It was just ok and I am Latino. He tried to sing way too many songs and did not have room to breathe, also he is such a bad singer.

It might not be until tomorrow that they release an official link, or maybe after the game ends

I agree. I also found it boring, but his music is not my cup of tea. Loved the message of it though with what is going on, but it just felt a bit messy with all the sublocations, not really a stage. And the ending I expected a big party with DTMF but suddely he was walking out already. Also, I hate it when the superbowl is during daytime, it makes everything look cheaper than it should. Same happened with Coldplay
 

 

I usually agree about daytime shows, but liked it during the day for this setup though. If it was dark, then it would have looked like a spooky maze

It was a good show, but I hate to admit, I thought Gaga's part kind of didn't work. Nothing wrong with her performance, but it was like... why is she there? And the instrumental was changed from the original, but her vocal didn't really change to go with it, and that kind of took me out of it. Always nice to see her, but yeah. 

OH DAMN *ANOTHER* GAGA COMMERCIAL JUST NOW. For Pokemon, of all things.

Yeah, Gaga’s energy and enthusiasm saved it, but I agree that she didn’t modify the vocal delivery enough to fit the arrangement (probably a bit under rehearsed because of how tight her schedule is). As far as the rationale behind her being there, I think it serves a couple purposes: on a cultural level, there are a lot of people that like Gaga (or even just like DWAS) who may not be into Bad Bunny, so the inclusion of a song that basically everyone knows is really smart, tbh.
 

On a political level, Gaga’s inclusion could represent a form of allyship between a white artist and a Latino artist during a time of political division. And, on a personal level, I think it’s just heartwarming for him because he’s such a massive fan and heartwarming to see a newer artist give Gaga some flowers as well.

When I think off halftime I think theatrics. It fell short.

PS if your definition of a great performance is “theatrics” and stunts: go to a Disney show or something lol 

This performance was brilliant and had many layers to it, which made it an artistic highlight of the halftime show history

Halftime shows could mean anything. The message was beautiful. As a latin I felt very represented. And in this time that USA is being a DI** WITH MY PEOPLE, IT WAS THE BEST ACT TO DO! So don't be a bit** 😚
