So today was the long awaited 46th Annual Superbowl 2012 with the Giants facing the Patriots on the green field....However, there can be no Superbowl without a half time show.... After the grueling 2011 NFL lockout finally drew to a close bringing results to both players and owners, it is a breath of fresh air for the legendary Madonna to come and put on a phenomenal show. It was so carefully orchestrated and coordinated. Set design was spectacular, vocal quality was on point...Its safe to say that Madonna truly brought back the life of what a Half Time Show is all about. Black Eyed Peas performed well but didn't sing well last year at the 2011 Superbowl, as well as Rolling Stones, and the infamous wardrobe malfunction between Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake. I truly believe that this half time show was by far the most anticipated show over all the past years performances and is gonna be one of the most watched. Even though I thoroughly enjoyed Madonna's medley performances of classic hits like "Vogue" and "Like a Prayer"....
Interestingly enough I found many on my Facebook page and twitter pages to have mixed feelings concerning the half time show....Many still feel that it was no different from the other shows....Its as if they're still waiting for a new re invention of the Half Time show... I say we could use a face lift. But at the same time was just got out a major lockout, the owners and players are were of all the negotiations, the players were growing anxious to get back on the field and playing, providing financial stability to their homes once again. But the most hit hard was the fans...Fans look forward to their football games whether it be watching it in the convenience of your own home or going to the actual game....The lockout itself made everyone restless. The future of American Football was in jeopardy of being shut down. This was the most anticipated game of the year....
Despite all the critics, football is here to stay, and entertainment performances will continue to be a trendsetters during the half time shows... Lord knows how much this cost to make it all happen after going through such a vigorous lockout the year before.
