Bad Bunny Fires Back on SNL as Trump Slams NFL Over Super Bowl Halftime

White House says no concrete ICE plan despite DHS vows.

Overview

  • The NFL and Roc Nation have named Bad Bunny to headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show on Feb. 8, 2026, at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
  • Hosting Saturday Night Live, he delivered a bilingual monologue celebrating Latino contributions and joked, “If you didn’t understand what I just said, you have four months to learn,” after a spoof montage of Fox News clips.
  • Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said ICE would be “all over” the Super Bowl and pledged enforcement, a stance echoed by DHS senior adviser Corey Lewandowski.
  • White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said she was not aware of a “tangible plan” for ICE at the game, leaving operational details unconfirmed.
  • President Donald Trump called the NFL’s selection “absolutely ridiculous” and “crazy,” extending the culture‑war fight over the halftime headliner.
