Bad Bunny's Kamala Harris Support Sparks Right-Wing Backlash
Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny has sparked controversy after publicly supporting Democrat Kamala Harris in the 2024 US presidential elections. His decision has drawn criticism from right-wing figures and Trump supporters, with some attacking both the singer and the NFL on social media.
Bad Bunny, known for challenging traditional genre norms and pushing boundaries with his style, has been a vocal advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights and against prejudice. His support for Harris and his upcoming performance at the Estádio da Luz in Lisbon on May 26, 2026, have further fueled debates.
Right-wing content producer Jack Posobiec criticized Bad Bunny's performance decision, while Vice-Assistant to the President of the USA, Sébastien Gorka, accused the NFL of not reading the room. Conservative MAGA movement content producers have also joined the backlash.
The Super Bowl halftime show, produced by Roc Nation since 2019, has seen Bad Bunny's performance leave Trump supporters indignant. The next Super Bowl is scheduled for February 8, 2024, in Santa Clara, California.
Bad Bunny's political stance and artistic choices have ignited a firestorm of criticism from right-wing figures and Trump supporters. Despite the backlash, the singer continues to advocate for his beliefs and will take the stage at the Super Bowl halftime show, adding another layer to the ongoing political and cultural debates.
