I personally thought the twirling of her pony tail (over and over and over) at Lenny was dumb and was it just me but it looked like a lot of lip syncing was going on especially Missy Elliot.

And being a professional dancing shark is just as fun as it seems.

Like really, really fun.

Thank you for being a shark friend, Scott.

I love that she gave Missy a little time to shine, when she came on stage I instantly hopped to my feet and let out a huge "Yassssss!!" Missy never gets the credit she deserves and it sucks.

As for Katy....the visuals were great. That's all I got.

I LOVED it when Missy came on, as a matter of fact, was secretly hoping that she would throw Katy off the stage and just 'werk it herself!!! :roflmfao:

I agree! I have never pegged myself a KP fan, but I do not listen to much Top 40 anyway, so I was indifferent. Seeing her perform I am really at a loss for what people like about her! She is enthusiastic, but has little prescence. She can't sing or move naturally, so what are we paying for here?! :laugh:

She has a great attitude and seems like a kind woman, but the performance was weak as heck.

LOVED Missy obv, that goes without saying.
 
I thought the singing sharks and beach balls were cute. :D There is no such thing as being over-the-top in a Super Bowl halftime show. Sophistication would be out of place there.

Agree. I guessed she would either come out on lion or carriage with dark horse.
Show was very girlie IMO.

It wouldn't be Jeremy Scott w/o orange in the color scheme.
 
I enjoyed her show, I especially LOVED Missy!


IkR? It was awesome! I love some of KP'S songs but I adore Missy. And both ladies killed it.

^It's because they were freakin' awesome!
Lol yes they were.
I liked that it was family-friendly. I'm not a huge KP fan, but she entertained like crazy and I applaud that.
Aww yea she is "clean" entertainment. I can let my adorable neices and nephews watch her (ages 2-8) and not worry.
 
Missy was the best part for me. Her music never fails to get me dancing. Love her.
As for Katy, I don't like her music, all I liked was the lighting effects of the performance. The lip-synching was terrible and painfully obvious and she can't dance. It certainly wasn't the best SB half time show...
