"It's 250 years that we're celebrating right now in the United States, and I just don't think it was appropriate to have it in Spanish. I don't speak Spanish. I would've liked to know the words he was saying."
"In light of recent public comments made by Jill Zarin, Blink49 Studios has decided not to move forward with her involvement in The Golden Life. We remain committed to delivering the series in line with our company standards and values."
Jill Zarin posted a now-deleted Instagram video condemning Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime performance, calling it the worst halftime show and criticizing the use of Spanish. She said she did not speak Spanish and viewed the performance as a political statement tied to ICE, and claimed there were no white performers despite Lady Gaga's appearance. The video went viral and caused immediate backlash. Blink49 Studios dropped Zarin from the upcoming E! docuseries The Golden Life, which was set to feature other former Real Housewives of New York City cast members. Filming is expected to begin in South Florida this spring, with no release date announced.
