Donald Trump detractor and country-rock singer Brandi Carlile is one of three performers the NFL has named for its Super Bowl’s pre-game show on Feb. 8.
On Monday, Carlile announced on Instagram Stories that she would be singing “America the Beautiful” before the game. Other performers joining her before the game kicks off include Coco Jones and Charlie Puth—but Carlile will be the most vocal anti-MAGA celebrity to take the stage.
The news comes on the heels of backlash to the organization’s selection of Puerto Rican reggaetón star Bad Bunny for the big game’s halftime show. MAGA proponents have raged over the pick because of the singer’s ethnicity and Spanish-language music, with the least informed critics insinuating the American-born star is in the country illegally.
Bad Bunny also riled the right when he declared he wouldn’t perform his global tour in the U.S. to protect his fans from Trump’s ICE raids. The NFL has not wavered in its decision, and choosing Carlile to sing before the game could be seen as another act of resistance.
