Bad Bunny Halftime Show Extra Spills On His Time Inside The Grass At Super Bowl

LOADINGERROR LOADINGPuerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny left it all on the field during Sunday’s Super Bowl halftime show, but hundreds of extras concealed in plant-like costumes made their own mark during his spirited performance.At one point during the exuberant set at Levi’s Stadium – a dynamic tribute to the culture of his native land – the Grammy-winning singer was surrounded by bunches of dancing grass.One of the people who donned the swishy green garment was content creator Andrew Athias.Advertisement In a social media post following the halftime show, Athias wrote: “FINALLY let the cat out of the bag....or the grass.” He also revealed that he had flown from Philadelphia to Santa Clara, Calif., for the gig that had internet users talking on Sunday night.Athias, a self-described “big” fan of Benito’s music, told Insider that he was paid $18.70/hour for the job, and the company that hired him sought people who met certain height and athletic requirements.
