\n\tCelebrities are sharing their thoughts on Bad Bunny\u2019s 2026 Super Bowl halftime performance<\/a>. <\/p>\n \n\tThe Puerto Rican rapper and singer hit the big stage (aka the NFL field) on Sunday night, where he performed several of his hits, shared the spotlight<\/a> with Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin and ended with two powerful messages: \u201cThe only thing more powerful than hate is love\u201d and \u201cTogether, We Are America.\u201d <\/p>\n \n\tFollowing his 13-minute set, reviews began pouring in, with public figures utilizing social media to weigh in on the Grammy Award winner\u2019s landmark performance. <\/p>\n \n\tFellow Grammy-winning artist Kacey Musgraves took to X, where she wrote, \u201cWell. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done.\u201d Her post was in response to Turning Point USA\u2019s alternative halftime show<\/a>, where Kid Rock served as headliner. <\/p>\n \n\tJohn Mellencamp took to X on Sunday night, where he posted a statement that read, \u201cI don\u2019t know what Bad Bunny<\/a> is saying, however, I do know he is standing up for Puerto Rico and I am standing up for him. His half time show was great.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tIn contrast, Jake Paul shared distaste with Bad Bunny\u2019s halftime show, writing on X that he was \u201cPurposefully turning off the halftime show.\u201d <\/p>\n \n\t\u201cLet\u2019s rally together and show big corporations they can\u2019t just do whatever they want without consequences (which equals viewership for them),\u201d the influencer continued. \u201cYou are their benefit. Realize you have power. Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America. I cannot support that.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tPresident Donald Trump echoed<\/a> Paul\u2019s sentiments, taking to Truth Social to call Bad Bunny\u2019s halftime show \u201cabsolutely terrible\u201d and \u201cdisgusting.\u201d Trump added, \u201cNobody 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.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tHowever, Scandal actress Kerry Washington argued of his show on Threads<\/a>, \u201cthat performance was the epitome of LOVE.\u201d She continued, \u201cAnd a wise man once said \u2018the only thing more powerful than hate is LOVE.’\u201d <\/p>\n \n\t\u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll ever recover from that\u2026\u201d Washington wrote in a separate post. <\/p>\n \n\tJimmy Fallon shared a photo of himself, seemingly a recreation of an iconic Bad Bunny look where he wears a straw hat, writing the title of his Grammy Award-winning album<\/a> DeB\u00cd TiRAR M\u00e1S FOToS.<\/p>\n \n\tElmo (yes, Elmo) called Bad Bunny\u2019s set \u201cAMAZING.\u201d He continued, \u201cThat Bunny was AMAZING.
