More than 135 million viewers tuned in for rapper Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show at Super Bowl LX, which included a performance from singer Lady Gaga on February 8.

Political commentator Jon Stewart, 63, trashed a group of Fox News guests and hosts after they poked jabs at Bad Bunny’s Halftime Show during Super Bowl LX.
During the CBS broadcast on February 8, the Halftime Show from the Puerto Rican sensation became the must-see act at the NFL event. His Halftime Show smashed the record for the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show in history with more than 135 million viewers tuning in. Not everyone was a fan of the show, which featured performances from Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin, as well as surprise cameos from Pedro Pascal, Cardi B, and Jessica Alba.
Following the Super Bowl event, during Fox News‘ broadcast of One Nation, host Brian Kilmeade invited radio personality Sid Rosenberg and Clay Travis, founder of OutKick, to voice their criticism of Bad Bunny’s performance.
At first, during Comedy Central’s broadcast of The Daily Show on February 9, Stewart came to the defense of the Spanish-speaking singer.
The host said, “Bad Bunny came out there and was, as they say in Puerto Rico, quite good! Mister Bunny killed it! Despite being trapped in an inescapable sugar cane hedge maze.”
“It was joyful and infectious,” he pointed out before playing a clip from One Nation.

Rosenberg ranted, “Truly it was a bad football game, and when you couple that with Bad Bunny, who may have been the worst halftime show – not one word of English, not one word of English, one word!”
“You combine the halftime show and the football game, I think Clay would agree, he’s a great sports guy too. What a waste of three hours,” he finished.
Stewart roasted Rosenberg and his English remarks, “Here’s some English for you! Who put Thanos over here in the air fryer? Did Fox decide they needed an actual Buffalo wing to comment on the game?
“Dude, seriously, we all like to get sun, but I mean, I’m no dermatologist, but– be there tomorrow morning as early as you can be there,” he zinged.
“It’s like the guy’s couch is one of those chicken rotisseries. He’s watching the game like, ‘Tell me if I miss anything!’” mocked Stewart before he spun in his chair.
“Seriously, like how many glizzies do you gobble before you become one?” he asked.

Also on February 9, Fox News host Laura Ingraham didn’t hold back on her criticism as well, slamming Bad Bunny’s performance.
Ingraham blasted, “If you want to blame anyone for this, again, don’t blame Bad Bunny. He is who he is, someone most people watching had never heard of before he was booked to do the Super Bowl.
“He’s just another entertainer who got very rich off the American consumer, but then turns around and trashes the country when he doesn’t like the president,” she continued.
“He’s an anti-American radical who canceled his U.S. shows because he is supposedly afraid of ICE. What a phony. Unless that is he’s worried that his concerts attract vilent illegal alien gang bangers or rapists. But again, don’t blame him,” she finished.
Fox News viewers also came to Bad Bunny’s defense online, criticizing Ingraham’s comments.
One viewer argued, “This went from ‘I don’t like his music’ to ‘everyone who attends his shows is a criminal’ in one sentence. That escalation says way more than the accusation.”
Another slammed, “The man is about love. If you find hate that’s on you, not him.”
