Turning Point USA is set to hold an alternative performance to rival this year’s Super Bowl Halftime ShowThe All-American Halftime Show announced last year that it would be hosting the performance on the night of the NFL Super Bowl, which falls on 8 February.The New England Patriots will be facing off against the Seattle Seahawks and as per tradition, there’s set to be a star-studded halftime show with acts including Green Day, Charlie Puth, Brandi Carlile, Coco Jones and Bad Bunny, who is headlining on the night.Turning Point USA, which was founded by the late Charlie Kirk, announced they would be holding the alternative gig after backlash from Republicans over Bad Bunny headlining the show,
with people claiming him to be a ‘Trump hater’, while others criticised his Spanish music.As per the New York Post, Bad Bunny, real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has been openly critical of Trump – but as we know, he’s not the only one.Last year, he released a song called ‘Nuevayol’, which featured an imitated Trump voice saying: “I want to apologise to the immigrants in America… This country is nothing without the immigrants. This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, Cubans.”The Puerto Rican star made history this weekend when his album Debí Tirar Más Fotos became the first ever Spanish-language Album of the Year at the Grammys.In his acceptance speech, he said in English: “I want to dedicate this award to all the people that had to leave their homeland, their country, to follow their dreams.”
