the Cotswolds together.

And now, as we say, they were seated next to each other for Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium, Santa Clara, California, where they were spotted smiling and chatting, with fans convinced that this was a 'hard launch' as it's the first time the duo have been seen together since the whispers began.

Hamilton has now posted on Instagram following the reports - but not about his alleged relationship - for now, his attention is firmly on Bad Bunny's 'incredible' performance.

The sports star took to his Instagram Stories yesterday (9 February) to write: "Incredible show, a privilege to have witnessed."

In a second post, he later added: "That was one of THE most important Super Bowl halftime shows in history. In a world and a country led by people whose only goal is to encourage division, we witnessed an artist stand among a diverse group of people, on the same level, with a message of togetherness.

"It gave me goosebumps."

Hamilton gushed: "I have the highest respect for Benito and this show he put on. A show that wasn't about himself, but about the people. I'm truly so inspired. I don't speak Spanish, but his message of unity resonated deeply.

"Seeing the Grenada flag made me feel instantly connected. My family is from there. The Caribbean is home. Like he said, the only thing more powerful than hate is love."

For those who missed it, Bad Bunny's performance paid homage to Puerto Rican culture in a number of ways, celebrated diversity, and called for unity with the US.

Although there were no explicit words about politics, the rapper certainly had a clear message to give amid the ongoing political tensions in America as President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown continues.

During the show, Bad Bunny said: "God bless America", before going 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, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, held a football at the end of the segment, which read in English: "Together, We Are America."

Last year, when he returned to the White House, President Trump ordered a 'complete restoration of America, before instructing ICE (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) officials to remove 'illegal aliens' from the country.

Fans of Bad Bunny will know that he has strongly criticised ICE and called out the government agency during his Grammys acceptance speech, and that he refused to tour the US last year over fears that fans would be targeted.
