Bad Bunny’s halftime performance at Super Bowl LX was one of the most talked about moments of the NFL’s spectacle, but a boy in one part of the entertainer’s act Sunday night has fueled internet speculation about who he is. 

Who was the boy in the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show?

The boy who appeared in Bad Bunny’s halftime show was Lincoln Fox, a 5-year-old actor, according to his official Instagram account

A publicist for Bad Bunny told NPR Music that the little boy on stage was not Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old boy who was detained along with his father by ICE officers in Minnesota on Jan. 21. 

Ramos and his father returned to Minnesota on Feb. 1 after a judge ordered their release from an immigrant detention center in Texas.

NPR reported that a representative for the Conejo Ramos family also confirmed to Minnesota Public Radio that it was not the young boy in the halftime show. The New York Times and Hollywood Reporter also confirmed the report. 

A sequence in the halftime performance featured a young boy sitting on a couch with his family watching the moment Bad Bunny won a Grammy a week earlier, and showed Bad Bunny handing his Grammy Award over to a young boy, who held it with a smile on his face. This led many users online to assume the boy was Ramos.
