Follow on from the last thread.

Are we done yet

I feel like I’m in Nando’s when this song comes on

I’ve not got the tv on so it’s funny reading these comments wondering what’s happening 😂

Ooh my Zumba song! Yess Shakira. I can entertain the kids with my box steps and fireballs!

What is this half time bullshit going on just now?

Imagine playing in the biggest match of your life and fucking Justin Bieber is singing “World Cup hallelujah”

Love Shakira. This half time show should just be her performing all her World Cup songs.

My husband just walked in to Justin Bieber and uttered Oh Jeez!! Says it all!
I was sure I read the BBC wasn't going to be showing it.

I didn’t think we could watch this ? Why did I think this ?

Would 100% rather be digging into some peri peri than watching this shite!

And it just got worse..

Super bowl of shite

Omg it's Kermit and Miss Piggy.

We are the world out iof favour?

Just when you think it can't get any worse you get a children's choir and miss piggies!!!

I feel like I'm tripping.

No we've now got the 21st century - we are the world!

Miss Piggy? Anyone else feel like they've entered a parallel universe? Like they're high on drugs or something?

Poor kids are tone deaf

Oh god, not kids and Chris Martin

Has the second half been cancelled?

Meanwhile, Trump is ordering up tonight's bombing raids.

I thought they broke up.

He shouldn't have done that 😭😭

Love that song though, and love my biebs

I feel about him the way people did about Princess di

Are you me 😂

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
