Bad Bunny’s set celebrated his heritage and all nations of the Americas with scenes displaying Puerto Rico life, a show of flags and even a marriage, as he was joined without warning visitors like Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.

The 31-year-old artist carried out a collection of his greatest hits, together with “Tití Me Preguntó” and “DtMF.” During his performance, a message was displayed across a large screen in the stadium: “The solely factor extra highly effective than hate is love.”

When organizers announced Bad Bunny, an outspoken critic of Trump, would be headlining the halftime show, many conservatives were quick to push back. Turning Point USA, a conservative advocacy organization, even announced its own “All-American Halftime Show” to protest Bad Bunny’s performance.

Kid Rock headlined that concert, which was streamed online at the same time as Bad Bunny’s show. An estimated 6.1 million concurrent viewers watched Turning Point USA’s YouTube livestream, according to The Athletic.

Trump slammed Bad Bunny’s performance in a Truth Social post, but made no mention of Turning Point USA’s alternative event.

“It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence,” Trump wrote. “Nobody 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.”
