\nOn October 7, President Donald Trump ripped the NFL’s decision to go with Bad Bunny.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
It was only a matter of time before President Donald Trump offered his thoughts on the halftime show of Super Bowl 60.<\/p>\n
The NFL announced last week that Bad Bunny will headline the halftime show at Levi\u2019s Stadium on February 8, 2026. Initially, there were rumors that either Adele or Taylor Swift would perform in Santa Clara, but the league ultimately went with the Grammy Award winner from Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n
\u201cBad Bunny represents the global energy and cultural vibrancy that define today\u2019s music scene. As one of the most influential and streamed artists in the world, his unique ability to bridge genres, languages, and audiences makes him an exciting and natural choice to take the Super Bowl halftime stage,\u201d\u00a0said Jon Baker,<\/a>\u00a0the SVP of Global Event Production for the NFL. \u201cWe know his dynamic performances, creative vision, and deep connection with fans will deliver the kind of unforgettable experience we\u2019ve come to expect from this iconic cultural moment.\u201d<\/p>\n
Over the past week, Megyn Kelly and countless other commentators have ripped the NFL for giving Bad Bunny such a big platform.<\/p>\n

President Trump doesn’t hold back his thoughts.<\/h2>\n
While on NewsMax this Tuesday, the president of the United States was asked about Bad Bunny headlining the Super Bowl halftime show.<\/p>\n
Trump said it’s “absolutely ridiculous” that Bad Bunny will be in the spotlight on Super Bowl Sunday.<\/p>\n
“I don\u2019t know why they\u2019re doing it,” Trump said on NewsMax. “I think it’s absolutely ridiculous.”<\/p>\n
There’s a petition for this year’s halftime show.<\/h2>\n
As of this Tuesday night, there’s a petition with the title “Replace bad bunny in the superbowl halftime show” that’s gaining traction.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want to be clear I do not condone any racism or hateful behavior connected to this petition. I have no issue with Bad Bunny as an artist he is talented and successful. My concern is simply about the Super Bowl halftime show needing an act with broader appeal across genres and audiences rather than leaning into one lane that may not connect with the majority of viewers. The Super Bowl Halftime Show is one of the most iconic events in entertainment, drawing millions of viewers from all around the globe. For decades, it has been a platform to celebrate music that unites people, offering a shared experience that brings together fans from different backgrounds, tastes, and cultures,” the petition reads.<\/a><\/p>\n
“Each year, audiences look forward to the performance, hoping for a show that captures the energy, excitement, and spirit that make the halftime show a highlight of American entertainment. This year, fans are eager for a halftime show that emphasizes connection and togetherness. The goal is a performance that resonates with everyone, creating a moment of shared enjoyment and celebration. By prioritizing inclusivity and broad appeal, the halftime show can continue its tradition of bringing people together through music, bridging differences, and offering an experience that everyone can remember. We encourage the organizers of the Super Bowl to consider a lineup that emphasizes unity and connection, celebrating the diverse audience tuning in while creating a performance that excites and inspires.”<\/p>\n
Despite all the outrage online, the NFL has zero plans to replace Bad Bunny.<\/p>\n
