Bad Bunny is saying no to short kings on the Super Bowl LX stage. Fans of the 2026 halftime performer are expressing disappointment after discovering there’s a height requirement to be part of the Puerto Rican star’s on‑field performance on Feb. 8. Screenshots of the Field Team applicat ion shared on social media show that participants must be between 5 feet, 7 inches and 6 feet tall. And let’s just say, the internet did not take that news quietly. What are Bad Bunny fans saying about the height requirement? Most fans are reacting with frustration and many are venting on social media. One TikTok user said, “Like come on, Benito, why are you doing us shorties like that??” Another wrote, “Not me romanticizing being in bad bunny’s super bowl halftime show just to be 5’3.” Some fans who do meet the requirement are taking it as a sign. One TikToker said, “I’m 5’7 and honestly tempted — this might be my chance to meet Bad Bunny.” What are the Super Bowl production teams saying about the height requirement? There are two different listings for halftime roles, both with height cutoffs. One is for the Field Team, which involves the on-field assembly and disassembly of the halftime stage and requires applicants to be between 5-foot-7 and 6-feet tall. On the field team application, it says: “This is a paid, temporary position with a critical mission: You’ll be part of the core team responsible for the on-field assembly and disassembly of the halftime show stage.” Backlit Support, the company in charge of hiring for the production, confirmed to USA TODAY in a statement that the “height requirements will be very important for participation on this one and will be verified through the rehearsal process.” However, another listing for Field Cast, described as performers “learning and executing blocking and movement alongside the headlining artist,” also comes with height requirements. That listing specifies a height range of 5-foot-10 to 6-foot-1 with a slender to athletic build and the ability to wear costumes weighing up to 40 pounds, among other prerequisites.
