Gilbert Arenas weighed in on the controversy surrounding President Donald Trump’s decision to deploy ICE agents during Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show. Vlad highlighted the political tension, noting Bad Bunny even canceled his U.S. tour in protest of ICE policies. Despite not supporting Trump or MAGA, Arenas found irony in Trump’s entertainment moves, including his pardons of Black artists and tendency to feature Black music, which he called contradictory to typical racist attitudes. Arenas also reflected on the evolution of Super Bowl halftime shows from afterthoughts to global cultural events, comparing the NFL’s reach to basketball’s worldwide popularity.
