"In a series of Facebook posts on Monday, Ogles, who has repeatedly supported anti-LGBTQ+ laws, wrote that "last night's halftime show was a disgrace" and claimed it "mocked American families," adding, "Depicting gay pornography on prime time has no place in our culture." He went further in the same post, arguing that "the Bad Bunny performance is conclusive proof that Puerto Rico should never be a state," a remark that drew immediate backlash online."
"In a longer statement, Ogles said the show was "pure smut, brazenly aired on national television for every American family to witness," and claimed that "children were forced to endure explicit displays of gay sexual acts, women gyrating provocatively, and Bad Bunny shamelessly grabbing his crotch while dry-humping the air." He added that the performance's lyrics "openly glorified sodomy and countless other unspeakable depravities," and asserted that such content is "illegal to be displayed on public airways.""
U.S. Rep. Andy Ogles called for a congressional investigation into the Apple Music Super Bowl LX halftime show headlined by Bad Bunny, alleging explicit sexual content. He posted on Facebook calling the halftime show "a disgrace," saying it "mocked American families," and asserting that "Depicting gay pornography on prime time has no place in our culture." In a longer statement he labeled the show "pure smut," alleged children "were forced to endure explicit displays of gay sexual acts," and said lyrics "openly glorified sodomy." He sent a February 9 letter to Rep. Brett Guthrie requesting an inquiry and argued the NFL and NBCUniversal likely had advance knowledge of the performance.
