Summary
- Human performers dressed as bushes were used in Bad Bunny's halftime show.
- Performers navigated challenges like heavy costumes and limited visibility.
- The halftime show created a sense of connection and pride for participants.
Bad Bunny's recent Super Bowl halftime performance captivated audiences, notably for its unique use of human performers dressed as large bushes. This innovative approach addressed Levi's Stadium's real grass field, which limits the use of carts for stage elements. Nick Garcia, a Santa Clara native, shared his experience as one of the approximately 400 'bush people.'
Garcia described the journey from auditioning to the show's electrifying moments. Rehearsals involved adjusting to 35- to 40-pound costumes and understanding precise staging. On game day, the performers navigated tunnels and field positioning with practiced ease, despite the immense energy of the Super Bowl crowd. Garcia found himself in a front-row position for a key moment of Bad Bunny's performance.
The performers adapted to the show's dynamic choreography, balancing the urge to dance with the need for stillness. Garcia recounted seeing surprise guests like Lady Gaga and witnessing the powerful display of international flags. He emphasized how Bad Bunny's inclusion of various nationalities fostered a profound sense of unity and pride among the diverse cast members.
