Zach Bryan appears to have joined Kacey Musgraves in criticizing Kid Rock and Turning Point USA's All-American Halftime Show.

The event was announced in October. Billed as a family-friendly alternative to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime Show during the big game in Santa Clara, California, on Feb. 8, it also featured Lee Brice, Brantley Gilbert, and Gabby Barrett.
What did the "Something in the Orange" artist have to say about the show? We have the details below.
Zach Bryan Started a Joke
Bryan shared a video on Instagram Stories of a friend watching the All-American Halftime Show on their phone. The singer then used his free hand to block Bad Bunny's performance on the other screen.
The U.S. Navy veteran then captioned the clip with, "What Kid Rock actually thinks is happening across America."
People then slid into Bryan's DMs to respond to his clip.
"We're done with your p***y boy your fall off is inevitable," wrote one user. "I followed you for years but lately I've just proved how much of a f**king f****t you are.
The user added, "I wish your p***y boy a** would've hopped over that fence and let Gavin Adcock whoop your a** cause you definitely deserve one. F**k boy."
Bryan took a screenshot of the message and captioned it with, "Bro the irony in how upset a bunch of middle aged douchebags are in my DMs this morning hahahahah."
Another user wrote, "wtf happens to you? Boy you turned into a Hollywood sell out b***h quick. You were my favorite artist. Now you are nothing but another dumba** out of touch elitist. S**t happens quick homie."
Bryan replied with another screenshot. "I don't care what side you're on, a bunch of adults throwing temper tantrums and their own halftime show is embarrassing as hell and the most cringe s**t on the planet," he wrote in the caption.
Kid Rock Already Responded to the Criticism
Bryan has since deleted the posts.
There was some considerable backlash over the selection of Kid Rock for the All-American Halftime Show. In response to the criticism, the "All Summer Long" post featured a quote from NBA legend Kobe Bryant about his "Mamba Mentality" on Thursday, Feb. 5.
"Learn to love the hate," it read.
Between this and the cancelation of the South Carolina date of his Rock the Country festival, he's probably applying that mindset quite a bit today.
