Charlie Sheen and Bill Maher are facing renewed backlash after resurfaced comments.

The duo questioned Bad Bunny’s place at the Super Bowl halftime show while openly admitting they had never heard his music.

The remarks came from an October 2025 episode of Maher’s Club Random podcast where Sheen argued the NFL needed to “figure out the halftime show” and deliver “something that the diehard fans really want, as far as musically.”

When Maher asked if that was “a backhanded slight to Bad Bunny” Sheen replied bluntly: “Yeah. I mean, there’s bands, there’s acts, there’s just people that I think are more germane to the experience of the game, of that moment, of that particular game. It’s the biggest game in the universe.”

Maher echoed the sentiment while conceding his own unfamiliarity.

“I’m sure Mr. Bunny is wonderful,” he said.

“I mean, it’s a reflection on me that I don’t know his work as well as I can, but I’m of a different era. I was hoping the halftime show would be Eddie Rabbit.”

The clip resurfaced on Super Bowl Sunday just days after Bad Bunny capped one of the most dominant runs in modern music history.

On February 1 Bad Bunny became the first performer in Grammys history to win Album of the Year for a Spanish-language album.

Accepting the award he dedicated it to immigrants “who had to leave their homeland, their country, to follow their dreams.”

Earlier that night he declared: “ICE out. We’re not savage. We’re not animals. We’re not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans.”

Later today he headlines the Super Bowl LX halftime show at Levi’s Stadium becoming the first solo Latino and Spanish-language artist to do so in front of an estimated 130 million viewers.

Sheen’s argument hinged on serving “diehard fans” despite the NFL reporting more than 39 million Latino fans in the US and calling future growth “mathematically impossible without Latinos.”
