Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has been hit with a major setback as he gears up to perform at the highly anticipated Super Bowl halftime show.

According to PEOPLE, the 31-year-old rapper and singer is facing a $16 million lawsuit from a woman who alleges her voice was used without her consent in two of his songs.

The lawsuit, filed in Puerto Rico on January 5, was brought by Tainaly Y. Serrano Rivera, who claims her voice appears on Solo de Mi from Bad Bunny’s 2018 album X100pre and on EoO from his 2025 album Debí Tirar Más Fotos.

Rivera said the recordings were made in 2018 at the request of the artist’s longtime producer, Roberto Rosado, also known as La Paciencia.

She alleged that she was never informed her voice would be used commercially and did not sign a contract permitting its use.

The audio cited in the lawsuit features Rivera saying, "Mira, puñeta, no me quiten el perrero," which she says translates to, "Listen, damn it, don’t take away my vibe."

The lawsuit seeks $16 million in damages from both Bad Bunny and his record label, Rimas Entertainment, for alleged violations of her privacy and publicity rights.

As a result, both the musician and his label are required to respond to the claims in court in May 2026.

However, this is not the first time Bad Bunny has faced legal trouble.

Nearly three years ago, his ex-girlfriend Carliz de La Cruz Hernández filed a $40 million lawsuit over the alleged unauthorized use of her voice on Pa Ti and Dos Mil 16.

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny will headline the Super Bowl LX halftime show on February 8, 2026.
