Kid Rock<\/a> has been confirmed to headline Turning Point USA\u2019s alternative halftime show at the Super Bowl on February 8th, 2026.<\/p>\n Those in the Levi\u2019s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, will be entertained before the game by rock legends Green Day, before Grammy-winning superstar Bad Bunny will take to the stage at halftime.<\/p>\n Notably, both Green Day and Bad Bunny have been vocal critics of the Trump administration, as well as the ongoing ICE operations in the United States, which led to a backlash from conservatives in the United States.<\/p>\n After Bad Bunny was confirmed as the headliner, Trump described it as a \u201ccrazy\u201d decision, as well as admitting that he had not heard a note of his music.<\/p>\n Then, last week, Trump said he was \u201canti-them\u201d<\/a> in reference to Bad Bunny and Green Day. He also confirmed he would not be in attendance for the sporting occasion.<\/p>\n Additionally, Turning Point USA, founded by the late Charlie Kirk, announced its plans for an alternative Super Bowl halftime show, and now, they have officially revealed their lineup.<\/p>\n The concert, which has been billed as the All-American Halftime Show, will feature Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice and Gabby Barrett.<\/p>\n In addition to being broadcast on Turning Point USA\u2019s social media channels, it will also be shown on Daily Wire+, Real America\u2019s Voice and One America News Network.<\/p>\n In a statement, Kid Rock said about his upcoming performance, \u201cWe\u2019re approaching this show like David and Goliath. Competing with the pro football machine and a global pop superstar is almost impossible \u2026 or is it?\u201d<\/p>\n Kid Rock did previously make an appearance at the actual Super Bowl halftime show in 2004, when he guested alongside Nelly on \u2018Hot in Here\u2019.<\/p>\n Notably, the Super Bowl will arrive exactly a week after Bad Bunny<\/a> had an unforgettable night at the Grammys, winning three awards, including the prestigious \u2018Album of the Year\u2019.<\/p>\n After winning \u2018Best M\u00fasica Urbana Album\u2019, he delivered a message to those in attendance, \u201cBefore I say thanks to god, I\u2019m going to say, ICE out.\u201d He added, \u201cWe\u2019re not savages, we\u2019re not animals, we are humans, and we are Americans.\u201d<\/p>\n He also urged his supporters, \u201cThe hate gets more powerful with more hate, the only thing that is more powerful than hate is love, so please we need to be different. If we fight, we have to do it with love,\u201d before adding, \u201cWe don\u2019t hate them, we love our people, and we love our family. We love, don\u2019t forget that please.\u201d<\/p>\n THE LINEUP FOR THE ALL-AMERICAN HALFTIME SHOW IS HERE! \ud83d\udd25<\/p>\n Watch Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett THIS SUNDAY \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 pic.twitter.com\/xwurEhdB13<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Turning Point USA (@TPUSA) February 2, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n View Tweet<\/p>\n Related Topics<\/p>\n The Far Out Music Newsletter<\/p>\n All the latest music news from the independent voice of culture. \n
