Millions of Americans turned the channel during the Super Bowl to watch Turning Point USA’s alternative “All American Halftime Show” as the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks faced off Sunday in Super Bowl LX. More than 19 million streamed the show on YouTube, with 2 million more watching on Rumble, not to mention all the viewers watching across other platforms.
In the game itself, the Seattle Seahawks used a crushing defense to defeat the New England Patriots, 29-13, capturing their second NFL championship in the club’s history.
Many people were upset that the NFL’s Super Bowl halftime show on February 8 would star Bad Bunny, a music artist known for flaunting sexuality who once dressed in drag during the Grammy Awards.

Christian sports commentator Jon Root panned the Bad Bunny performance, pointing out, “Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime performance was pure filth… According to the Apple Music set list, he sang a song called, ‘Safaera’, which means debauchery in Puerto Rican slang. The translation of the lyrics to the English are so incredibly vile, profanely describing…debaucherous actions. During this song, two men were grinding on each other on screen. Shame on you, NFL for promoting this.”
To provide a more patriotic, family-friendly alternative, TPUSA announced a lineup of four performers:
- Kid Rock
- Brantley Gilbert
- Lee Brice
- Gabby Barrett
During the show, Kid Rock challenged the TPUSA viewers to pick up their Bibles and give their hearts to Jesus Christ. Watch that clip here:
While many people recognize Kid Rock, the other three artists are country singers who might be less famous, but they are each known to be devoted Christians.
