Thank you so much for having this conversation! I've been seeking out all the context and perspective I can find about the halftime show. It was such a joyful, powerful production. I don't speak Spanish yet I felt totally moved and wowed by the performance. Hearing about all these layers makes it even more impressive.
This was an exceptionally kind thing you did in acknowledging these women - and by extension the other "unacknowledged" individuals behind the scenes - who made that production possible. Unfortunately, our racist president got nearly as much coverage as Bad Bunny, but that is just the nature of the "media" in this country. You, however, put the spotlight on what really counts, and that was the message: "WE are America!" Thank you.
Thank you for the comments and conversation. Yesterday we watched a gentleman sing and bring many nations together along with America, many people from different backgrounds and countries. I was very impressed and overjoyed by this celebration.Bad Bunny brought the light of hope for America and everyone in different countries, and diversity.
Thank you for highlighting these two wonderful women! I’ve had to honor of working with them and, as you can clearly see here, they are proof that you can consistently deliver excellent work if you lead with your values (from my experience, theirs are empathy, hard work, joy, and clear communication). So many of these qualities are called “soft skills” when they’re actually hard skills. This interview, combined with Bad Bunny’s halftime show, actually made me feel optimistic. xoxo
Love this Substack. Sweatshirt wearing fan. And as a writer often mired in the perfectionism of clear grammar, I always marvel about what’s going on with another writer when there are glaring typos in the header! Slow down a bit? Love you!
Didn't watch the game, missed the half-time show, and will catch it shortly. Love and honor the show, the producers, and the cultures showcased❤️❤️❤️❤️

The halftime was wonderful; every detail was meaningful and poignant. It was spiritual - filled with love & joy and humanity. Thank you!
