The Super Bowl’s halftime show this Sunday is set to feature performances by Bad Bunny and Green Day, which has sparked some controversy among certain American audiences. Bad Bunny is known for his outspoken political views, often criticizing the Trump administration and ICE, while Green Day is famously vocal about their political stances.
These choices have raised eyebrows, as they don’t exactly embody the spirit of unity typically associated with one of the nation’s most celebrated events.

Many viewers might opt to skip the halftime show in favor of other activities. However, aside from the football action, the commercials are another major draw. Companies spend millions for a brief 30 or 60-second spot to capture the attention of the vast Super Bowl audience.
This year, a particular advertisement is likely to stir up controversy, as it addresses alternatives to abortion for those facing an unplanned pregnancy, which may not sit well with some viewers.
This year, the abortion crowd is sure to be screaming at their flatscreens because of a spot that dares to say there are alternatives to aborting your baby should you have an unwanted pregnancy.
It’s poignant, as former college swim star turned activist Riley Gaines noted:
New Super Bowl ad just dropped reminding women facing unexpected pregnancies that adoption is an option.
Rarely do we see an ad like this, especially during the Super Bowl. If one woman sees this & decides not to terminate her baby, then it’s worth every penny spent @LiveAction pic.twitter.com/6UexoJ4O3E

The group behind the spot, Adoption Is, posted to their website about the message they wanted to convey:
During Super Bowl LX, millions of Americans will see a powerful ad reminding our country that adoption is a real and compassionate option.
An unplanned pregnancy can feel overwhelming. Questions about the future, finances, stability, and readiness are real—and deeply personal. For some women, parenting may not be possible in that moment. Adoption offers another path: one that honors both mother and child, surrounds women with care and support, and opens the door to a future shaped by love, courage, and dignity.
Adoption is not giving up. It is choosing hope and life-giving love.

They also pointed out that to some, adoption is still a stigma.
Adoption is often misunderstood. Stigma, fear, judgment, and a lack of information often stand in the way of women who might otherwise choose this path. At the same time, thousands of families are ready to parent and waiting to adopt. And, birth mothers deserve dignity, respect, and support, before, during, and after placement should they choose it.
Lila Rose, the founder of the pro-life group Live Action, reacted by saying women who carry their babies to term should be celebrated, even if they are unable to raise the child themselves:
Adoption multiplies love.
When a mother courageously carries her baby to term and entrusts him to a family ready to offer care, stability, & a future, it becomes a profound act of sacrificial love—one that deserves to be honored & celebrated. https://t.co/zAcnSuSiWh

It’s a powerful ad, one which will doubtless prove emotional to many people and make some think about their positions. There is an alternative to abortion, and it’s a beautiful one that has saved many lives.
If you have a liberal relative nearby when it runs, though, be sure to duck. Shoes will almost certainly be thrown at televisions.Â
