Roger Goodell stands firm on Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show after Trump calls selection 'ridiculous'

The co-hosts of "The View" praised the NFL's decision to tap Bad Bunny as this season's Super Bowl halftime performer and lauded it as a good business decision.

The NFL remains committed to have Bad Bunny perform during the Super Bowl LX halftime show, Commissioner Roger Goodell said Wednesday.

Goodell addressed the controversy surrounding the Grammy-winning Puerto Rican artist, some of which comes from President Donald Trump, at the annual Fall League Meeting on Wednesday. This was the first time Goodell discussed the choice of Bad Bunny, though the backlash is nothing new for him.

"It’s carefully thought through," Goodell said of the decision-making process for the halftime show. "I’m not sure we’ve ever selected an artist where we didn’t have some blowback or criticism. It’s pretty hard to do when you have literally hundreds of millions of people that are watching."
