Quote:Puerto Rican rapper and Saturday Night Live host Bad Bunny brushed off criticism over his upcoming Spanish-only Super Bowl halftime performance, poking fun at right-wing outrage over the decision.

The Grammy-winning artist, who hosted and performed on SNL last night, is set to headline the halftime show at Super Bowl LX in February at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The show will be entirely in Spanish, reports Rolling Stone. The move has sparked complaints from some commentators and politicians.

Among those who took issue with the announcement were Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who both suggested that immigration enforcement agents could be present at the event.

“I have the responsibility for making sure everybody goes to the Super Bowl, has the opportunity to enjoy it and to leave, and that’s what America’s about,” Noem said on The Benny Show. “So yeah, we’ll be all over that place. We’re going to enforce the law.”

Noem added that “people should not be coming to the Super Bowl unless they’re law-abiding Americans who love this country,” appearing to suggest limits on attendance.

Bad Bunny responded to the controversy during his monologue on SNL, joking that “everyone is happy” about his halftime show — “even Fox News.” He then played a fast-cut montage of clips edited to make Fox hosts appear to say: “Bad Bunny. Is. My favorite. Musician. And he should be the next. President.”

He also addressed the fact that his performances are in Spanish, saying, “If you didn’t understand what I just said. You have four months to learn."

The rapper, who previously said his world tour skipped mainland US cities because of immigration policies under former President Donald Trump, hasn’t commented further on the political reaction.

I wish I lacked critical thinking skills. Yall seem so darn happy.

"I wish I lacked critical thinking skills." You do. You also, unfortunately, lack self-awareness.

In his case, he'd have to have a brain in order to feel anything, right? I say he's a bot.

This.

In the last ~20 years, I think there was a couple of times, maybe 3, I got socially trapped into watching and couldn’t get out of it. But I know I haven’t cared about it or wanted to watch it since, roughly, 9/11.

Would be the greatest halftime show ever if ICE went on stage, arrested him, and the gorgeous Kristi Noem looked into the camera and said “adios amigo”

Arrested him for what?

Does not appear to be a wise strategy for whoever is sponsoring the show.

I believe it's Apple.

Eh, the Dude was just trolling the admin because they called him out for being chosen to perform at the SB.

I think he's in the top two or three for most streamed artists. Seems like a wise decision if you're trying to grow your brand.

NFL has been trying to grow the game internationally. They're playing regular season games in Brazil, the UK, Ireland, Germany, and Spain this year. Goodell recently stated that his goal would be for an international game each week of the regular season schedule.

He called this Botox experiment gone wrong "gorgeous." Pretty sure his post was pure satire.

Just as a reminder:

Jay-Z, Beyonce's husband, controls the halftime show a d who gets to perform.

TBH, I was hoping it would be Drake. He could have done a rebuttal performance directed at Kendrick Lamar who called him out in February in New Orleans during his performance.
