Before Bad Bunny had even sung a note at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, it was clear that the reggaeton star was not going to be everyone's cup of tea.

The divide over the NFL's choice to headline the Big Game was pretty wide. Turning Point USA even created the All-American Halftime Show, which was headlined by Kid Rock.
The "All Summer Long" artist and President Donald Trump have both offered their takes on the "Moscow Mule" singer's performance. Congressman Andy Ogles, a member of the House of Representatives from Tennessee's 5th congressional district, has also shared his review while demanding an investigation into the show.
The Tennessee Congressman Called the Performance by Bad Bunny "Indecent"
Ogles shared in a letter sent to the chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce that he believes the NFL and NBC had prior knowledge that they were broadcasting a performance he considers "indecent."
He noted the show contained "overtly sexualized movements, including widespread twerking, grinding, pelvic thrusts, and other sexually suggestive conduct."
Most of Bad Bunny's songs were sung in Spanish. However, Ogles said the show "relied on songs whose sexual content remained readily apparently across any language barrier." He also accused the NFL and NBC of failing to implement safeguards to protect viewers.
He requested that the committee look into whether those safeguards "were properly applied or intentionally disregarded."
Ogles Had Stronger Words on Social Media
Ogles shared the letter on social media, revealing how he really felt about Bad Bunny's performance.
"The Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show was pure smut, brazenly aired on national television for every American family to witness. Children were forced to endure explicit displays of gay sexual acts, women gyrating provocatively, and Bad Bunny shamelessly grabbing his crotch while dry-humping the air.
"And if that weren't outrageous enough, the performance's lyrics openly glorified sodomy and countless other unspeakable depravities. These flagrant, indecent acts are illegal to be displayed on public airways.
"That is why I am requesting that the Energy and Commerce Committee launch a formal congressional inquiry into the National Football League and NBC immediately for their prior knowledge, deliberate approval, and facilitation of this indecent broadcast. American culture will not be mocked or corrupted without consequence."
Whether one agrees with Ogles is purely subjective. However, it's not like Bad Bunny accidentally (or purposely) exposed someone's breast (looking at you, Justin Timberlake).
