Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Gesture: A Child Actor, Not ICE Protest
9 Feb
Summary
- Bad Bunny handed a trophy to a child actor, not Liam Ramos.
- The gesture was meant to inspire children to dream big.
- Ramos and his father were detained on January 20, 2026.
Bad Bunny's recent Super Bowl performance included a widely discussed moment where he bent over to hand a trophy to a child in the audience. This act sparked speculation that the artist was referencing Liam Ramos, a young individual who had been detained with his father on January 20, 2026, in a Minneapolis suburb. Their detention lasted until February 1, 2026, when a judge ordered their release, leading to significant public outcry.
However, sources close to the situation have confirmed that the child receiving the trophy was not Liam Ramos. Instead, it was child actor Lincoln Fox Ramadan. Bad Bunny's intention behind the gesture was purely inspirational, aiming to show children they could achieve big dreams, such as performing on the Super Bowl stage. There was no political message or commentary on immigration policies, such as ICE, intended with this specific act during his performance.
