I thought it was really good. Sure, she's totally wrong for actual football fans and that new song is a piece of crap, but it was still very entertaining with good choices for special guests.
Your dragging has become more vicious sisCould probably do with an injection of CULTURE in their lives
you know who doesn't lip synch? lady gaga.

Did people really like that abomination of a performance last night? Bad lip singing and overblown choreography.
I'm not a fan of this particular kind of music, but why wouldn't the NFL just get Lady Gaga to do the show. She's current, has a lot of hit songs, and would actually sing and put on a good performance. I know why they picked Madonna though, I think all the half time performers since the Justin/Janet fiasco have been 50-60+ years old. Stones, McCartney, The Who, Tommy Petty, Springsteen. I think the NFL is out of touch, most of the bands and acts they have been selecting in the last decade haven't been relevant for 20-30 years.
Madonna still could get it tho.

Super Bowl 2012: Madonna Does A Higher Rating Than The Game
by Matt Verderame
Madonna is apparently still quite popular. The past sensation out-rated the Super Bowl, as her halftime performance generated a 48.3 rating compared to a 47.8 for the game according to reports from John Ourand.
Despite two very large market teams being involved in the affair, Super Bowl couldn't break its own ratings record which was set just last year by Green Bay and Pittsburgh.
Part of that is undoubtedly the very nice weather that the East has seen this year. With a normally bitter time of year upon us, people are much more likely to stay inside and look forward to the game.
It's truly amazing that Madonna is still as popular as she is. Many people were annoyed that the NFL was bringing in another older superstar to perform the halftime show, but clearly they made the right decision.
This Super Bowl did outdraw the previous match-up between these two teams as the 2007 game did a 43.1 rating.
[edit]whoa that was a lot bigger than i thought
^^^^^I think it makes sense that they chose Madonna over Gaga for the halftime show.
People gotta remember, the Superbowl appeals to more than just the pop tweens of today. It's the most watched television event in the US for all age groups. Gaga just doesn't have that appeal yet. Not a lot of young artists do. Older artists, on the other hand, can appeal to the younger set due to their legacy while also appealing to the older crowd who grew up with them. I love when they have older acts perform. Even if I'm not checking for them,I appreciate it as a big ol' slice of Americana. Just makes you feel good.
When you think about it, the Super Bowl Halftime Show is without a doubt the largest stage an artist can perform on in the US. A packed stadium of thousands, the entire country watching. That stage really should be treated more like the tremendous honor that it is (which is why I was pissed as hell that the BEP the got the honor last year).
Madonna deserved to perform. Gaga doesn't...yet.
Honestly I was expecting Express Yourself to be in the performance somehwhere. Show still slayed of course, but just the thought of it
The halftime show was awful. They need to get rid of anybody who decides that they're going to lip sync their performances. It's so stupid and in stark contrast to the event itself. You don't have guys out there pretending to play football.
But most performers lip sync at the Super Bowl. Even seminal performances like Whitney's Star Spangled Banner or Michael Jackson's 1993 halftime performance were lipped. It's pretty par for the course.
She was trending 2nd tho
But its just screaming.None of the rock acts fake it.
nope, #1 the whole night
None of the rock acts fake it.

I know I can't be the only gaffer in love with the Got 2B Real youtube series, right? It's absolutely brilliant and, I think, thread worthy.
