Real Housewives of New York alum Jill Zarin is continuing to receive backlash online after she went on a rant about the Super Bowl halftime show featuring Bad Bunny.
She called it the “worst” halftime show she’d ever seen and said that the whole thing seemed like a political statement since it was in Spanish and “there were literally no white people in the entire thing.”
Well, her initial video received a wave of criticism from online users, even while other Real Housewives stars like Taylor Armstrong shared similar sentiments.
Since then, several housewives have directly blasted Jill for her comments.

She went on to say that she disagrees with “absolutely everything she said,” adding that she doesn’t know how someone could walk away from watching that performance, especially knowing the effect it likely had on people who are frightened right now.

Zarin Fabrics
While not a housewife, it’s worth noting that Zarin Fabrics publicly distanced themselves from Jill, a former co-owner of the New York store with her late husband Bobby Zarin.
The company shared an Instagram post featuring her photo with a giant ‘X’ on it.
“We want to be absolutely clear that Jill Zarin has not had ownership of or been associated with Zarin Fabrics for several years. Our company operates independently, and any public statements attributed to her are made in a personal capacity and do not reflect our values, beliefs, or operations,” they wrote in the caption.
