Emma Stone recently shared her “Super Bowl excitement” while recalling her experience at a past halftime show and expressing anticipation for this year’s performance. In a Rolling Stone interview published on February 4, the actress humorously forgot she had seen Maroon 5 perform at the Super Bowl before turning her attention to the upcoming show featuring Bad Bunny.
Looking Back on a Past Super Bowl Halftime Show
During the interview, Stone remembered attending the Super Bowl halftime event while filming Zombieland 2 in Atlanta. She described the 2019 game as one of the
“most famously slow and kind of uneventful Super Bowls in history,”
with the entire cast and crew watching together. When asked which band performed during halftime, Stone admitted,
“Let me Google that, give me one second. Clearly this was not… oh — Maroon 5.”
Maroon 5 had headlined the Super Bowl LIII halftime show alongside Travis Scott and Big Boi.
Excitement Builds for Bad Bunny’s Upcoming Performance
Stone expressed her enthusiasm for the upcoming Super Bowl on Sunday, especially eager to see Bad Bunny take the stage. She said,
“I’m definitely going to watch the Super Bowl — I am very invested in it. My brother was a high school quarterback, so I will be watching with him, and that’ll be fun. But I’m really excited for Bad Bunny, obviously.”

She also noted that although she has never seen Bad Bunny live before, she looks forward to the concert, remarking,
“No, but I would love to. So I feel like I’m gonna see him in concert in a couple of days. We all are!”

Personal Music Preferences and Family Life
Beyond the Super Bowl discussion, Stone shared insights into her current music choices, mentioning that her playlist remains fairly consistent with what she listened to as a child. She revealed,
“To be quite honest with you, the thing that we’ve been listening to day-in and day-out, non-stop around the clock, because I have an almost 5-year-old, is the entire soundtrack of KPop Demon Hunters. It’s all we listen to from 7 a.m. to 7:30 p.m.”
