Despite the White House insisting that President Donald Trump would “much prefer” to watch the “All American” alternative Super Bowl halftime show, video suggests that the official performance by Puerto Rican artist and Trump critic Bad Bunny was aired “on the big screens” at Trump’s private watch party in Florida on Sunday.
Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, has been the target of MAGA scorn since being announced as the headliner for Super Bowl LX’s halftime show.
In protest, the conservative advocacy organization Turning Point USA revealed that it would be airing its own alternative half-time show starring artist and Trump ally Kid Rock, a performance that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters last week that Trump would “much prefer” to watch over the official show.
And yet, video has emerged that appears to show Trump, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and other attendees at the president’s private Super Bowl watch party watching Bad Bunny’s performance on the big screens, sparking widespread ridicule, Pro Football & Sports Network reported.
“Footage from inside Trump’s golf club Super Bowl party reveals the Bad Bunny half-time show played on the big screens,” wrote X user “Patriot Takes,” a popular political commentary account with more than 460,000 followers. “What a bunch of hypocrites.”
Trump apparently took time away from watching the Super Bowl to rage on social media about Bad Bunny’s halftime show performance, calling it “absolutely terrible” and “one of the worst, ever!”
Meanwhile, the “All American” halftime show alternative with Kid Rock was widely mocked for both its content and technical difficulties, being unable to be streamed on the popular social media platform X — owned by Trump ally Elon Musk — due to “licensing restrictions.”
“Not even Trump wanted to watch the lip sync extravaganza from [Turning Point USA],” wrote journalist Jeff Benjamin in a social media post on X Monday.
