“A Slap in the Face”: Trump Blasts Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Show as “Disgusting”

Just minutes after Bad Bunny finished his massive, all-Spanish halftime set at Levi’s Stadium, President Donald Trump hopped on Truth Social to deliver a blistering review. The President labeled the performance a “slap in the face to our country” and argued that it failed to represent American “Success, Creativity, or Excellence”.

Trump’s biggest grievance seemed to be the language and the choreography. “Nobody understands a word this guy is saying,” Trump posted, referring to the Puerto Rican superstar being the first solo artist to headline the show entirely in Spanish. He also took a direct shot at the dancing, calling it “disgusting” and inappropriate for the millions of children watching at home across the U.S. and the world.

While the President was fuming from Mar-a-Lago, the rest of the world saw a very different show. Bad Bunny’s 13-minute set featured guest appearances by Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, turning the stadium into a vibrant celebration of Latin culture. Supporters hailed it as a landmark moment for Latino representation, especially when the show ended with a message on the big screens: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love”.

The clash has once again turned the Super Bowl stage into a political battlefield. While Trump claimed the “Fake News Media” would give the show undue praise despite it being a “mess,” the NFL and halftime sponsor Apple Music have stood by their choice, calling Bad Bunny “one of the greatest artists in the world”
