Meanwhile, the halftime show itself drew massive attention. Bad Bunny delivered a historic performance entirely in Spanish and was joined by major stars including Lady Gaga, Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, and Ricky Martin. At the same time, Turning Point USA offered an alternative “All-American” halftime show on YouTube, featuring Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett.
Given Trump’s known support for Turning Point USA, many expected his party to broadcast that alternative show. However, the viral clip suggests otherwise. Video from his golf club party appears to show Bad Bunny performing on large screens in the background, surprising many viewers and fueling online discussion.
Trump later took to social media to again criticize the halftime show, calling it “one of the worst ever” and claiming it failed to reflect American values. Despite his comments, the footage has left many wondering whether he may have tuned in after all. Bad Bunny’s performance ended with a message displayed on screens: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”
