Turning Point USA (TPUSA) recently announced an alternative halftime show for the 2026 Super Bowl, positioning it as a cultural counterpoint to the official performance by Bad Bunny. The organization said its event, called “The All-American Halftime Show,” was designed to celebrate traditional values while giving viewers another entertainment option during one of the most-watched moments of the year.

The alternative lineup includes Kid Rock as the headliner, along with Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett. TPUSA promoted the show as a livestream event scheduled to air at the same time as the official halftime performance, hoping to attract audiences who preferred a different style of music and messaging than the main broadcast.

However, TPUSA later shared an update that affected how viewers could watch. According to a post on its official X account, licensing restrictions prevented the show from being streamed on that platform. Instead, the organization directed viewers to its YouTube channel, encouraging them to tune in around 8 p.m. Eastern Time to watch the full performance live.

The update drew mixed reactions online. Some people said the announcement should have included a direct link to make viewing easier, while others questioned the planning behind the last-minute change. Despite the criticism, TPUSA continues to promote the event as an alternative entertainment option for Super Bowl viewers who want something different during halftime.
