Kanye West claimed in a deleted social media post that he has been excluded from the Super Bowl halftime show due to his criticism of George Bush, his feud with Taylor Swift, and his support for President Trump. The dispute with Swift began in 2009 when West interrupted her MTV VMA speech and continued with his song ‘Famous’ in 2016. Despite performing at a pre-Super Bowl concert in 2015, West has never headlined the halftime show, with reports suggesting Jay-Z may have influenced his absence. West’s recent controversial comments, including alleged support for Nazi ideology and antisemitic remarks, have sparked backlash and led to public apologies.
