NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell just addressed queries this week about Puerto Rican celeb Bad Bunny's upcoming performance at the Super Bowl LX halftime show.
The news comes after Bad Bunny used his Grammy Awards acceptance speech to slam US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. His ICE-out remarks, in which he was seen speaking against aggressive immigration enforcement, didn't go unnoticed by many.

Goodell mentioned how the league chose Bad Bunny because he's one of the top artists in the world and understands how the platform is meant to unite people instead of being used for divisive political statements.

Goodell also slammed the media for highlighting the matter in a manner that seemed like the Super Bowl was more about Bad Bunny and ICE, but that was not true.
