Megyn Kelly is the latest conservative voice to unload on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show—and this time, the fireworks happened live opposite Piers Morgan.
During an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Kelly blasted the Puerto Rican superstar’s all-Spanish performance, arguing it missed the mark for what she believes the Super Bowl should represent. Morgan, who previously praised the show as one of the best halftime performances he has seen, pushed back.
Kelly did not hold back.
She argued that performing the entire set in Spanish alienated much of the country, claiming the Super Bowl is meant to unify Americans, not spotlight one cultural group. While acknowledging the large Spanish-speaking population in the U.S., she insisted that the majority of Americans do not speak Spanish and should not feel excluded from the biggest sporting event of the year.
The debate escalated when Morgan pointed out that the United States has no official language. Kelly initially claimed English holds that status before conceding it is not formally designated at the federal level.
She went further, tying the halftime show to broader cultural concerns and warning against what she framed as a loss of national identity. Her comments quickly drew reaction online, with supporters applauding her bluntness and critics accusing her of dismissing millions of Americans.
Kelly also referenced Bad Bunny’s past political positions, suggesting that entertainers chosen for the halftime stage should align more closely with what she considers traditional American values.
The exchange between Kelly and Morgan has since circulated widely across social media, adding yet another layer of political tension to a halftime show that has already sparked days of debate.
As for Bad Bunny, the performance itself has generally received strong reviews from critics and fans. But if recent reactions are any indication, the cultural conversation surrounding it is far from over.
