Turning Point USA’s alternative programming for families seeking to escape the often-graphic or politically-charged performance at the upcoming Super Bowl Halftime Show is set to be a showstopper.
The organization on Monday announced its lineup for “The All-American Halftime Show.”
Trump ally and old-school rocker Kid Rock will headline the broadcast, according to TPUSA. The show will also feature performances by Lee Brice, Brantley Gilbert, and Gabby Barrett.
Until this week, TPUSA had kept its lineup under wraps.
“You’re competing with this powerhouse machine called the NFL, you know?” Kid Rock told TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet on “The Charlie Kirk Show.”
“So many of us got tired of just, you know, having Hollywood…shove their agendas and the trans thing and everything down our throats,” he added. “And it’s like, I guess we’re just going to have our own stuff for right now.”
The show will air as an alternative halftime performance online on February 8 during the Super Bowl on networks like Real America’s Voice, OAN, and more.
“Nothing is more powerful than a good song, so if you just stick to playing good songs, that’s the win right there,” Kid Rock said, alluding to a potential faith-based song that he may sing during the show.
TPUSA’s halftime programming was announced last fall, just one month after the assassination of the organization’s founder, Charlie Kirk.
“The All-American Halftime Show is an opportunity for all Americans to enjoy a halftime show with no agenda other than to celebrate faith, family, and freedom,” Mr. Kolvet said in an official statement. “We set out to provide an entertainment option that will be fun, excellent, and exciting for the entire family while millions are gathered together for the big game.”
The TPUSA alternative programming is a direct response to the Super Bowl’s decision to platform Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny as its headlining act. The artist is known for opposing ICE enforcement and supporting other far-left causes.
President Trump said previously that he would not be attending the Super Bowl this year, per RSBN. He noted his distaste at the NFL’s decision to choose Bad Bunny as the halftime performance and the band Green Day as the event’s opener.
“I’m anti-them. I think it’s a terrible choice. All it does is sow hatred. Terrible,” the president remarked.
TPUSA’s exclusive “All-American Halftime Show” will be available to stream on platforms like Rumble, X, and YouTube on Sunday, February 8, at around 8 p.m. EST, per the organization.
