‘Benito-Bowl’ - anyone staying up for the Super Bowl Halftime Show at 1AM?

[mumofoneAloneandwell]

I think I’ll stay up, despite having to be up at 6ish

I stayed up last year for Kendrick, that was a treat

plus I love the album, and Bad Bunny 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

It’s on Channel 5 this year, not itv or the bbc

Dermot O’Leary and Sam Quek are roaming the streets of San Francisco, lucky things

I'm staying up for the superbowl, I love NFL, even though my team hasn't been in the superbowl since the 90s.

I've heard a lot about Bad Bunny recently, seems like a good guy, I couldn't pick one of his songs out of a line up though 🤣 I'm sure it will be great anyways.

which team is yours? And which team do you think will win? 👀👀

me, I’ve no idea what’s going on but I’m just here nodding along 😂

bad bunny is amazing, quite likeable as well!

The Chargers. We probably aren't all that good, but we have spirit and that's the main thing 🤣

My money is on the patriots tonight. Every year I have to sit and explain all the rules to my dp or my kids who only watch it with me on superbowl night, it's not that difficult to pick up and follow along, none of them can get into it because they say it stops and starts too much, whereas I don't get the rules of football and they all watch that 🤣

I'm actually looking forward to seeing Bad Bunny perform, I love hearing new music.

Superbowl goes on after some nobody has murdered the anthem, TV gets muted at Half-time, unmuted at 2nd half kick-off.

Love NFL, just can't be bothered at all with all the extraneous garbage they cram around the actual football.

I think it’s time for the national anthem

it’s sad that we don’t get to view their adverts in the uk 😒

😂

do you reckon the World Cup will be done the same way?

i won’t like it at all if it is tbh

😂 I love that, I have spirit for lots of things myself - good at none though

it does seem confusing in comparison to football but it just takes connecting to a team maybe

Is Charlie Puth miming?

Where is everyone? Is there another thread running that I missed again? 😂

I'm watching to see what Bad Bunny is like.... Not sure what to make of it TBH!!

That was great and Ricky Martin bonus!

meh

i love him but I was kind of confused

I saw cardi b in amongst the dancers, he should’ve done his song with her!

Was lovely seeing Ricky Martin - and looking so well as well

I did too. Outside the house. If it wasn't her the dancer look just like her. I was expecting her to appear.

and Pedro Pascal , I loved that he’s there supporting him , they did one of the funniest SNL skits together.
It was phenomenal , it’s a celebration of his roots , lots of cultural references. And "Debí Tirar Más Fotos" was exactly what all those haters needed to see and hear , God Bless America , we are here to stay ,this is America. Beautiful message

I cried at the end. The beautiful reminder that AMERICA the continent is more than just MAGA. It feels so incredible, as someone who has loved Latin music since the 90s, that Ricky Martin who was not allowed to sing in Spanish in order to not alienate the mainstream can now support a singer/ rapper who writes lyrics exclusively in a very Puerto Rican centric way and is unapologetic. No one should be afraid of speaking their mother tongue and Benito shows that the world will love you for it.

I just watched it on YouTube (the half time show, not the football!) and loved it.
The end with him naming all the countries was emotional! So important that he got that platform while Hispanic people in the US and other immigrants are living in fear of ICE.

Can I ask why the hell alix Earle was there in amongst all these poc in what seemed like a real cultural show? Am I missing something ?!

Just watched it. Spectacular show!
