While the Seattle Seahawks defeated the New England Patriots 29–13 on the field, a different controversy unfolded off it. Alongside the NFL’s official halftime show featuring Bad Bunny, Turning Point USA streamed a rival “All-American Halftime Show,” headlined by Kid Rock. The performance quickly drew backlash as many viewers accused the singer of poorly lip-syncing and delivering a brief, underwhelming set. Social media filled with criticism, with some mocking his appearance and questioning the quality of the show. The backlash intensified when old controversial lyrics and past comments resurfaced online. Despite the criticism, some fans praised the performance, and the livestream still attracted millions of viewers, reportedly peaking at around 5 million during the event.
