Reflections on the Halftime Show
While Lamar’s performance was fiery and filled with controversy, many felt the overall presentation of the halftime show fell flat. Critics, including attendees from various backgrounds, voiced disappointment, indicating that the Super Bowl has seen better performances in the past. The show, often a stage for grand displays of talent and artistry, was labeled "an absolute dud" by some, who highlighted the lack of energy and engagement compared to previous years with artists like Beyoncé and Usher.
