Kid Rock has offered his opinion on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show after leading a rival event backed by Turning Point USA.
The musician shared his reaction during a television appearance following Super Bowl LX, addressing the NFL’s choice of halftime performer.
His comments added to the ongoing discussion surrounding Bad Bunny’s appearance on one of sport’s biggest stages.
Kid Rock gives his verdict on Bad Bunny halftime show
Kid Rock discussed Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance during an appearance on Fox News after the game.
He made clear the show did not resonate with him personally, framing his response as a matter of preference rather than a direct criticism of the artist.
“Like most people, I didn’t understand any of it. I saw there’s a lot of dancers and a lot of big to-do stuff. And, you know, he said he wanted to have a dance party; it looked like he had one.”
“Not my cup of tea, but I don’t fault that kid for doing the Super Bowl, getting in front of a global audience.”
“I fault the NFL for putting him in that position and Turning Point for having to come out and have an alternative for people to watch. You know, it’s just — poor kid.”
TPUSA-backed halftime show runs alongside Super Bowl
Kid Rock headlined the All-American Halftime Show, a separate event promoted by Turning Point USA that aired alongside the official Super Bowl broadcast.
The alternative show was presented as an option for viewers seeking a different style of halftime entertainment.
The remarks positioned Kid Rock as unimpressed while still acknowledging the scale and ambition of the halftime production.
His comments on Bad Bunny’s performance came in the context of that parallel event and the contrasting visions of what a Super Bowl halftime show should be.
