00:00The NFL announced an additional musical act will play the Super Bowl.
00:04Outspoken critics of the president, Green Day, will play the Super Bowl opening ceremony.
00:09So maybe not the artistic balance some fans may have been hoping for.
00:14Bad Bunny is, of course, the halftime act,
00:16and that announcement not only riled up MAGA loyalists, but Trump himself.
00:20When Mr. Bunny was announced back in October, the president called it absolutely ridiculous.
00:25Green Day is certain to irk Trump as well and his base.
00:30The band's frontman, Billy Joe Armstrong, has previously called the president a fascist
00:34and changed the lyrics of the band's hit song, American Idiot, to ones that trash MAGA.
00:39Now, the big game is being played in Santa Clara, California, and Green Day are from that exact area.
00:45So they're probably chosen because of their hometown roots versus just to annoy the commander-in-chief.
