I thought it seemed amateurish. Very poor stage production.

I did like the people on the field with their lights and dance and moves.. but the singing and those on the stage were sorely lacking.. and that poor girl, with her football pads themed outfit.. I can't imagine people thought that was anything to look at or listen too.. I think half time shows have been going downhill for years. Beginning with Janet Jackson and her malfunctioning outfit! There are wonderful entertainers and groups out there.. Why have someone we can't even understand? good grief, fire whoever did that show. It was awful!

Judie

oh dear.. I must have really hated that half time show.. but even more than the half time show was the horrible singing of our National Anthem. I don't care how many awards someone has, they ought to have the respect to sing the song correctly.. she was so "into" her own voice and what she was doing with it to impress the world that she forgot where she was.. for goodness sake, sing the song and honor the nation. Do your vocalizations in the shower. I didn't not appreciate that disgraceful attempt at all.

I love that song, even though I'm a grandma. I don't know how well she sang it, but the melody brought back a good song. That's all I liked about their song selection.

I remember when rock and roll was introduced. Bill Haley and the Comets never made it long on our radio when my father was within earshot. The music kind of outraged him. Elvis...we had to go downstairs to my grandmother's apartment to play Heartbreak Hotel.....over and over and over, spinning around that record player. And we did this when my father was at work so no chance at all he could hear it!!!
I'm 67 years old soon and I understand all the comings and goings in the music industry. I remember when Kiss made the scene, the Doors did LA Woman like no other (I was potty training my youngest while spinning LA Woman on the Wildcat), and then the Beattles Abbey Road while I cleaned, and cleaned. Neil Diamond Hot August Night was continually spun between my neighbor and friend, Susan and me on our house cleaning, homemaking days. Some guy from Enlgand singing the beautiful "Your Song" over and over on our new stereo.
The music was great. Santana, The Diamonds, Chubby Checker, Fats Domino, Bobby Rydell, Blue Oyster Cult, The Stones, Styx, Lover Boy, and on and on.
So, I really did try to give Black-Eyed Peas a break. But my 67 years have finally caught up with me and there's that stubborn block there to accept what's different.
By the way, I'd listen to the groups I mentioned above, and the songs, any time without criticism. Nostalgia.

I could not believe it. I just heard a lot of screaming and shouting.

I was hoping for music.

On the other side my tweener loved it.

IMHO each year's show gets worse and worse. And the National Anthem was disgracefully performed. I wish they would quit trying to rewrite the music and perform it as it is written. God Bless America!

I love Black Eyed Peas!

The Halftime show from all I hear was: "El Primo Crapola De La Noche"!

Explosive blessings, abundance and inspiration to you all!

I agree. The chick couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. I don't particularly like rap to begin with. Loved the light show, tho.
