"Inside us all, there are two Jake Pauls. One, so overwhelmed with love and pride for his fiancée that he bursts into ugly sobs on live television. The other, so overwhelmed by his own saucelessness that he comes out against the Bad Bunny Halftime show-only to then claim he was hacked after everyone (including his own brother) clowns him online."
"Purposefully turning off the halftime show Let's rally together and show big corporations they can't just do whatever they want without consequences (which equals viewership for them) You are their benefit. Realize you have power. Turn off this halftime. A fake American... - Jake Paul (@jakepaul) February 8, 2026"
"Boo! Hiss! Bad Jake Paul! The internet immediately comes out against him, swiftly adding a community note to the post clarifying that Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917 and that Paul, who moved to Puerto Rico three years ago to avoid paying taxes, is also still a U.S. citizen."
Jake Paul displayed two contrasting public behaviors: an emotional, tearful side and a contrarian, attention-seeking side. He posted a tweet urging people to turn off the Bad Bunny halftime show, framing it as a protest against corporate influence and viewership. The tweet used the phrase "A fake American," prompting swift online backlash that noted Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917 and highlighted Paul's move to Puerto Rico three years earlier to reduce tax liability. Logan Paul and other online users mocked him. Jake Paul then attempted to clarify and retract the comment, claiming misinterpretation and later suggesting a hack.
