I couldn't stop thinking about Kim Jong Un during Katy Perry's last song. I was just thinking "they hate us cause they aint us"

I only watched the halftime show. I turned it off when the female rapper came on screen. Can't stomach that crap.

I thought I had heard something about a youtube halftime show? Told the host to look it up and he found nothing...the Katy Perry show was fine (no one cared), but did I just make up the YT thing?


There was one. The guy from epic meal time hosted it.

Maybe separately but their styles clashed on stage like a neon tank top and argyle pants. Add in the fact that the RHCP weren't even playing and it sucked.

If by awesome you mean lip syncing and playing air guitar, then you're right! Their performance was simply not good and clashed style wise in song choice. I know mashups are the cool thing now, but it just didn't work.


Similarly, I thought this halftime show was underwhelming until Katy Perry STFU and Missy came out. Like, I heard that beat was though "No... it can't be!". I still remember when Missy and Timberland ruled the world. At least, Perry and Kravitz kind of meshed in their mashup, mostly because it was a Perry song alone.

Missy...I don't even know who that was but it was horrible.

They might as well have not even had Kravitz there. If I was him and it was that small of a role I would have not bothered.

Katy Perry put on a great show as far as the technical/visual part of it, but since she can't sing and whatever that Missy person did wasn't even singing, they might as well have just had a visual show with lasers and fireworks and crap.

I was hoping for an American Woman bit but since it's obvious Katy can't sing and needs studio help I guess that's why they didn't do it.

Katy did look mighty comfortable kneeling down in front of Lenny didn't she? Good for him.

Terrible show. Missy was one of the best aprts. Katy can't sing or dance. Was tedious to watch. Last years show was awesome.

Fans would get bored before the broadcaster had a chance to run all the commercials.

yea most likely because there are not a million strobe lights flashing and 10,000 dancers in retarded costumes dancing to some equally retarded song that has been over played so much that it kills cockroaches.

I don't agree that their styles clashed cuz they're both funky as fuck. And I don't really care that they air guitared, cuz it's not like john anthony mother fucking frusciante was there.


" Like, I heard that beat was though "No... it can't be!"


My exact feeling too!

and for the people who don't know who missy elliott is, LOL.

The only thing Bruno is good at is sucking cock.

That kid isn't my cup of tea but he's crazy talented. Pretty much a reincarnation of Michael Jackson without the crazy (yet). No need to be a jerk about it.

I'm not really a Bruno Mars fan but how can you say his halftime show sucked? That performance was effing incredible.

Along with my favorite comment: 'ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!'

My daughter likes katty perry but she said the half time show sucked.

For a half time show i thought it was pretty darn good.

The sound was kind of off for the first 10 minutes of her performance. They seemed to get her mic level right at the very end though.

I watched the first part of the game and out out and put in the Terminator which I hadn't watched in a couple years. I then went back into the game to see the last quarter. I don't think I could have made a better choice. Half time for me holds no interest.
