Donald Trump on Monday fumed about the selection of Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny as the headline act for the upcoming Super Bowl LX halftime show.Newsmax’s Greg Kelly said to Trump in a phone interview on Monday:“The NFL just chose Bad Bunny Rabbit or whatever his name. This guy who hates ICE, he doesn’t like you, he accuses everything he doesn’t like of racism. Do you think maybe we should just kinda entertain blowing off the NFL like a boycott or something along those lines? This guy does not seem like a unifying entertainer and a lot of folks don’t even know who he is.”Trump first claimed he’d “never heard of” the rapper.“I don’t know who he is,” he added.But then the president appeared to show some knowledge of him and the situation, saying: “I don’t know why they are doing it. It’s like crazy, and then they blame it on some promoter that they hired to pick up entertainment. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous.” Jay-Z’s Roc Nation is behind the show each year.Trump then went off on a tangent to complain about the NFL’s new kickoff rule. He said: “And while we’re at it, I’d like them to change the kickoff rule, which looks ridiculous where the ball is kicked and the ball is floating in the air and everyone is standing there watching it. It’s ridiculous. It’s not any safer than the regular kickoff. I think it. It just looks so terrible. I think it really demeans football to be honest with you. It’s a great game but it demeans football. You know what I mean by that? The kickoff rule? The new kickoff rule? It’s ridiculous.”Watch from the 6:40 point here:The White House, meanwhile, used one of its X accounts to call the star a “loser.”.@POTUS on loser @sanbenito (aka "Bad Bunny") and the NFL: "I've never heard of him. I don't know who he is... I think it's absolutely ridiculous — and while we're at it, I'd like to change the kickoff rule." 🤣 pic.twitter.com/zrksEJvqVc— Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) October 7, 2025Close
