DANICA PATRICK let rip on social media after Bad Bunny was announced as the Super Bowl’s half-time performer.
The pop star was picked to dance to his tracks at next year’s event despite reports suggesting Taylor Swift was the NFL’s preferred choice.

Bad Bunny had previously refused to perform in the US to protest President Donald Trump and his efforts to deport illegal aliens.
But the Puerto Rican pop ace jumped at the chance to take the Super Bowl gig, which takes place at the Levi’s Stadium in San Francisco in February.
Bad Bunny is now set to perform in Spanish despite the official language of the US being English.
And racing car legend Patrick has now taken aim at the decision to hire him for the half-time show.
The IndyCar and NASCAR icon has been dubbed the “world’s sexiest racing driver.”
And Patrick is a regular at major events including the Burning Man festival in Nevada.
Responding to news of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance, she took to social media with a scathing take-down of the NFL’s decision.
Patrick said: “Oh fun. No songs in English should not be allowed at one of America’s highest rated television events of the year… not just for sports.”
But Bad Bunny appears determined to push on with his performance in Spanish.
He said: “What I’m feeling goes beyond myself.
“It’s for those who came before me and ran countless yards so I could come in and score a touchdown.
“This is for my people, my culture and our history.”
