“Absolutely terrible,” wrote Donald Trump about Grammy winner Bad Bunny’s performance during the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show. The U.S. president wrote a long post about his outrage on Truth Social.
Bad Bunny’s halftime show was held at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Sunday (February 8).
“It makes no sense, it’s an affront to the Greatness of America, and it doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence,” Trump continued.
Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio, is a Puerto Rican singer. Puerto Rico is an unincorporated territory of the U.S.
“No one understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for little kids watching all over the U.S. and around the world,” the Republican criticized.
The Grammy winner performed several songs from his album “DtMF,” which celebrates Latin American countries and criticizes Donald Trump. The show featured appearances by Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.
“There’s nothing inspiring about this messy halftime show, and watch, he’ll get great reviews from the Fake News Media because they have no idea what’s going on in the REAL WORLD,” Trump continued.
Donald Trump criticized the selection of Bad Bunny for the halftime show in October 2025.
“I’ve never heard of him,” Trump said at the time about the Puerto Rican musician. “I don’t know who he is.”
