ADVERTISEMENTOn Monday, Bad Bunny’s 52.7 million Instagram followers were left with only a link to his album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” and the message “No Posts Yet: When badbunnypr posts, you’ll see their photos and videos here.”
He even deleted the photo from his profile, which showed him following zero other accounts Monday.

“Bad Bunny deletes all his instagram posts”
It’s just unfortunate for the guy. The guy isn’t the problem, it’s the left weaponizing him and using him as a political pawn. I’d want to disappear too after that performance. pic.twitter.com/of84jqsyJj— Black Dust (@CyberAck0) February 10, 2026

Bored Panda had more details to add on Bad Bunny looking afraid after his performance:
The 2026 Super Bowl was full of eyebrow-raising moments, from featuring not one, but two halftime shows for the first time in the event’s history, to Bad Bunny’s historic performance now being overshadowed by a wave of wild conspiracy theories online.
In a now-viral clip circulating across social media, the Puerto Rican singer was filmed leaving the event while repeatedly looking over his shoulder, sparking eerie religious and occult conspiracy theories.
ADVERTISEMENTBad Bunny sparked a wave of online conspiracy theories after a viral video appeared to show him repeatedly looking over his shoulder in concern while exiting the Super Bowl stadium.
The rumors exploded even further when the singer abruptly wiped his Instagram clean just hours after his historic all-Spanish halftime show.
While some netizens pushed occult “devil” theories, others argued the moment was linked to alleged threats against the Grammy winner.
Bad Bunny’s exit sparked comments ranging from, “Take me to the devil, I wanna swap some souls for [money],” to others even debating whether the pop star was under the influence of illegal substances.
Even at the Grammy’s he was spooked when Lady Gaga approached him:
