Melvin then explained that there were ‘a lot of folks who have not been wild about the idea’, to which Lopez hit back at the critics.
‘But why? I don’t understand that. He’s one of the top artists in the world right now, probably the top.’
Lopez, who has Puerto Rican heritage like Bad Bunny, added that his music ‘transcends language’, and that she was ‘so excited’ for his performance.
‘I’m so excited for him. I was excited when he performed with us at the Super Bowl [in 2020, alongside J. Balvin and Shakira] and I’m excited to see what he does. He puts on a great show. He’s an amazing entertainer.’

‘Especially all of the Latinos and Latinas in the world here in the United States who have worked to open doors,’ he said.
‘It’s more than a win for myself, it’s a win for all of us. Our footprints and our contribution in this country, no one will ever be able to take that away or erase it.’
