It's not gay, it's brown. Or is Bad Bunny also gay? I have no idea, and I don't care who he loves. I'm tuning in for the music and the dancing. I'm not a fan, but I'm sure it'll be a good show.

    Although the jury is still out as to whether Bad Bunny is gay or not, he has announced that he is going to perform the halftime show wearing a dress, in solidarity with Puerto Rico‘s rich history of drag queens.

    So, yeah. That.

    Drag used to be a lot more common in the US.

    Huh. I had no idea. Bet he kills it.

    Nothing gay about wearing a dress. My brother wore a dress once. (Our sister dared him.) It's just a garment. If you're Scottish, you might wear a kilt, as a male, in 2026, and that's functionally the same kind of thing. And honestly the dress/skirt (or kilt) style garment makes more sense for a guy. Pants make more sense for a gal. But fashion is weird.

    Not trying to disagree or anything, just... eh, I'm gonna enjoy it regardless.

    Isn't noted band with an openly bisexual lead singer Green Day performing as the opening act?

    Actually a few of the acts are openly queer, or explicitly queer-friendly? Or, like Bad Bunny, planning to perform in a dress to pay homage to drag. So yeah, it's pretty gay (affectionate)
