Jalen Hurts is full of surprises as he picks his dream Super Bowl Halftime performer. We’re only a few days removed from the Super Bowl, with Bad Bunny ready to take center stage for his Halftime show performance. However, Hurts wishes for one specific rap artist to take the stage next.
The Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback recently did a brief, candid interview where he was asked about his dream Halftime show performer. Hurts would name hip hop artist, NBA Youngboy, as someone he’d love to see perform on the big day.
Hurts justified his claim by stating that NBA Youngboy would be someone who would ‘turn it up for sure.’ The ‘Make No Sense’ rapper is known for his eccentric performances and has one of the most loyal fanbases out of any other rapper. Youngboy can now add Hurts to the list of notable fans.

Other Players Named Their Choices For The Super Bowl Halftime Show
Jalen Hurts might’ve stunned fans with his picking NBA Youngboy to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show. However, you’d be more shocked to hear that he wasn’t the only NFL athlete picking the Louisiana rapper. In fact, there were several more who picked NBA Youngboy as well.
The clip that showcased Jalen Hurts choosing NBA Youngboy as his dream pick for the Halftime show also had other NFL players picking their own. Dallas Cowboys teammates joined Hurts in naming ‘Right Foot Creep’ rapper as their pick to headline the Halftime show.
Fans were stunned to see this pick from their favorite NFL athletes. Some exclaimed that they’re glad Hurts isn’t in charge of choosing the artist to headline at the biggest show of the year. While others asked what the attraction point is that draws athletes to listen to NBA Youngboy, since they don’t understand it themselves.
Bad Bunny Has Big Plans For His Halftime Show Performance
Jalen Hurts might have to settle for Bad Bunny for now, as the Puerto Rican superstar is scheduled to headline the Super Bowl Halftime show. The ‘Dakiti’ rapper is ready to tear the house down for all of his fans who are planning to attend to see his performance.
There have also been reports that Bunny is planning big things for his grand performance. These reports have stated that the show might have a bold ‘queer’ theme alongside a representation of his Latin culture. We’ll have to see how the fans react to what he has in store for them at Super Bowl LX.
