A lot of people watching the Super Bowl got the wrong end of the stick about a sweet moment Bad Bunny shared with a little boy during his halftime show.
The musician, dubbed the 'King of Latin Trap', put on a memorable performance at Levi's Stadium in California on Sunday while the NFL stars took a brief interlude from the pitch.
Between surprise appearances from Lady Gaga and Pedro Pascal, a real-life wedding unfolding and Bad Bunny sneaking a message onto one of his props, the gig has left sports fans with plenty to talk about.
Bad Bunny also shared a poignant moment with a young lad during his set, which saw him sweetly hand the little boy the Grammy he bagged just over a week ago.

The rapper made history when he scooped the gong for Album of the Year, as he's the first artist to win it for a release sung entirely in Spanish.
It was all thanks to his sixth album, DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, and his glory at the Grammys came just days before he took to the stage during the clash between the Patriots and the Seahawks.
Bad Bunny, real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, was among the celebrities who condemned the actions of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents during their acceptance speeches.
So, when people clocked that the little lad who featured in his halftime show somewhat resembled the five-year-old boy who was detained by ICE in January, they presumed it was actually schoolboy Liam Conejo Ramos.
A host of social media users took to X to discuss what they described as 'such a beautiful moment' on screen and this narrative quickly gained a lot of traction.
However, it was not actually Ramos who joined in the performance.
Child actor Lincoln Fox is the one who was handed the Grammy and he shared an Instagram post saying he would 'remember this day forever', while saying that being a part of the show was his 'truest honour'.
After realising their mistake, some people suggested the inclusion of Fox was 'meant to be symbolic of [Ramos]' - however, others reckoned that Bad Bunny was in fact making a nod to his younger self.
Fox added hashtags such as '#youngbadbunny' and '#littlebadbunny' in the caption of his post, seemingly confirming the theory that he was supposed to be a baby Bad Bunny.
Others said they couldn't believe people had got Ramos and Fox mixed up in the first place.
One person wrote: "I saw way too many posts saying they were the same kid and I was like do y'all not see the different faces?!"
Another added: "I don’t understand how people can’t see it’s two different children."
