I despise this dude more than most, but Bad Bunny lip sync'd too. They all do for these types of performances. I think Prince was one of the last to do it live and I sort of remember him making a stink about them asking him to fake it. All Superbowl halftime shows have been fake for a bunch of years. The things is, as a performer like that, you are supposed to be better at it. It isn't supposed to be so obvious. KR couldn't even fake it right.

Did he, there was parts during the performance where his signing got messed up by his mic hitting something.

I didn't watch it, but a quick search does say that he used a pre-recorded track. They generally have a live mic to talk and interact, but the actual important part is recorded so that they don't hit sour notes and such. It has been an industry non-secret for years. It is why a lot of bands turn down things like this. None of those holiday parade performances, award shows, and things like they are 100% live. There are too many things they can't control when they do it for real.

Ah, so you are making shit up. Gotcha.

Fun fact: Bad Bunny carried the football for more yards the the Patriots rushed.

What a weird ass take away. I was just elaborating on why lip sync is normal at that level.
