Devin Booker made it very clear that he didn’t watch Kendall Jenner‘s ex Bad Bunny‘s Super Bowl halftime show.
Booker, 29, who previously dated Jenner, was asked about Bad Bunny’s performance after the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday, February 15. The Phoenix Suns player went on to correct a reporter who asked “for the fans of Puerto Rico” how it “felt to be a part of” Bad Bunny’s milestone.
“I’m Mexican,” Booker noted. “I didn’t watch, to be completely honest.”
Super Bowl LX went down in history as Bad Bunny, 31, performed 11 songs — only in Spanish — during the Super Bowl on February 8. During the halftime show, Bad Bunny focused on celebrating Puerto Rican culture, which sparked backlash among some conservatives.
Bad Bunny did receive support from his ex Jenner, 30, who was spotted cheering him on from the stands. Before her romance with Bad Bunny, Jenner dated Booker off and on from 2020 to 2022. Following their 2022 split, the pair reconciled several other times before officially calling it quits last year.
“They have been off and on for years now and have called it quits recently,” an insider told Us in June 2025. “It always comes down to them both being busy, navigating schedules and just not being on the same page. They have communication issues.”
Jenner started dating Bad Bunny in 2023 during one of her breaks from Booker. They broke up later that year but briefly got back together before parting ways in 2024.
Amid Jenner’s off and on romance with Bad Bunny, the musician appeared to take aim at Booker in his 2023 track “Coco Chanel.” He rapped that the “sun in Puerto Rico is hotter than in Phoenix” and “she knows it.”
In a now-deleted Instagram comment, Booker responded, “He worried about another MAN again.”
While Bad Bunny caught shade from Booker about his Super Bowl performance, he received praise from a multitude of celebrities — including Marc Anthony.
“It was a proud moment all the way around. Here’s a gentleman who is not only a great friend of mine, but I’ve known him since before he even started in music,” Anthony, 57, told The Hollywood Reporter earlier this month. “Bad Bunny is proud of his culture, proud of everything that we as Puerto Ricans offer as a people.”
Lady Gaga, meanwhile, thanked Bad Bunny for including her in his special moment. (Pedro Pascal, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Karol G, Young Miko and Cardi B were some of the other celebrities who made cameos during Bad Bunny’s performance.)
“Thank you Benito for including me in this powerful, important, and meaningful performance,” Gaga, 39, wrote via Instagram. “I am so humbled to be a part of this moment.”
The singer continued: “It’s all the more special because it was with you and your beautiful heart and music. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ All my love to Benito, Ricky [Martin] and the whole cast.”
