The 44-year-old actress appeared at the start of the set wearing a white corset-style tank top and jeans, blending in with background dancers as Bad Bunny kicked off his performance.

Jessica Alba speaks out against ICE operations
In June 2025, Alba joined several celebrities in publicly opposing Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) amid protests in Los Angeles.
The actress used her social media platform to share resources supporting demonstrators and highlighting the chaotic atmosphere following ICE raids and National Guard deployment. She also posted “know your rights” pamphlets and guidance on how people could protect themselves during enforcement actions.
Last month, California saw large-scale protests against ICE, with demonstrators gathering in significant numbers across Los Angeles.
While demonstrations remained largely peaceful for much of the time, police reported that federal authorities deployed tear gas on a crowd that had assembled on Alameda Street between Aliso and Commercial streets.
According to the Los Angeles Police Department, some participants threw “bottles, rocks and industrial-size fireworks,” prompting officers to issue orders to disperse.
