"The numbers keep updating ... as of now we're up to 20 million views across just social [media], we haven't even gotten our partner broadcasters' numbers ... it blew our minds, so we are going to commit to doing this again next year. We're gonna do another halftime show for the country next year..." -Andrew Kolvet, Turning Point USA

[CBN News] Millions of Americans turned the channel during the Super Bowl to watch Turning Point USA's alternative "All American Halftime Show" as the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks faced off Sunday in Super Bowl LX. More than 19 million streamed the show on YouTube, with 2 million more watching on Rumble, not to mention all the viewers watching across other platforms. (Screengrab image: via X-Eric Daugherty)

In the game itself, the Seattle Seahawks used a crushing defense to defeat the New England Patriots, 29-13, capturing their second NFL championship in the club's history.

Many people were upset that the NFL's Super Bowl halftime show on February 8 would star Bad Bunny, a music artist known for flaunting sexuality who once dressed in drag during the Grammy Awards.

Christian sports commentator Jon Root panned the Bad Bunny performance, pointing out, "Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Halftime performance was pure filth... According to the Apple Music set list, he sang a song called, 'Safaera', which means debauchery in Puerto Rican slang. The translation of the lyrics to the English are so incredibly vile, profanely describing...debaucherous actions. During this song, two men were grinding on each other on screen. Shame on you, NFL for promoting this."

To provide a more patriotic, family-friendly alternative, TPUSA announced a lineup of four performers:

"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," TPUSA spokesman Andrew Kolvet said.

During the show, Kid Rock challenged the TPUSA viewers to pick up their Bibles and give their hearts to Jesus Christ. Watch that clip here:

While many people recognize Kid Rock, the other three artists are country singers who might be less famous, but they are each known to be devoted Christians.

Brantley Gilbert frequently incorporates his faith into his music and public life. He often discusses how his faith in God is a major part of his life and songwriting, as well as his role as a husband and father.

He wrote on X when he released his album "Tattoos" that the songs "highlight everything from my faith to my family to everyday life and give a snapshot as to where I am right now as a husband, a father, and just a man."

One example of his faith-based content is his song "My Faith In You," where he refers to reading the Bible: "That's why I'm thumbing through these pages, They say the answers are in red...  And I'm still asking You for help, Because Lord I just can't help myself..."

Gabby Barrett is an outspoken Christian who seeks to put her faith, family, and a Godly marriage first, before her career. She released a Christian single called "Jesus on a Train," and often shares how her beliefs guide her life. (Screengrab image: via X-Eric Daugherty)

And finally, Lee Brice also calls himself a "follower of King Jesus" and urges fans to find a Bible-believing church.

Brice holds a special connection to TPUSA after he wrote a tribute to Charlie Kirk in the wake of his assassination. Here's that song, which talks about "some iron nails and a wooden cross," and it's all about The Kingdom of God coming to earth. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
