    Also it’s Your job as parents to protect your wild ass kids from what you want them to see! Shakira is huge in every country because she is so talented! Racist red necks in these comments would have no issue if the person performing was a white american! Someone down in the comments calling j lo fat and ugly, but saying Adele would have been better lol when she’s literally obese. Before you all have a heart attack, surprise surprise, Shakira is of white race! These people are so mad that latinas stole the show in Miami which is perfect. Shakira is the most talented artist in the world! She speaks seven different languages, plays four instruments, perfected multiple genres of music (rock, pop, ballads, reggaetón, Spanish pop, even Arabic music! Name one other artist who does all of that. It’s seriously sick that as soon as a woman shows any sex appeal that’s all she is to you racist losers. Get a life and learn to recognize real talent!

    Whoever thinks this is close to soft core porn give me a break ???? absolutely ridiculous claim! Whoever has a problem with their performance is racist, period, and is mad that two Latina’s were chosen to perform at the biggest show of 2020 absolutely killed it! Shakira is so incredibly talented and brought in every element of her heritage so flawlessly, honestly the only issue I saw with this performance was that Shakira should have done it solo. She is such a queen and went VIRAL! Way to represent baraanquilla and show the world our beautiful folkloric cultural dances and music! ❤️❤️

    I never expected the NFL,Fox and Pepsi to promote denigrating acts on live tv. The show was 100% unacceptable and totally repulsive. Two women desperate to get attention gave a show with a horrific setting and full of vulgarity. They can't sing nor dance well, they gave the most disgusting show of their lives.They should not give concerts nor sell albums nor be on tv anymore. I will never buy their music nor support their immoral shows. Don't buy their music nor concert tickets anymore. They should retire for good,they are losing popularity anyway.

    Highly inappropriate. Glad their being sued. Should have been forced on people. The camera man should be sued too bc he kept zooming in on the crotch. That should be sexual harassment. Not for family entertainment

  • Dan - 4 years ago

    Rather see the commercials than decrepit ass p.

  • Axel - 4 years ago

    Dirty sluts. Old ass cougars should be ashamed.

  • Todd - 4 years ago

    This is why men are players because all these nasty women chase like desperate hoes. Highly inappropriate and why can’t men just watch the damn game. This is trash

  • Max - 4 years ago

    Innappropriate and boring

  • Les - 4 years ago

    Guess they know they suck and had to put on a porn show to cover their lack of talent. It was still evident though.

  • Ben - 4 years ago

    Jlo looks out of shape and Shakira looks like a man. Neither are attractive females nor can they sing. How bout someone like Adele. That broad actually has a voice and talent. These other 2 are trash. Hope they set some rules for next year

  • Mark - 4 years ago

    I like football. Have never cared for the Super Bowl halftime show. It’s always old ass dried up has beens. Why don’t they ever have a popular band from the last couple of years. It’s terrible every year. Jlo get in shape before you dress that way.

  • Summer - 4 years ago

    How can anyone think this is ok? So y’all like walk around in public grabbing yourself? I have so many questions on how anyone can think this was appropriate.

  • Gina Kay - 4 years ago

    25% of voters are skanks

  • Judy Vondy - 4 years ago

    I think its inappropriate... Prince was ranked #1 for super bowl performance and he was awesome!!!! This one was just disgraceful!!! And yes cheerleaders wear cute outfits but they dont use stripper poles to perform nor grab their crotches and get rid of the racist shit or the President !!!! It was horrible !!!! Katy Perry didnt act like that so ya its wrong at least she has taste for her audiences...

  • Marla m - 4 years ago

    So disrespectful to women. How can they possibly think that’s okay for Family viewing??? Let’s go back to marching bands. What about that college band that makes spectacular designs all over the field. ? That’s talent.

  • Lisa g - 4 years ago

    It was highly innaprorpriate as jlo rubbed her vagina.

  • Hailey c - 4 years ago

    This was extremely inappropriate. I didn’t think the costumes were that bad. Shakira was actually ok. But JLos costume was nasty and you could see all her jiggly junk and she kept bending over to show her twatt to the camera. Just gross.

  • Weston - 4 years ago

    Ted said it best was waiting on a cockroach to crawl out her vajayjay ????

  • Carl - 4 years ago

    Yeah and the other 69% are smart enough to know that shit belongs behind closed doors

  • Joey - 4 years ago

    You know what this poll shows. 28% are in touch with their inner hoe. It’s all good but no the show was not good and I was disappointed.

  • Sarah - 4 years ago

    I am surprised to see so many males didn’t like it. That says a lot about how raunchy it was.

  • Billy - 4 years ago

    They looked like hoes. Not impressed. I would rather see something sports related as halftime entertainment.

  • Carly Rae - 4 years ago

    Ted! That’s the funniest shit I’ve read all day. He said it was so nasty a roach gonna crawl out her vajayjay. I’m dead

  • Brandy - 4 years ago

    Omg Ted ???? now I forgot what I was finna say. Well I guess that sums it up.

  • Bo - 4 years ago

    I can’t believe they aired that on tv. Definitely should have had a warning. Not all men are driven by sexual inuendos. Some of us know class when we see it and I sure didn’t see it.

  • Leslie - 4 years ago

    I was extremely disgusted by this. We were at a watch party and one of the neighbors little boys was making all kinds of comments and ogling the tv. I think he’s only 8 or so. These kids are so impressionable and he now thinks this is ok to treat women like a sex object. Take this away from fox.

  • Sam - 4 years ago

    Damn Ted I was gonna say if you have to knock the cobwebs off you might be too old to be dressed like that. But he killed it with the cockroach comment.

  • Ted - 4 years ago

    Complete filth. I was waiting on a cockroach to crawl out the vajayjay

  • Jen - 4 years ago

    I wish I looked like them but that was extremely vulgar for family TV.

  • Anthony Layne - 4 years ago

    That set women back 100 years. I would beat my daughters ass if she did that. Come on they don’t even look that good and you have young girls watching. WAy to set the example of what not to do.

  • Kenneth - 4 years ago

    My wife looks like JLo and she best not act like that. Money don’t buy class.

  • Miles - 4 years ago

    Man I was a fan of J LO but that was total trash. Fox done messed up airing that. TRASHY

  • Brendan - 4 years ago

    That was nasty as hell. For one them ladies are too old and crusty to be doing all that. The cheerleaders are young they can dress like that. I ain’t seen no 50 year old cheerleaders on tv. Get that mess outta here.

  • Brendan - 4 years ago

  • Larry - 4 years ago

    These women are old enough to know better. Shakira not so bad by jlo was nasty and she needs to lose some weight before she breaks something dancing like that.

  • Bestmom - 4 years ago

    Shakira wasn’t bad at all, she was just perfect and classy but Jlo was just like a cheap stripper... if the show was just Shakira everything would be fine

  • Raquel - 4 years ago

    First I’m a Latino and I’m embarrassed. Second NFL cheerleaders would be kicked off the team if they behaved in such a vulgar manner. The cheerleaders are held to a very high moral standard and they have to be very aware of how they present themselves in public. This show was all about JLo promoting her new movie. If you want to pay to see that trash you can but please keep it off of daytime TV.

  • Kandy - 4 years ago

    I can’t believe all the idiots comparing this to the nfl cheerleaders. I have never ever seen a cheerleader present themself in such a sexual manner. Shoe me where any cheerleader has grabbed their crotch. Or shown their vagina to the cameras. If you want to make it about race then Latinos should be embarrassed to have this representation. Total sexual exploitation of women. I have a teenage daughter and sure don’t want her thinking this is ok. Talk about a slut show!

  • Gina Stephens - 4 years ago

    I thought the half-time show was tasteless, shameless, and beneath the standards of television broadcasting. Do they still have standards? I can't believe some people are trying to say it's a cultural thing and the rest of us are racist or behind the times. I'm sorry, crotch grabbing, tongue flicking, and stripper poles are not part of the Latin culture! The way the show was filmed was objectifying those women. It was not a show of female empowerment. It was a show of female degradation. Jlo and Shakira should be ashamed of themselves. The NFL needs to get performers that can keep the shows entertaining and classy. Classy is not boring. Classy is a standard, one in which we all should strive.

  • Lin S - 4 years ago

    I believe that at this time when there is so much in news about sexual attacks and abuse of women It was in very bad taste. Why J LO would want to flaunt that in front of her own daughter too is interesting. All ages watch the Super Bowl and expect to see entertainment which that was not and certainly seemed more demeaning to us women. Maybe younger men and some middle age men enjoyed it but wasn't appropriate for the very young and a lot of society that expected better

  • Stephanie - 4 years ago

    I'm happy to see that both women are being scolded by the public for that overtly sexual performance because at first I thought it was just me that was more than a little shocked by it. I don't understand how in this day and age two talented and popular performers like this could be so mutually obtuse about the message that type of performance would convey. Shame on everybody involved in putting together such a grand parade of electric sex. The fact that no one suggested toning down the butt shaking and crotch grabbing or making the ladies wear clothes says a lot about the type of people in charge of this crap.

  • terri - 4 years ago

    All I could think was how confused men must feel. Look at all this, but no, no--don't touch. #MeToo. Mixed messages.

  • Caddy - 4 years ago

    Well if j lo wanted to show her daughter up close how to devalue woman she did a great job. Grab your crotch, hang off a pole and shake your butt that way people like you. Good luck kid, moms a great empowering role model... someone call child protective services!!

  • Julie - 4 years ago

    I couldn't believe the cringe worthy halftime show. How did anyone think this was entertainment? I'm so glad I don't have young kids! That was the last Superbowl for me!!!!

  • Anonymous - 4 years ago

    Please people stop being so hypocrite their worst things that kids can see on the TV that are very inappropriate but only because they're Latino dancing you guys make a big fuss but what about the things that in regular TV sometimes I have to turn it off for my granddaughter

  • Julie - 4 years ago

    What a trash h

  • Brandy - 4 years ago

    It's not about race. But, most people saying that it's being seen as racist, are Latino. Go figure. I understand about having pride for your culture, and for those apart of it, but if you can't see what that was, I'm not sure you'll not understand this next part either. You have to be 21 to get into a strip club, and they look and dance just like JLo did. Her movie is rated R, 17 with parental guidance. Now, why is any of that performance okay? Oh. Wait. It's not. That was pushed right down all of America's throat, and if any body who has a healthy self esteem and self love watched that, it's obvious that was total trash. I'm not against any of that, stripping, dancing on another man in a sexually provocative way when you're married, going to a strip club, dancing sexually on a stripper pole and the likes, but that is my choice to do so, not someone else's to take away from me. Grow the fuck up. Just because that has been the closest thing that you can get to fulfill your Jlo sexual fantasy, doesn't mean we all should have to watch it. I don't care if her record sales are low, and that's the kind of stunt you have to pull to revive your failing music career, I don't want to see it.

  • Lindsey - 4 years ago

    Kids copy exactly what they see. We had to turn it off halfway through because we were watching it with our impressionable 6 year old daughter. I don’t want her to think she’s supposed to flash her underwear under her skirts to cameras and to slide up and down stripper poles half naked. Both women are absolutely amazing dancers and have the talent to pull off an incredible family friendly show but missed the opportunity. The level of sexuality was unnecessary for daytime TV and the NFL absolutely should have posted a warning for young viewers.

  • Laura - 4 years ago

    I am not offended but very disappointed. Superbowl halftime show was not the stage for that performance in my opinion.
    Two talented beautiful women missed their opportunity to showcase their talent instead of turning it into a zumba/ stripper/pole dancing event.

  • Jerry Smithson - 4 years ago

    Scantily clad girls; crotch shots, pole dancing? Yeah, sure is the image I want my teenage daughters to see. Totally disgusting show. There was a super bowl ad about empowering women, and then the NFL puts on this soft porn show? Totally inappropriate!! Period!!!

  • Donna Hecker - 4 years ago

    Worst halftime show ever. NOT ENTERTAINMENT!
    Last halftime show I will watch.

    I don’t speak Spanish. Don’t care to listen to songs in Spanish. Don’t care to watch pole dancing or have my children watch it either.

    Better to show a short film & then fireworks if this is what u choose to present. Cartoons would have even be better. Just a trashy, trashy, show. Both performers really degraded themselves.

    I’m done w half time. Let’s watch a good HS or College band.

    ????????

  • Brandy Bentley - 4 years ago

    This show was crass and deplorable. As Graham stated, it’s evident of the moral decay in our society. Shame on anyone and everyone involved in this tasteless skit. And the children in cages, the Puerto Rican flags... they made a mockery of America and most are too ignorant to see it. Everyone should submit complaints to the FCC, Fox Sports, Pepsi, and NFL for allowing this trash on prime time TV.

  • Jose Soto - 4 years ago

    I didn’t think there was anything wrong with the performance . Look how cheerleaders dress . But bc they are latinas u have to put them down . Oh pls get a life

  • katie - 4 years ago

    While the costumes and the show itself were very good - the crotch shots were totally unecessary. Dang I felt like a Gynecologist. I did however like the salute to the flag - nice patriotic touch.
    Lady GaGa did it best a few years back. Flash, Dance, Talent and CLASS!

  • Kathie - 4 years ago

    What a disgrace. I am so saddened by the way people talk about and exploit sex. And you wonder why rape, sexual abuse, and other sexual crimes are so high now days. This was supposed to be a good time with family. The Superbowl was not set up for personal political views either. Enjoyed a good clean game, but ruined by half time show.

  • Kathy Schlosser - 4 years ago

    I was actually accused of being a racist after expressing my objection to this over sexualized performance. Just said that i thought that those moves should stay in the clubs or bedrooms. But because it was Latina dancers, who apparently had a statementto make ... my opinion was not well received...Truthfully, I saw no color and any message was lost to me, all I saw were some pretty explicit sexual gyrations. Thought it was a setback for all women...I blame Pepsi, as they paid two talented performers quite well to put on a sensual show for the men. They did not care about offending anyone...just their ratings.

  • NoonyJ - 4 years ago

    Heck when Janet Jackson had Her Wardrobe Malfunction, No one Spoke in Her Defense, so it is fitting that the Public Audience for the Most Part does think that JLo and Shakira's Performances were just as Inappropriate, even though I don't think Janet's Bare Breast Exposure was Intentional. And Yes, as Performers, the Gyrating, Twerking, Sexy Costumes and Overall Sensual Overtones is what You get when you See these 2 Ladies perform their Separate Shows. So basically, it is Not so much WHAT they did as it is WHERE they did it. And then bringing the Cute Little Girl out to Sing. Was that their way of saying; Yes, We Cater to the Children who are watching too? Go Figure! I'm beginning to Wonder if the SuperBowl Halftime Show has become a Public Forum for Entertainers to Create Controversy, because it sure does get People talking doesn't it? And taking Opposing Sides, just like the Football Game Itself.

  • Kathy - 4 years ago

    Porn dancing, crotch grabbing, mimicking butt sex moves, etc., does not convey female empowerment! I love high energy dancing, but our brains, hearts and words show real female empowerment, not porn dancing. Also, what message did this continue to send to all young men? That females should be expected to dance like this to "entertain" them?

    I had recently read the Rutherford institute article on child rape, aka child sex trafficking and how Superbowl week is one of the worst for these young sex slaves in our club with an average age of 13. Unfortunately the halftime show shows exactly why there is such an appetite for child porn.

  • Sam Brown - 4 years ago

    .... since the two “bunnies” went all in for a trashy display, thought they might perform an orgasmic lap dance on that creepy rapper, for their finally!
    Guttersville!

  • Michele Rugo - 4 years ago

    I'm having a difficult time aligning the "Me, Too" movement with the soft porn of contemporary female pop artists.

  • Ellen Neufeld - 4 years ago

    We made a decision not to watch the halftime show but unfortunately turned the TV back on too soon and did catch a glimpse of 2 barely clad butts 3 feet from the camera -- shaking in my face!! Really disgusting and not at all family friendly -- not good for children to see, not good for dads and not good for moms either. We as women need to show children that we have some self respect and that includes dressing and acting in a way that gives us dignity and wholeness.

  • Jenny - 4 years ago

    Halftime show was horrifying. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing! Raunchy,trashy,stripper pole,the raunchy moves! I’m still in shock. I can’t believe that was allowed for the Super Bowl show. It gets worst every year. Less clothing and raunchier moves. I’m disgusted for sure! Not family friendly either ! And for any cheerleaders, they are no better ! They should just cheer naked cuz they are 90 percent there anyways.

  • Denise Avila - 4 years ago

    Get the fuck out here!! Sure there sexy and I think the problem is because they are considered Hispanic/ latinas. What about when Janet Jackson nipple came out! Did y’all forget?? Or when Madonna and Britney Spears and lady Gaga wear cones on there breast and touch them self’s or better yet kiss each other in stage. If you are going to talk your conservative ass off then include white women acting trashy too!! Stop the fucking nonsense! No one cares obviously.. don’t lie watching don’t include your kids these games always have half naked women have your kids watch something else and stop blaming other people for your lack of fun or having some personality!! It’s always been sexually active with performances.. your just pa prude and need to get out more.. but please don’t change your values!! Just don’t expect others to follow yours! Point blank period.. stay inside your house and don’t watch the super bowl or any tv shows. Because guess what?? There all having soft porn or gay people kissing just move on people!! Get a life

  • River Jay - 4 years ago

    In my opinion, as a younger woman of 18 years. This show was just a bunch of eye candy for those who are into it, and in no way was “appropriate” for young children. If woman truly want to be respected, why do we put things on a mantel that would otherwise be criticized? Where is the class, or is it simply “in” to be that forward? Was it all to escalate the performance? Nonetheless, it’s just my opinion that we don’t indulge children with pole dancing and crotch shots on a Sunday night.

  • Rick birdsell - 4 years ago

    I don’t care that this thing took place in Miami. We have young people watching this sporting event all around the world. We didn’t need the strip club.

  • Alicia - 4 years ago

    The booty shaking was fine ,the pole dancing and knee slide crotch shot was trashy and not entertaining. It’s not even the clothes they wore I was fine with that but come on J lo’s lips winked down below as she knee slide to the camera...

  • Amy Bloom - 4 years ago

    They are entertainers! They sing and dance. This is nothing new for them. Shakira and JLo’s videos are the same way. Shakira is know for belly dancing. It’s not like they went out on a limb and did anything unpredictable! All pop stars have always danced intensely- female and male (Michael Jackson, Justin Timberlake, Brittany, Christina, Madonna, Taylor Swift even.) The list goes on and on. Why is everyone giving these two accomplished women such a hard time!?! Because they are powerful women?!? This is so tiring and super hateful. Another woman noted, what about cheerleaders?!? They wear tiny outfits and dance to entertain men (and have for years!). Everyone is fine with that! Why?

  • Rachel - 4 years ago

    Half time strip show. Last half time show I will watch . Totally inappropriate for family/child viewing. Not the role models I want for my daughters or the image of womanhood I want for my sons. Only good part of it is that I have an example to use for teaching how people will exploit themselves and use sex to sell. No respect.

  • Sue - 4 years ago

    J Lo is showing her age which is normal for someone 50 yrs old. Her dancing was so stiff compared to others. She couldn't keep up with Shakira at all.

  • Dre - 4 years ago

    It's a shame that so many people are ready to judge and apply their own sense of morality to others. Culturally, this is 110% Miami and I bet if you polled them, the results would be reversed. Miami is a thriving US metropolis, it's full of people just like you who live good, upstanding lives that include dancing and celebrating the body. You reveal far more about yourselves than you intend.

  • Denise - 4 years ago

    This was filth this is a family event and you wonder what is going on with our world will look at the video

  • Dave Beach - 4 years ago

    The halftime show was very INAPPROPRIATE. what were they thinking! I am calling last nights Super Bowl halftime show REPULSIVE.

  • Linda Beach - 4 years ago

    My husband and I thought it was in bad taste. Super Bowl XLIX Halftime show was wonderful. Katy Perry made it enjoyable for all ages, shame on you J.Lo.
