Four Acts Named For The TPUSA Alternative Half-Time Show

Turning Point USA (TPUSA) is hosting an alternative halftime show during Super Bowl LX on February 8, 2026, titled the "All-American Halftime Show." 

It's positioned as a patriotic, family-friendly counter-programming option to the official NFL halftime performance headlined by Bad Bunny, amid conservative backlash to that choice.
The talent lineup, announced Monday , features:

• Kid Rock as the headliner (known for his rock-rap fusion hits like "Bawitdaba" and patriotic anthems, often aligning with conservative causes).
• Brantley Gilbert (country rock artist with hits like "Bottoms Up" and "Country Must Be Country Wide").
• Lee Brice (country singer-songwriter famous for tracks such as "I Don't Dance," "Rumor," and "One of Them Girls").
• Gabby Barrett (rising country star and former American Idol contestant, best known for singles like "I Hope" and "The Good Ones").

The event emphasizes themes of faith, family, freedom, and American culture. It will stream live around 8 p.m. ET on TPUSA's YouTube and X channels, plus platforms like OAN News, Daily Wire+, Real America’s Voice, TBN, CHARGE!, The National News Desk, and NTD.com.

This comes after TPUSA announced plans in late 2025 to create the alternative show, following public outcry over the NFL's selection of Bad Bunny. No other performers have been added based on recent reports.
