TPUSAs All-American halftime show draws…
Millions tuned into Turning Point USA’s “All-American” halftime show headlined by Kid Rock and held in honor of its slain co-founder Charlie Kirk — which was streamed as an different to the official Super Bowl halftime show that includes Spanish-speaking singer Bad Bunny.
The conservative nonprofit’s hour-long spectacle, which began minutes before the Super Bowl LX halftime show, was backed by the Trump administration and scores of conservative hubs that cross-aired the efficiency.
TPUSA scrambled to arrange a rival halftime live performance in October after Bad Bunny remarked that anybody peeved by his choice as Super Bowl headliner had “four months to learn Spanish” and perceive his music.

The different show was a celebration of the USA with lyrics honoring blue-collar employees and the pink, white and blue as effectively as a tribute to Kirk.
“This one’s for you, Charlie!” Jack Posobiec, a TPUSA host, said at the start of the show.
Country musicians Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice and Gabby Barrett all carried out at the show, flanked by TPUSA’s signature pyrotechnics.
More than 5 million viewers tuned into TPUSA’s YouTube livestream during the performances.
Kid Rock opened with a rousing rendition of “America the Beautiful” on an electric guitar.
He was adopted by Gilbert, who cycled through two songs from his discography.
Barrett adopted with her hit music “I Hope” before swapping with Brice, who carried out “Drinking Class” and “Cry.”
Kid Rock finally graced the stage after a half-hour. The precise Super Bowl LX halftime show TPUSA was looking for to compete with had already concluded by then.

He launched into a gentle rendition of Cody Johnson’s “‘Til You Can’t” while attendees waved their light-up wristbands in the air, mimicking flashlights.
The performances concluded close to 9 p.m. with an in memoriam to Kirk.
Kirk recurrently spent his Super Bowl Sundays weighing in on the halftime show — in half because he acknowledged it was a core method to “win the culture,” his close pal told The Post last week.
The Super Bowl show was slammed by President Trump minutes later.
“The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER! It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
“Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World,” he added in reference to the Puerto Rican singer and rapper.
