Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, known for his dynamic performances and recent hosting gig on Saturday Night Live, has found himself at the center of a political storm over his upcoming Super Bowl halftime show.
The performance, slated for Super Bowl LX at Levis Stadium in Santa Clara, California, will be delivered entirely in Spanish, a decision that has ignited criticism from certain conservative circles.
As reported by The Post Millennial, the announcement has drawn the ire of figures such as Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Noem, speaking on The Benny Show, emphasized her commitment to ensuring the event's security, stating, I have the responsibility for making sure everybody goes to the Super Bowl, has the opportunity to enjoy it and to leave, and thats what Americas about.
She further remarked, people should not be coming to the Super Bowl unless theyre law-abiding Americans who love this country, hinting at potential restrictions on attendance.
In a lighthearted response during his SNL monologue, Bad Bunny quipped that everyone is happy about his upcoming performance, including even Fox News. He humorously presented a montage of edited clips portraying Fox hosts as saying: Bad Bunny. Is. My favorite. Musician. And he should be the next. President.
Addressing the language of his performance, he added, If you didnt understand what I just said. You have four months to learn."
Bad Bunny, who has previously criticized U.S. immigration policies under President Donald Trump, has yet to make further comments on the political backlash. The debate over his performance underscores ongoing tensions surrounding cultural representation and immigration in America.
