Nairobi, February 9- President Donald Trump, who did not attend the Super Bowl and instead watched from a gathering in Florida, strongly condemned Bad Bunny\u2019s halftime show, calling it \u201ca slap in the face\u201d and claiming viewers could not understand the Puerto Rican artist\u2019s lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Posting on Truth Social, Trump described the halftime show as one of the worst ever, saying it lacked meaning and failed to reflect what he called America\u2019s values of success, creativity, and excellence. He argued that the performance did not match the country\u2019s achievements and progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Mart\u00ednez Ocasio, headlined the halftime show on Sunday with a set featuring some of his most popular tracks, striking visuals, and dramatic references to themes and symbols from his Spanish-language music catalog. The show also included guest appearances by major stars such as Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the performance, the singer shared a message of unity, broadening the phrase \u201cGod bless America\u201d to refer to the entire American continent, mentioning countries from Canada to Chile. He named more than 20 nations across North and South America while their flags appeared on screen, and stood next to both the US and Puerto Rican flags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also showcased a football printed with the words \u201cTogether we are America.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump further criticized the show\u2019s language and dance routines, saying the lyrics were incomprehensible and describing the choreography as inappropriate, especially for children watching in the US and worldwide. His reaction was consistent with earlier remarks in which he had already labeled Bad Bunny a poor choice for the halftime performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
