Bad Bunny's Super Bowl LX Halftime Show has turned its television run into a clean awards sweep.
At the 2026 Creative Arts Emmys, the halftime special won all seven categories in which it was nominated, making Bad Bunny a first-time Emmy winner.
Pitchfork reported that the show won Outstanding Variety Special (Live), becoming only the third Super Bowl halftime performance to win that category.
The production also earned awards for music direction, choreography, sound mixing, lighting design, technical direction/camerawork and directing.
That seven-for-seven result made the halftime show the most-awarded nominee of the first Creative Arts night, according to Pitchfork.
The win also adds another Emmy credit to JAY-Z's producing work on the Super Bowl halftime platform. JAY-Z was an executive producer on Bad Bunny's show and had previously earned an Emmy through Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl LIX halftime performance.
The distinction matters because the awards are attached to different credited contributors depending on category. RRL is not treating every one of the seven trophies as an individual Bad Bunny award in the same sense; the accurate headline is that his halftime show swept all seven nominated categories and that the Outstanding Variety Special (Live) win made him an Emmy winner.
The sweep adds another layer to a performance that was already one of the year's biggest music events.
For RRL, the clean story is the scale of the television recognition: seven nominations, seven wins, across performance production, direction, technical execution and the live-special category.
