Hilaria Baldwin defends Bad Bunny following his selection as the 2026 Super Bowl halftime performer. The 41-year-old spouse of Alec Baldwin, who recently exited Dancing with the Stars, praised Bad Bunny’s appointment at the 2025 Gurus Awards, held at the Cicada Club.
In an interview with Mirror US, Hilaria expressed admiration for Bad Bunny, emphasizing that criticism often accompanies success and authenticity. She advocated for embracing those who push boundaries and applauded Bad Bunny as a representative of many. Hilaria, a devoted Bad Bunny fan, eagerly anticipates his performance, along with her children.
Amidst controversy surrounding Bad Bunny’s selection, conservative figures and MAGA supporters have expressed anger and called for NFL boycotts. Turning Point USA is planning an alternative “all-American” halftime show. Hilaria’s positive comments about Bad Bunny follow her elimination from DWTS with partner Gleb Savchenko after a Disney-themed performance.
Despite earning praise from judges for their Quickstep routine, Hilaria and Gleb were voted off the show. Reports suggested Hilaria was emotional and felt sabotaged by her elimination. Dancing with the Stars continues to air on Disney+ and Hulu.
