The Paul brothers are divided over the Super Bowl halftime show.
Famed internet personalities Logan and Jake Paul took to X Sunday night to debate Bad Bunny’s performance at Super Bowl 60, clashing over the powerful imagery the Latin superstar opted to employ in his celebrity-studded set.
“Purposefully turning off the halftime show,” Jake Paul, 29, wrote on the platform. “Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences (which equals viewership for them) You are their benefit.
“Realize you have power. Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America. I cannot support that,” he continued. Bad Bunny, who sang mostly in Spanish during the performance, was born in Puerto Rico, which is part of the U.S.
In response, Logan, 30, replied to the post, writing: “I love my brother but I don’t agree with this Puerto Ricans are Americans & I’m happy they were given the opportunity to showcase the talent that comes from the island.”
Logan and Jake, both influencers-turned-professional boxers, represent just one of the many offering strong opinions about Bad Bunny’s performance. While the younger Paul joins a legion of conservative voices who took issue with the choice of Bad Bunny as a headliner in the first place, scores of other celebrities reacted positively to Sunday’s show.
“Well. That made me feel more proudly American than anything Kid Rock has ever done,” country star Kacey Musgraves wrote on X, name-checking the star of Turning Point USA’s alternative halftime programming.
“I don’t know if I’ll ever recover from that… WHAT👏🏾A👏🏾SHOW👏🏾,” Kerry Washington wrote on Threads. “That performance was the epitome of LOVE. And a wise man once said ‘the only thing more powerful than hate is LOVE’ 🐰🇵🇷🏈.”
Camila Cabello also chimed in, writing in Spanish: “That’s right! @badbunnypr Long live our beautiful Latin culture!!! And congratulations, Benito”
John Mellencamp added his praise, writing on social media: “I don’t know what Bad Bunny is saying, however, I do know he is standing up for Puerto Rico and I am standing up for him. His half time show was great.”
