President Donald Trump has also taken issue with the halftime act and confirmed he will not be present at Levi’s Stadium this evening

Jake Paul has urged fans not to tune in to Bad Bunny’s halftime performance on Sunday as the New England Patriots take on the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl 60.

Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny secured the coveted half-time slot back in September, but the reception to the appointment has been far from unanimous excitement.

Paul, who recently lost his much-anticipated bout to Anthony Joshua, is not in attendance in Santa Clara as the boxer is with his fiancée, Jutta Leerdam, at the Winter Olympics in Italy.

Making his feelings clear on social media, the social media star branded the rapper a “fake American” and claimed he would turn off the broadcast when the Puerto Rican began his act.

Paul wrote: “Purposefully turning off the halftime show.

“Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences (which equals viewership for them).

President Donald Trump has also taken issue with the halftime act.

He has confirmed he will not be present at Levi’s Stadium this evening.

Speaking about rapper Bad Bunny and punk band Green Day, Mr Trump said: “I’m anti-them.

“I think it’s a terrible choice. All it does is sow hatred.”

This marks a departure from last year, when Trump attended the championship game in New Orleans and watched the Philadelphia Eagles secure a comfortable victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

The president cited the journey to California as his primary reason for staying away.

“It’s just too far away,” he told the New York Post last month.

Bad Bunny has been outspoken in criticising immigration policies, including remarks at the recent Grammy Awards, whilst Green Day have similarly declined to show support for the President.

Logan Paul, Jake’s brother, also showed his opposition to the halftime show act.

When asked by Fox News if he was excited to watch Bad Bunny perform, the WWE star made his stance clear, replying simply “no.”

Conservative organisation Turning Point USA has arranged an alternative halftime show featuring Kid Rock and other performers, which President Trump is expected to tune into from his Palm Beach residence.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters on Thursday: “I think the President would much prefer a Kid Rock performance over Bad Bunny, I must say that.”
