President Donald Trump had a lot to say about Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show.
“The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER! It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence,” Trump posted on Truth Social after Bad Bunny’s performance.
The president said, “nobody understands a word this guy is saying.” The Grammy award-winning singer has committed to singing only in Spanish.
“There is nothing inspirational about this mess of a Halftime Show,” Trump wrote.
The president also called the show “just a ‘slap in the face’ to our Country.”
Earlier on Sunday, the White House issued a statement from Trump about the Super Bowl, in which the president said he sent his “best wishes to the athletes and coaches of the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks as they take the field.” The message did not reference the halftime show.
Bad Bunny performed at Super Bowl LX on Sunday just one week after winning three Grammys, including album of the year.
Bad Bunny did not mention ICE during his performance, focusing instead on inclusion. His backup dancers ran out with flags of the countries in North and South America.
He also performed in front of a billboard with the words: “THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE.” During his set, he held up a football with the words “TOGETHER, WE ARE AMERICA” on it.
The singer made headlines last week for saying “ICE Out” during an acceptance speech at the Grammys, a statement that placed him, a celebrity of Puerto Rican heritage, in direct opposition to the president.
