Good Bunny

Let's dance our asses off ...

Hello, hungry people.

Want to get happy in a hurry?

Watch this.

It’s a teaser for the Super Bowl LX halftime show featuring Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, aka Bad Bunny.

And if it’s an accurate glimpse of what to expect during this evening’s performance, then I can certainly understand all the outrage directed at the NFL for selecting the Puerto Rican superstar as its headliner.

Because it represents everything the MAGA/Turning Point/Trumpian crowd abhors, those dreaded words — diversity, equality, inclusion. Folks of every color, persuasion and ethnicity cutting loose and having a good time.

Boy, we can all use some of that, can’t we?

The teaser video is so joyful and uplifting that it makes me want to dance. So much so that after watching it a half dozen times I even visited a couple of websites that offered to teach me some reggaeton-salsa-meringue steps so I could get in the Bad Bunny groove.

Let’s just say that 75-year-old white men lacking a sense of rhythm can’t really pull it off. We wind up looking like this guy. If we’re lucky.

Most of the ruckus over this year’s halftime show is that it promises to be all in Spanish, which just happens to be the first language of nearly 50 million U.S. citizens. Like it really matters. Hell, I can’t understand the lyrics of most of the songs I hear in English.

At a news conference the other day, Bad Bunny said "don’t worry about understanding all the words. Just dance. Dance from the heart.”

So, yeah, I’ll be dancing tonight, dancing with abandon, dancing with hope and joy and the promise of less divisive days ahead.

Be thankful you don’t have to watch me …
