What started as a ceremonial performance quickly turned into one of the most talked-about highlights of Super Bowl 2026.

Accompanied by an all-Black group of violinists and cellists, the music began with a brief instrumental that set a deeply emotional tone.

Why Bad Bunny won’t be paid at all for his incredible Super Bowl halftime show

  Bad Bunny may have just delivered one of the most memorable Super Bowl halftime shows in recent memory, but he won’t be walking away with a sack of money one could argue he deserves. That’s because Super Bowl halftime performers, irrespective of how big a name they are, don’t get paid for what is essentially a stadium show. Any experienced artist will tell you of the old “exposure” trick, wherein someone wanting them to play has offered them the chance to get “great exposure”, instead of paying them money for their time and skill. Usually it’s seen as being nothing short of a con – and not a subtle one – but in this instance, since the Super Bowl draws the eyes of millions and the attention of much of the world, I suppose there’s an argument to be made that “exposure” really is a thing. As originally reported by NME, NFL covers all production and travel costs for whichever artist is performing the Super Bowl’s halftime show. This means that while Bad Bunny won’t necessarily be ri...

Kid Rock mocked as fans all make same complaint during All-American halftime show

  The Seattle Seahawks may have handled business on the field, beating the New England Patriots 29–13 at Levi’s Stadium, but off the field, a very different showdown was unfolding. Led by Kid Rock This Super Bowl Sunday, America didn’t get one halftime show, it got two. While the NFL’s official halftime spotlight went to global sensation Bad Bunny, millions of viewers switched over to Turning Point USA’s rival “All-American Halftime Show”. Kid Rock, 55, closed out the conservative-backed livestream after performances from Brantley Gilbert, Lee Brice, and Gabby Barrett. The event was billed as a cultural alternative to the NFL’s mainstage spectacle. But within seconds of taking the stage, viewers began pointing out the same issue. Many accused the rocker of lip-syncing. “Nice lip syncing,” one viewer wrote. “Did Kid Rock just badly lip sync through his song? Or was my stream messed up?” another asked. “So was that a bad lip sync job by Kid Rock? Or was my stream messed up? Thank you...

New twist emerges in ICE killing of Renee Nicole Good

  The fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis has erupted into a national firestorm. Now, a wild new twist is reshaping the debate over federal power, law enforcement, and civil rights. ”Drive, baby, drive — drive!” On Jan. 7, 37-year-old Good was driving her SUV in Minneapolis with her wife and dog when Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer Jonathan Ross opened fire, killing her. Video footage from multiple angles shows Good turning her steering wheel as Ross stood near the front left side of her car. Three shots rang out: one at the windshield, two at the side window. Good was struck and pronounced dead at a local hospital.

Columbo actor Peter Falk “couldn’t remember” his award-winning role near the end of his life

  Crumpled raincoat-wearing ‘Columbo’ is one of the most famous TV detectives of our time; he never failed to leave us on the edge of our seats. Just when you thought the bad guy might get away with it, the cigar-smoking super sleuth would show up with just “one nagging detail” that he couldn’t let go. Throughout the 70s the show featured on prime-time television and was then shown less frequently from the late 80s right up to 2003. For years TV detectives had always been a cut above the criminal masterminds they pursued but Columbo turned that stereotype on its head as a shrewd but scruffy blue-collar homicide detective who outwitted the most influential and wealthy of criminals. The much-loved detective, who became a household name around the globe, earned actor Peter Falk four Emmy awards for his work on the show. But behind all the success and fame, there was also another side of Peter Falk. At least if we should believe authors Richard Lertzman and William Birnes, who wrote th...

I Found a Diamond Ring on a Supermarket Shelf and Returned It to Its Owner — the Next Day, a Man in a Mercedes Showed Up at My Door

  When a widowed father of four finds a diamond ring in a grocery store aisle, he makes a choice that costs him nothing but means everything. What follows is a quiet, powerful reminder that, in a world full of struggle, honesty still matters. And sometimes, life gives back in the most unexpected way. It started with a knock at the door and a man in a suit standing beside a black Mercedes. That morning, I'd packed lunches with one hand and unclogged the kitchen sink with the other. Grace was crying about a lost teddy. Lily was upset about her crooked braid. And Max was drizzling maple syrup onto the floor for our dog. So no, I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary. My name is Lucas, and I'm 42. I'm a widower and an exhausted father of four. Two years ago, just after our youngest, Grace, was born, my wife Emma was diagnosed with cancer. At first, we thought it was just exhaustion, the kind you laugh about six months later when the baby finally sleeps through the n...
