Right-wing commentator and former Fox News host Megyn Kelly threw an epic tantrum over Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance during an interview with Piers Morgan on Monday.

Kelly declared that the Puerto Rican Grammy winner performing in Spanish was “a middle finger to the rest of America.”

“Who gives a damn that we have 40 million Spanish speakers in the United States?” she ranted. “We have 310 million who don’t speak a lick of Spanish.”

Kelly got louder and angrier as she continued. “This is supposed to be a unifying event for the country, not for the Latinos, not for one small group, but for the country. We don’t need a Black national anthem. We don’t need a Spanish-speaking non-English performer. And we don’t need an ICE or America hater featured as our primetime entertainment.”

She was also annoyed that Morgan brought up the fact that the United States doesn’t actually have an official language, save for a March 2025 executive order by the president.

“You ceded your culture to a bunch of radical Muslims who came in and took over and now it’s gone,” Kelly told Morgan, who is British. “We’re not allowing that here. Whether it’s Hispanic, whether it’s Muslim, it’s not happening in the United States of America. That’s why President Trump was elected. And whether it’s Bad Bunny, who is American but refuses to speak English in his performances, or anybody else, we have to keep the Super Bowl, which is a quintessential American event.”

“Football, that kind of football is ours!” she yelled, presumably referring to white people. “They call it American football.”

She also made a bizarre declaration that everything around football should be “good old-fashioned American apple pie.”

“There should be a meatloaf. Maybe some fried chicken, and an English-speaking performer. That’s what the Super Bowl should be.”

She also ranted about how Bad Bunny sometimes wears dresses and slammed him for being anti-Trump, anti-ICE, and for hanging out with “Jay-Z and his Epstein-loving pals,” despite the fact that Donald Trump was best friends with Jeffrey Epstein.
