You WEREN’T wrong. Bad Bunny’s halftime show was a STATEMENT from the NFL
It was supposed to be the ultimate celebration of American culture, uniting families across the nation. But instead, Super Bowl LX’s halftime show sparked a cultural explosion that left millions of Americans feeling alienated, insulted, and excluded from their own national pastime.
When Bad Bunny, a reggaeton superstar from Puerto Rico, took center stage during the halftime show, it was a moment for diversity and Latin culture—but it quickly became a hostile takeover. For 10 minutes, Americans were forced to watch a performance in Spanish, with lyrics that many viewers considered disgusting, vulgar, and politically charged.
But here’s where things really took a dark turn: The NFL’s choice to spotlight Bad Bunny’s politically charged performance is seen by many as a deliberate move to shove woke culture down America’s throat. The problem? It backfired spectacularly. Americans were left confused, angry, and feeling like they were no longer welcome in their own country’s most celebrated event. The NFL has officially lost its way, and it’s clear: woke culture is not the answer.

1. Bad Bunny: A Political Statement, Not a Performance
The Super Bowl halftime show has long been a platform for American culture to shine. But when Bad Bunny—an artist known more for his anti-American politics than his music—took the stage, the NFL made a statement. It wasn’t a celebration of American values; it was a push for the globalist agenda.
For 10 minutes, English-speaking America was left to struggle with a show entirely in Spanish. Bad Bunny’s music, known for its explicit lyrics and controversial messages, was unapologetically pushed on 100 million viewers without translation or explanation.
And while some viewers may have loved the Latin flair, the show quickly became a political statement. The choice to feature an artist who has openly criticized the U.S. government, who has spoken about Puerto Rican independence, and who has performed at pro-immigration rallies sent a clear message. The NFL wasn’t about uniting Americans—they were pushing an agenda. (breitbart.com)
2. The Lyrics: Family-Friendly Entertainment? Not So Much
The Super Bowl is supposed to be a family event—a time for Americans of all ages to come together and celebrate their shared love for the sport. But this year, the NFL decided to include lyrics during the halftime show that were anything but family-friendly.
Without subtitles, viewers were left in the dark about what was being sung, but as soon as the lyrics were translated, it became clear: this was not suitable for children. The lyrics included graphic references to sex, violence, and degradation. Lines like “Get horny and versatile” and “Push it in” were heard on national television, with no bleeping or warnings for parents. In the age of cancel culture and woke propaganda, this performance felt like an attack on American values—especially when viewed by families sitting down to watch the game together. (theguardian.com)
This wasn’t just music—it was a cultural invasion. And the NFL didn’t care.
3. The NFL’s Unapologetic Stance: Is This Really American?
As Americans across the country took to social media to express their frustration, the NFL doubled down. When asked about the performance and the backlash, Roger Goodell, the NFL Commissioner, was defensive. He tried to justify the choice by saying that Bad Bunny was one of the most popular entertainers in the world, and that the NFL aimed to make the Super Bowl a global spectacle.
But here’s the problem: The Super Bowl is America’s game. It’s not about appeasing foreign audiences or becoming the world’s stage—it’s about bringing Americans together. And by ignoring half of the audience—those who didn’t speak Spanish or didn’t agree with the political agenda being pushed—it became a political statement that alienated the average American viewer. The NFL had officially lost touch with its base. (deadline.com)
4. TPUSA’s ‘All-American Halftime Show’: The Conservative Response
But don’t think that patriotic Americans were just going to sit back and accept this. The Turning Point USA (TPUSA) alternative halftime show came as a strong response to the NFL’s woke spectacle. While Bad Bunny’s performance was divisive, TPUSA delivered a patriotic, all-American show that was everything Bad Bunny’s performance wasn’t: family-friendly, unifying, and true to American values.
Kid Rock, a rock icon known for his unapologetic patriotism, headlined the TPUSA halftime show with an electrifying performance. The show featured American anthems and Christian hymns, with a special moment where Kid Rock encouraged viewers to celebrate Jesus Christ and read their Bibles. It was a redeeming moment after the cultural chaos of the Super Bowl’s official show.
And the results were staggering. The TPUSA halftime show garnered millions of viewers, with over 25 million views on social media in just 12 hours. That’s more than many of the biggest shows in TV history, including American Idol and CBS’s most popular series. The NFL and mainstream media can no longer ignore the fact that Americans are hungry for content that celebrates the country’s values. (deadline.com)
5. The NFL’s Reckoning: Will They Lose Fans for Good?
The cultural divide in America is only growing, and the NFL is feeling the pressure. This Super Bowl is more than just a football game—it’s a microcosm of the nation’s ongoing culture war. The backlash to the Bad Bunny halftime show is proof that the NFL’s embrace of woke culture has alienated a significant portion of its fanbase.
The NFL has consistently leaned into progressive politics in recent years, with players kneeling during the national anthem, supporting BLM, and promoting other left-wing causes. But with viewership on the decline, it’s clear that patriotic Americans are tired of being lectured by athletes and entertainers who have no real connection to the struggles of everyday people.
The woke agenda may be influencing Hollywood, the NFL, and even the Super Bowl, but Americans are starting to fight back. By turning off the Super Bowl halftime show, millions of people sent a clear message: we’re not going to be lectured during our biggest national celebration. (foxnews.com)
6. Conclusion: The NFL Has Chosen Its Path—But Will It Pay the Price?
The fallout from this year’s Super Bowl halftime show is far from over. The NFL has made it clear that it’s willing to lose some of its traditional American audience in exchange for appealing to global markets. But in doing so, they’ve alienated the very people who made America’s game the cultural institution it is today.
As millions of fans tune out of the NFL and turn to alternative programming, one thing is clear: patriotism is still alive and well in America, and the NFL might want to rethink its cultural strategy before it loses its audience for good. This is a cultural reckoning that will continue to unfold—watch this space.
