Meanwhile, Turning Point USA announced its alternative event would air simultaneously with the official broadcast. The lineup includes Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett. Kid Rock described the effort as a “David and Goliath” challenge, contrasting their show with the NFL’s major production. Public reaction has been mixed. Some supporters praised the alternative lineup, while many online critics questioned its cultural relevance and messaging.

Others doubted whether the event would attract younger viewers and pointed out the contrast between its “family values” image and the background of some performers. As Super Bowl LX approaches, the debate highlights broader divisions around entertainment, language, and identity. Whether audiences choose the official halftime show or the alternative broadcast, the discussion itself has already become part of the event’s spotlight.
