Monsterious 26,867 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 In a lot of ways, Lady Gaga has been the victim of a compressed career arc. Her first single went to No. 1 in 2009; within a year she was the biggest pop star in the world, within two years she was already struggling through her Difficult Second LP, and within four years her popularity was markedly on the wane. And so in 2016, when Gaga was announced as the halftime headliner for Super Bowl LI, it felt almost like a throwback choice, even coming in the midst of the promo campaign for her much-hyped fourth album Joanne -- particularly after that album was released to respectable sales but mixed reviews, and its singles stalled early and often on the charts. Truthfully, though, if there was a disappointment to be had with Gaga's performance, it wasn't with the show or the song selection -- which will likely go down as one of the best halftime sets this century, and rightly so -- but with the fact that she didn't attempt anything particularly outrageous. http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/super-bowl/7678078/super-bowl-2017-lady-gaga-halftime-show?utm_source=twitter&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuuri 21,636 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Although the opening was nice, she could have started with Just Dance on the roof, change Telephone to Perfect Illusion and fit in Applause somewhere in there. I just believe the show needed a little more Joanne promo and a little more flair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
