A growing wave of excitement has taken over social media as fans launch petitions urging the NFL to replace Bad Bunny with country music icon George Strait for the Super Bowl LX halftime show. The movement, fueled by devoted country music enthusiasts, gained a surprising boost when superstar Carrie Underwood made a subtle but impactful comment in support — a few words that sent the fanbase into a frenzy.
When asked about the fan-driven campaign, Carrie Underwood smiled and replied with enthusiasm, “If George Strait takes the Super Bowl stage, count me in.” That simple statement instantly sparked trending hashtags like #GeorgeStraitSuperBowl and #CarrieAndGeorge, as fans began dreaming of a classic country halftime celebration.
George Strait, often hailed as “The King of Country,” boasts a career spanning over four decades, with timeless hits like “Amarillo by Morning” and “Check Yes or No.” For many, his potential headlining performance represents a heartfelt homage to the roots of American music on one of the world’s grandest stages.
Underwood’s endorsement adds significant momentum. Known for her powerful voice and commanding presence, she has previously made major appearances at sporting events, including singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl and lending her voice to NBC’s Sunday Night Football theme. Her support fuels hopes of a memorable collaboration, envisioning George Strait and Carrie Underwood sharing the halftime spotlight for an electrifying country-infused show.
As petitions continue to gather signatures, fans are urging the NFL to honor the heritage of American music with a lineup that celebrates its traditional sounds. Carrie Underwood later took to social media, expressing her admiration: “It’d be an honor to sing alongside George. He’s a legend — and who wouldn’t want to be part of that?”
With public enthusiasm mounting and a country music powerhouse ready to step up, the decision now rests with the NFL — and millions of fans will be watching closely. If George Strait headlines Super Bowl LX, it promises to be a historic moment for country music on the world’s biggest stage.
