JESSE WATTERS (HOST): The Super Bowl has announced the new halftime show, Bad Bunny. Are you a big Bad Bunny guy?

JIMMY FAILLA (GUEST): Not a fan, but here's my advice to Americans because a lot of conservatives are freaking out, okay? Don't be mad that we have a crossdresser who doesn't speak English doing the halftime show because if Kamala won, he would've been a cabinet member. You wouldn't have got 10 minutes. You would've got four years. And that's my advice to my conservatives that are flipping out. It's like if we can get through a president who didn't speak English for four years, we can get through a halftime show.

WATTERS: Alright, so you're going to be rocking out to Bad Bunny no matter what?

FAILLA: No, not rocking out. And to be clear, I think it's absurd because the Super Bowl is a monument to America. It's a monument to our excesses. They took football, something we all loved, and turned it into a pop culture, like kind of the epicenter of pop culture for the year. You get the commercials, you get the halftime show, you get the celebrity sightings. So, yes, in an ideal world, the celebrities would speak English, okay, and that's where it's a problem. The game is in San Francisco; they should have a San Francisco act.
