Already a controversial pick to the main event, drawing criticism from Donald Trump, the rapper breezed through an eight-song set mostly made up of his latest album Debi Tirar Mas Fotos at the 60th edition of the NFL's biggest event.

While he made headlines at the Grammys by saying "ICE out", Bad Bunny capped off his set with a more tame political statement. Walking toward the camera, the rapper said "God Bless America", and then named countries in the Americas - "Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Brazil" as well as the US and Canada - in front of a sign reading "the only thing more powerful than hate is love".

Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin perform Despite speculation that Cardi B - who featured Bad Bunny on her hit 2018 single I Like It - would be a guest performer, Lady Gaga was tonight's surprise appearance. She performed a reggaeton-inspired version of her duet with Bruno Mars, Die With A Smile, before dancing salsa with the headliner. Cardi B still made a cameo as a dancer, along with celebrities Alix Earle, David Grutman, Karol G, Jessica Alba and Pedro Pascal. Ricky Martin, Livin' La Vida Loca singer and fellow Puerto Rican, also made an appearance, singing from a plastic chair in a scene that mirrored the cover of the Debi Tirar Mas Fotos album. He also paid homage to Latin artists with a clip of club classic track Gasolina leading into his song EoO. NFL hosts biggest wedding reception About five minutes into Bad Bunny's performance, just before Lady Gaga's appearance, a couple were seen on stage in a wedding ceremony. It emerged after his performance that the marriage was real, according to the rapper's representative. The unnamed husband and wife had invited Benito to their wedding, but he said they should instead be part of his half-time show. The artist also served as a witness and signed their marriage certificate. It is unclear whether some of the people in the background of their wedding were friends and family members or just backup dancers from the performance. Trump: Halftime show 'one of the worst, EVER' While it has so far seen rave reviews online, you might not be surprised to hear that the US president did not care for Bad Bunny's set. Taking to Truth Social during the third quarter of the Super Bowl, Trump said that the half-time show was "absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER!" "It makes no sense," he added, calling it "an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn't represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence. "Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World." Capping off his post, Trump also complained that "the NFL should immediately replace its ridiculous new Kickoff Rule". On the pitch, the Seattle Seahawks won their second-ever Super Bowl, as their dominant defence smothered the New England Patriots, setting up a comfortable 29-13 win.

The prime minister's director of communications, Tim Allan, a former adviser to Sir Tony Blair, announced on Monday morning he was resigning just five months after being brought in to steady the Downing Street ship. Sir Keir's fourth head of communications since Labour won the election in July 2024 quit less than 24 hours after the PM's chief of staff Morgan McSweeney resigned over his role in appointing Lord Mandelson as ambassador to the US. Further links between Lord Mandelson and the paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein were revealed last week, with fingers quickly being pointed at Mr McSweeney for encouraging his appointment. But Mr Allan only became head of communications a week before Lord Mandelson was sacked last September, so was not involved in his appointment. Politics latest: Allan puts 'out of office - gone golfing' message on WhatsApp Several Labour MPs have publicly called for Sir Keir to step down over the whole episode, with the PM set to address his MPs later today. However, Downing Street remained defiant on Monday lunchtime, with the prime minister's spokesman saying Sir Keir will not resign today and his mood is "upbeat and confident". Announcing his resignation, Mr Allan said: "I have decided to stand down to allow a new No 10 team to be built. "I wish the PM and his team every success." The Conservatives jumped on the second resignation of a key Starmer aide in less than 24 hours. Matt Vickers, deputy chairman of the Conservative Party, said: "The rats are abandoning the sinking ship that is Keir Starmer's premiership. "Labour MPs should stop moaning and put him out of his misery. The country deserves so much better than this weak, chaotic government. "The public is crying out for leadership with a backbone, a strong team and the clear plans to get Britain working again. That is Kemi Badenoch's new Conservative Party." Read more:Who is Morgan McSweeney?When the No 10 operation goes into freefall, it's nearly impossible to stabilise Sir Keir told Downing Street staff at a meeting just before Mr Allan's resignation that they must prove that politics can be a "force for good" and that they will go forward "with confidence as we continue changing the country". About the decision to appoint Lord Mandelson as British ambassador to Washington, he said: "The thing that makes me most angry is the undermining of the belief that politics can be a force for good and can change lives. "I have been absolutely clear that I regret the decision that I made to appoint Peter Mandelson. And I've apologised to the victims, which is the right thing to do." He described Mr McSweeney as a "colleague and a friend" who he has known for eight years and has "been in every battle that we needed to be in together". "We changed the Labour Party together. We won a general election together. And none of that would have been possible without Morgan McSweeney," he told staff. "His dedication, his commitment and his loyalty to our party and our country was second to none. And I want to thank him for his service." Mr Allan was brought in to turn Number 10's communication strategy around, more than 25 years after leaving Sir Tony's Downing Street as his deputy press secretary. Some inside Number 10 had resisted his appointment due to the communications company he founded, Portland, having taken on work to help improve the Kremlin's image. Towards the end of his most recent Downing Street tenure, Mr Allan angered journalists by getting rid of the daily afternoon meeting in which reporters quiz Number 10. He also introduced social media influencers to PM events and visits, normally only open to traditional media.

Nepal required 10 runs from the final over to pull off an upset but were only able to score five off Sam Curran as they ended on 180-6 chasing 185 in the Group C encounter at Wankhede Stadium. Earlier, Harry Brook (53 off 32 balls) and Jacob Bethell (55 off 35) sealed half-centuries with sixes, while Will Jacks (39no off 18) slammed three maximums in a 21-run final over as England posted 184-7 against the Associate nation in the teams' first-ever meeting. Scorecard: England vs Nepal, T20 World Cup, MumbaiEngland vs Nepal - as it happened at Wankhede StadiumStream England vs West Indies for FREE on Sky Sports App Nepal raced to 31-0 in three overs and then went again after a couple of wickets had checked their progress, cantering to 123-2 after 14 overs as Rohit Paudel (39 off 34) and Dipendra Singh Airee (44 off 29), who combined for 82 off 54 deliveries, tucked into the leg-spin of Adil Rashid (0-42), including flogging his third over for 19. The ask was cut to a manageable 62 runs from the final 36 balls as England got edgy, before Airee and Paudel were then caught slogging Liam Dawson (2-21) and Curran (1-27) in successive overs and the game switched back towards the favourites. However, a 22-run Jofra Archer over, in which Lokesh Bam (39no off 20) creamed back-to-back sixes, and then a 14-run Luke Wood set made for a thrilling finale - one Curran ensured went England's way. As England celebrated and Nepal considered what might have been, it became clear just how vital Jacks' late show with the bat had been. England next play West Indies in Mumbai on Wednesday - a game you can stream live for free on the Sky Sports App - before a Valentine's Day clash with Scotland in Kolkata and then a final group fixture against debutants Italy at the same venue on February 16. Nepal, who proved they will be a match for anybody at this tournament, are in action versus Italy on Thursday. England and Nepal play out Mumbai classic Brook's side, T20 World Cup winners in 2010 and 2022 and semi-finalists in the previous edition in 2024, stumbled to 57-3 one ball into the sixth over when Tom Banton (2) was pinned lbw on the reverse sweep to leg-spinner Sandeep Lamichhane's first delivery. Phil Salt (1) had earlier been caught on the sweep at the start of the second over as Nepal off-spinner Sher Malla struck with his first ball in the T20I format, with Jos Buttler (26) snicking a rising delivery from seamer Nandan Yadav (2-25) behind in the fifth. Brook - eager to move on from a "horrendous" time in the spotlight following his scuffle with a nightclub bouncer in New Zealand last autumn - got a move on for England after initially batting pretty sedately, sharing a fourth-wicket stand of 71 off 45 with Bethell. Bethell, who batted at No 3 with Brook entering at No 5, collared anything short, while Brook's sixes were cracked from deep in his crease before both batters holed out in the deep shortly after notching their third and sixth T20 international fifties respectively. England's innings stalled for a bit - Curran chopping on to his stumps for a pedestrian two - only for 45 runs to be looted from the final three overs, with Jacks taking apart Karan KC in the last set with three off-side maximums around Archer's run out. Archer and Wood were taken apart by Kushal Bhurtel (29 off 17) across the second and third overs - Archer (1-42) battered for 14 and Wood (1-31) nailed for 15 - before Dawson had Aasif Sheikh (7) pouched on the sweep and Jacks (1-17) caught and bowled Bhurtel. Back came Nepal, though, with Paudel and Airee smoking boundaries and running brilliantly and Lokesh's fireworks keeping dreams of a famous win alive before the nerveless Curran had the final say. Brook hails England's calmness under pressure England captain Harry Brook, speaking at the presentation: "That wasn't easy at all but thankfully we got over the line. Nepal played extremely well. Not many teams take Adil Rashid down the way they did. "They were outstanding against him and put us in a tricky situation on quite a few occasions. That wasn't ideal but it was just one of those days for him. I'm sure he will bounce back. "I said that if we take two or three wickets this all changes. We stuck to our guns, stayed calm. Curran knew exactly what he was going to try and do and he executed outstandingly. "With the bat, the way Bethell was rocking back and smashing the spinners into the stands was nice and Jacks slipped into his role at No 7. That has won us the game."

Nathan Bennett, 30, was found guilty at Bristol Crown Court of two charges of raping a child under 13, four of the sexual assault of a child under 13, and two charges of assault of a child under 13 by penetration. Bennett, from Corston, near Bath, began working at the Partou King Street nursery in Bristol in July 2024. Concerns were raised in February 2025 when nursery manager Victoria Tutton viewed CCTV footage showing Bennett putting his hands down the trousers of a child. Bennett was immediately sent home. Avon and Somerset Police began an investigation which led to Bennett's arrest and the closure of the nursery in the centre of the city. During four days of evidence, a jury heard how staff had noted that Bennett would sit children on his lap for lengthy periods of time, wear a pair of trousers with holes in the crotch area and seemed "territorial" over certain toddlers and their parents. One nursery practitioner described how Bennett had a "jealous attachment" with five children and would "take control of them". Speaking outside Bristol Crown Court, Temporary Detective Inspector Lucy Ford, from Avon and Somerset Police, said: "Nathan Bennett was trusted to care for children but committed sexual offences against the very young children at his place of work. "An investigation involving such young children was deeply challenging and distressing for all concerned." During the trial, video interviews of two children in the case - referred to as Child A and Child E - were played to the jury. Child E's mother also gave evidence, telling the jury her son had demonstrated how he'd been abused at the nursery. "I got him to stop doing it. I asked him when did that happen. He said it happened at nursery," she said. Read more from Sky News:More than 100 flood warnings issuedFather jailed after becoming radicalisedOne of Scotland's last D-Day veterans dies The child had identified the abuse was carried out by a man with the watch - the mother told the court they "immediately" knew who he was talking about as Bennett wore a smart watch which Child E "really liked". Bennett had previously pleaded guilty to 13 other charges relating to four of the five victims, who were aged two at the time, including charges of sexual assault. Giving evidence during the trial, Bennett said he was exposed to "a lot of sexual activity on myself" when he was a child. While he accepted that the contact between him and the toddlers was sexual, he denied having a sexual attraction to them. "As I stated I think already, it was emulating what I had experienced as a child - presuming it was to make them happy and feel better," said Bennett. Prosecutor Virginia Cornwall described the case as "every parent's nightmare". "He has admitted his sexual interest, that the Crown says, he has in pre-school-age boys, toddlers, essentially two and three years of age, by his partial guilty pleas to some of the charges in this case," she said. The defendant previously pleaded guilty to 13 other charges, including eight charges of sexual assault of a child under 13, four charges of causing a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity, and one charge of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child. An NSPCC spokesperson said: "Bennett abused his position of trust at the nursery in the most shocking and appalling way imaginable. Child sexual abuse can have lifelong impact on children and their loved ones, and our thoughts are with all the families caught up in this horrific case. It is vital they receive the support they need to process what they have experienced and move forwards with their lives."

The 84-year-old went missing from her home in Arizona under suspicious circumstances. She was last seen at her home near Tucson on the evening of 31 January and was reported missing the following morning. Investigators said they had found signs of forced entry and believe she was taken against her will. Here's everything we know so far. What do we know about the disappearance? The NBC News anchor's mother was last seen at roughly 9.30pm on 31 January, when she was dropped off at home by family after having dinner with them, the sheriff's department said. Ms Guthrie, who lives alone, was then reported missing by her family the next day, Sunday, after she did not attend church. Ms Guthrie has a pacemaker and needs daily medication, and her family and authorities have said they are concerned her health could be deteriorating by the day. What do we know about the investigation? Search and rescue teams were supported by volunteers, Border Patrol, and the homicide team after Ms Guthrie was reported missing. They were stood down by the end of 2 February as the case became a criminal investigation. Police have said there were signs of forced entry at the property, and DNA tests showed blood found on Ms Guthrie's front porch matched hers, the county sheriff has said. Investigators also found her doorbell camera was disconnected early on 1 December, with software data recording movements at the home minutes later. Investigators have been unable to recover the footage because Ms Guthrie did not have an active subscription to the service. Police officers have been reviewing information from licence plate cameras and surveillance video from nearby homes while working to analyse data from local phone towers. Read more:Epstein files: The key findings so far Ransom notes At least three media organisations reported receiving apparent ransom notes during the week after Ms Guthrie's disappearance, which they handed over to the police. One man was arrested in Los Angeles on Thursday, accused of sending texts to Ms Guthrie's family asking about Bitcoin demanded in a reported ransom letter, according to a federal criminal complaint out of Arizona, NBC News reported. The messages were not linked to the other reported ransom demands. Heith Janke, the FBI chief in Phoenix, said details in the messages to news organisations included a demand for money, with a deadline for Thursday evening and a second deadline for Monday if the first one was not met. At least one note mentioned a floodlight at Ms Guthrie's home and an Apple watch, he added. On Friday, KOLD-TV in Tucson said it received a new message, via email, linked to Ms Guthrie's case. The station said it could not disclose its contents and the FBI said it was reviewing the message's authenticity. 'Vehicle of interest' Police investigating the disappearance were searching a vehicle in Arizona that may be connected to the investigation, NBC News reported on Friday. A spokesperson for the convenience store chain Circle K told the broadcaster, Sky News's US partner, that officers visited one of their stores after "receiving a tip regarding a vehicle of interest, and our team has provided them access to the store's surveillance video". Officials have not said whether the vehicle or vehicles are connected to any part of the disappearance. The FBI has offered a $50,000 reward for information about Ms Guthrie's whereabouts. What has Savannah Guthrie said? On Wednesday, Savannah Guthrie shared a video on social media in which she addressed her mother's captor alongside her sister Annie and brother Cameron. "We are ready to talk," the anchor said. "However, we live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated. "We need to know without a doubt that she is alive and that you have her. We want to hear from you, and we are ready to listen. Please reach out to us." She added: "Our mum is our heart and our home. She is 84 years old. Her health, her heart, is fragile. She lives in constant pain. She is without any medicine. She needs it to survive, she needs it not to suffer. "Mummy, if you are hearing this, you are a strong woman. You are God's precious daughter." Shortly after the video was posted, Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social: "I spoke with Savannah Guthrie, and let her know that I am directing ALL Federal Law Enforcement to be at the family's, and Local Law Enforcement's, complete disposal, IMMEDIATELY. "We are deploying all resources to get her mother home safely. The prayers of our Nation are with her and her family. GOD BLESS AND PROTECT NANCY!" On Saturday, she told the potential kidnappers her family "will pay" for her safe return. "We received your message and we understand," she said, speaking alongside her siblings Cameron and Annie in an Instagram video. "We beg you now to return our mother to us, so that we can celebrate with her." "This is the only way we will have peace," she added. "This is very valuable to us, and we will pay." Savannah Guthrie co-hosts Today, the morning show on NBC News, the US sister network of Sky News. She often brought her mother on as a guest. Speaking on the show in 2022 on Nancy Guthrie's 80th birthday, she said: "She has met unthinkable challenges in her life with grit, without self-pity, with determination and always, always with unshakeable faith. "She loves us, her family, fiercely, and her selflessness and sacrifice for us, her steadfastness and her unmovable confidence is the reason any of us grew up to do anything."

The embattled prime minister is expected to face the Parliamentary Labour Party today amid anger over his appointment of Lord Mandelson as ambassador to the US, despite knowing that his links with Jeffrey Epstein continued after the financier's conviction for child sex offences. It comes after chief of staff Morgan McSweeney announced he would step down on Sunday amid the fallout from the Mandelson row. Mr McSweeney said the decision to appoint Lord Mandelson to the role "was wrong", before saying, "I advised the prime minister to make that appointment and I take full responsibility for that advice". Downing Street 'reeling' Sky's political editor Beth Rigby said that, according to two Downing Street senior sources, Mr McSweeney was initially "in two minds" about stepping down. "As early as this morning [Sunday], he wasn't planning to resign, necessarily," she said, adding that the sources also told her the gravity of the situation made it clear that his resignation was "inevitable". A third source also told Rigby that he and the prime minister decided it was the right moment to move on in "a mutual understanding".

But despite the resignation, Rigby said Number 10 is "reeling" as the scandal "rips through the heart" of the Labour government. She added that the indication within Downing Street is Sir Keir will "press on" and not step down over the affair. Read more from Beth Rigby: When the No 10 operation goes into freefall, it's nearly impossible to stabilise Starmer 'mortally wounded' One Labour MP, speaking anonymously to Sky political reporter Faye Brown, offered scathing criticism of the departing aide, saying that they "won't be shedding a tear that he's gone". "He's the very worst of our party," they added. "Every decision he's taken is to bolster himself and wage a war of factionalism. "The PM should have sacked him just as he should have with Mandelson. The buck ultimately stops with the PM." The MP then said that Mr McSweeney's resignation might not save Sir Keir's premiership, adding: "All this has done has bought him a little more time, but he's mortally wounded and it's not if, it's when he goes." 👉Tap here to listen to Electoral Dysfunction on your podcast app 👈 Two unnamed Cabinet ministers have been quoted by The Times as saying Sir Keir was "weaker" and "could stand down at any moment", a claim Downing Street said was "categorically untrue". Union chiefs have also heaped pressure on the Labour leader, with Maryam Eslamdoust, the general secretary of the Labour-affiliated Transport Salaried Staffs' Association, telling The Telegraph: "There's no case for waiting until May, given the scale of defeat we are facing at these critical elections. It's time to elect a new leader." By contrast, Patrick Hurley, the Labour MP for Southport, said the prime minister has his "full support" and believes Mr McSweeney's resignation was a "turning point" for the party. "I'm grateful to the prime minister for getting a grip on the fact that he's been badly advised on a range of issues over the last 18 months," he told Sky News. "This is now a turning point and an opportunity to refocus on what the public want, and the promises we made when we were elected in 2024. "The prime minister has my full support and I am sure the whole Parliamentary Labour Party will now collectively raise our game and deliver the positive changes the country needs." Files released earlier this week suggest Lord Mandelson may have shared confidential information with Epstein after the financial crash, when he was the business secretary in Gordon Brown's government. Lord Mandelson quit the Labour Party and resigned from the House of Lords following the revelations, though he still holds the title of being a "lord", as removing that requires legislation. His representatives have been contacted for comment. He has previously denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, and said he regrets maintaining a relationship with him and apologised to the sex offender's victims.

Cherki's low effort, with Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson caught upfield, sparked wild Manchester City celebrations at Anfield but the goal was ruled out following a VAR check due to a foul by Erling Haaland on Dominik Szoboszlai as they sprinted towards the empty net. Haaland's foul meant referee Craig Pawson had to then consider an earlier pull by Szoboszlai on Haaland, and send the Liverpool player off for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. On co-commentary for Sky Sports at the time of the incident, Neville said: "That feels so unjust, I know there are rules, but there is the smell of the game, it's completely gone. Liverpool 1-2 Man City - Match report and highlightsLive Premier League table | Watch FREE PL highlightsGot Sky? Watch Premier League games LIVE on your phone📱No Sky? Get Sky Sports or stream with no contract on NOW📺 "There is no person who would disallow that goal. But it's going to be disallowed. Talk about killjoy. Liverpool lose by getting a man sent off. City lose because they don't get a goal. "You have just killed one of the moments of the season." The Sky Sports pundit elaborated on his frustration in The Gary Neville Podcast afterwards. "We know that the referee and the VAR officials have got to the right conclusion, but if you're in the camp that VAR's ruining football and VAR takes the joy and entertainment out of the game, that is one of the best bits of evidence that you could possibly want," said Neville. "That was a great football moment where you just got absolute bedlam at the end of a game, players fouling each other, the ball dribbling in the net, a team coming from 1-0 down who have hardly ever won at Anfield and basically gone on to win 3-1. "There were fans celebrating with the players on the pitch after a bit of a mini-invasion from a couple of City fans. "It's a classic English football moment in a season. If City were to start narrowing the gap on Arsenal, you'd look at that as being the celebration, the moment. "I think 10 City players on the bench ran over and celebrated with Haaland. It just felt like a golden moment that is taken away from the game. "Liverpool fans didn't particularly want it at that point, they knew the game had gone, and now Szoboszlai gets a red card. He's off and doesn't play in their next game. "No one wins. If I'm being cold about it, the referee and the VAR officials have got to the right decision. "However, something didn't smell right about it at all. They didn't need to intervene. "I'm not saying that you can be subjective about when you intervene in the emotion of a football match. "You've got to apply the rules and the laws, or else we'd go crazy, and if that had been nil-nil, we'd have said, 'Absolutely, make sure you make the right decision'. But at that moment it just didn't feel right." Haaland: Just let the goal stand Haaland felt sorry for Szoboszlai, who will be suspended for Liverpool's midweek trip to Sunderland, and said the officials should have just let the goal stand. Haaland mistakenly thought his former Red Bull Salzburg team-mate would be banned for three games, rather than one, but questioned the need for VAR to intervene. "Of course, the referee had to follow the rules but this will give him three games. In the end I feel bad for him because he gets three games [sic]," the striker told Sky Sports. "Just give the goal, don't give a red card. Simple as that. "It's the rules and it's how it is. "If Cherki just passed me the ball so I can score... but he didn't want to, so that's just how it is!" Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola echoed Haaland's comments. "Common sense, no?" he said in his press conference when asked about the incident. "We won the game and now Szoboszlai cannot play. I know he pulled him, but there are many pulls in a game where the referee says, 'Play on, play on, play on'. "In this country, in this league, it's always been like that. So, give a goal, 3-1, Szoboszlai can play and we are happy."
