President Trump Criticizes Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Performance... "The Worst Stage That Is Not American"

Before the excitement of America's biggest sports festival, the Super Bowl, could even be felt, President Donald Trump publicly criticized Bad Bunny's halftime show performance, sparking political and social controversy.

◆A Night Filled with Spanish at the Super Bowl

The star of the 60th Super Bowl halftime show, held on February 8 (local time), was global pop star Bad Bunny. The 2026 Grammy Award winner for 'Album of the Year' showcased a spectacular stage with 400 dancers alongside Beyoncé. Notably, Bad Bunny prominently featured his identity through Puerto Rican culture and Spanish lyrics during the halftime show.

◆Trump's Harsh Criticism: "Does Not Represent American Excellence"

However, shortly after the performance, President Trump took to social media to deliver a direct hit, calling it "the worst performance ever." He stated, "It does not represent American greatness and creativity at all," and criticized it for having "lyrics that no one can understand and inappropriate choreography." With over 100 million viewers watching this performance, President Trump's display of cultural exclusivity is expected to lead to ongoing disputes between Bad Bunny's fans and the political arena for the time being.
