Truth About Boy Bad Bunny Handed Grammy to As ICE Theory Circulates Online
The identity of the boy who featured in Bad Bunny's halftime show has been revealed amid claims it was the same child detained by ICE.
Bad Bunny delivered a historic halftime show at Super Bowl LX on Sunday.
He became the first male solo Latin and Spanish-speaking artist to headline NFL's showpiece event.
The Puerto Rican rap star performed his greatest hits, including 'Titi Me Pregunto' and 'BAILE INoLVIDABLE', as well as 'LO QUE LE PASO A HAWAii' with Ricky Martin and 'Die With a Smile' with a fellow superstar in a surprise appearance.

His halftime show was full of energy and surprises as a couple got married, with Bad Bunny serving as a witness.
And during the midway point of his halftime show, Bad Bunny is seen handing one of his Grammy Awards to a young Latino boy after winning Album of the Year last week.
He rubs the boy's head and tells him: "Cree siempre en ti", which translates to 'always believe in yourself'.
Following the exchange, people online began speculating the boy was Liam Conejo Ramos, who was detained with his father by immigration officers during a raid in Minnesota and then taken to a detention center in Texas.
Liam and his father were released last week after being held there for over a week.
Five-year-old Liam became a symbol of the Donald Trump administration and immigration crackdowns in Minnesota.
While Bad Bunny's halftime show contained a political message, the young boy was not Liam.
Who was the young boy in Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show?
The young boy in the halftime show was a child actor.
Lincoln Fox starred in the halftime show and took to social media following Bad Bunny's electric performance.
On Instagram, he said: "l'Il remember this day forever! - it was my truest honor."
The emotional moment between Bad Bunny and Lincoln was intended to symbolise that anyone can pursue their hopes and dreams, according to sources who spoke to ABC.
A representative for Bad Bunny also confirmed that the young boy was a child actor and not Liam.
