Country singer Gavin Adcock is standing firmly with Kid Rock and Turning Point USA as the conservative group rolls out its own “alternative” Super Bowl halftime show — offering fans a choice outside the NFL’s official entertainment.
When Fox News Digital asked about Turning Point USA hosting a competing halftime event featuring Kid Rock and other country performers, Adcock made his support clear.
“Yeah, I mean, I support whatever they want to do. I’m going to be at the game. I’m going to have to watch the other Super Bowl halftime. But I love Kid Rock, Brantley Gilbert, all those people. So, everybody’s going to have a good time wherever they’re at,” Adcock said.

The alternative show comes as backlash continues to swirl around the NFL’s halftime programming – Bad Bunny, who has been critical of both President Donald Trump and ICE, will be headlining the official halftime show.
Kid Rock has framed the Turning Point USA event as an option for people who “love America, love football, love good music, love Jesus.”

Adcock, who transitioned into music after an athletic career, said the collision of sports and entertainment during Super Bowl weekend feels natural.
“I think it’s awesome. I was an athlete at one point in my life until 2021. I fell right into music. So a lot of people in music came from athletic backgrounds. And that’s how they got their hard work and climbed,” he told Fox News Digital.
