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.

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.

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

White Christmas, released in 1954, for example.
