she is apologizing for 'stoking anxiety and division', she should apologize for that
That played a big part in the Twitter backlash over the Prince thing which was entirely unnecessary.

It's all up to the teams. People clearly did tune in for Justin either way since the halftime had better ratings than the game. For those curious: 2012: Madonna 114.0 million / Game 111.3 million (+2.426%; +2.7 million) 2013: Beyoncé 104.0 million / Game 108.4 million (-4.059%; -4.4 million) 2014: Bruno 115.3 million / Game 111.5 million (+3.408%; +3.8 million) 2015: Katy 118.5 million / Game 114.4 million (+3.584%; +4.1 million) 2016: Coldplay 115.5 million / Game 111.9 million (+3.003%; +3.6 million) 2017: Gaga 117.5 million / Game 111.3 million (+5.571%; +6.2 million) 2018: Justin 106.6 million / Game 103.4 million (+3.095%; +3.2 million) ...that isn't that remarkable as it happens quite often. By percentage of increase relative to the game, Justin marginally brought in more people than Coldplay. By sheer numbers, he brought in less than anyone else in the past five years (including Coldplay, which... I mean...). Of course it could have been worse. Beyoncé actually saw a slight decrease between her performance and the game in 2013. I'd like to go back further, but I can't find any article detailing the Black Eyed Peas's halftime show performance ratings. Just that it was "up from the previous year." Whoop-dee-do. I know this thread is about Justin but those stats are interesting. Is there a reason why Beyonce lost viewers when she's usually considered a much bigger star than Bruno/Coldplay? Love seeing those numbers for Gaga

The only thing I can think of is maybe they account for the entire half-time and not just the musical performance portion… perhaps the ratings for the half-time show that year were affected by the electrical outage that occurred after her performance and people were tuning out before the game resumed?

^^^^ Oh his career will be fine. He's a good looking white man, all he has to do is lay low during his "blacklash" era and he'll be primed for some type of comeback. Nothing will happen to him long term. “Good looking” is a stretch.

It also doesn't help that it was being sold for $13.99 at Target.

Wendell said this on her show today: "Sorry Justin that your career is in the toilet. Sorry Justin that nobody liked your last album. Sorry Justin that you're crying like a baby. Sorry Justin that you have so much to say about this performance but you had nothing to say when you ripped Janet's boob off."

I know there was a blackout sometime during that Super Bowl. Was it before Bey or after? I can't remember. It was the actual stadium that had a blackout. Maybe that is the reason?

The blackout happened after her performance, and for a time her performance was blamed for the blackout happening, but that was proven to be wrong.

Pre-Trump: I love Justin. He gets a pass to the BBQ. Post-Trump: All white men are evil, unless you're Elon Musk. We love his crazy ass on Twitter.
Even Michael Rapaport felt the wrath of Black Twitter when he came for Janet.

Lol, I think artists plan their release week around the SB; not vice versa. It’s more surprising that artists haven’t done this as often before — have their album ready to roll out in time for their halftime show. But we’ve seen other varieties of promo opportunities, like tour announcements (Bey, Gaga). JT’s sales projections actually *falling* post-SB (and the fact that he wasn’t able to get anything to #1 on iTunes over a Carrie Underwood hype song) is extremely alarming.

What, Katy's halftime was in 2015? Time flies. Ironically it's the halftime I remember the most. Iconic.

Even Michael Rapaport felt the wrath of Black Twitter when he came for Janet. " Anyway, even though I might have no idea who Michael Rapaport is, this guy who looks like the love child of Pikachu and the Pillsbury Doughboy was right when he said, “Motherfucka’s wanna make nothing something.”
Of course, to him, Janet Jackson is nothing. The fact that Jackson’s IMDb page makes his look like an Arby’s application is inconsequential to Rapaport. That one of the biggest stars in the history of pop music was blackballed for her Super Bowl halftime show while her white co-participant got the chance to redeem himself with a mediocre performance dressing the musical stylings of Jackson’s brother in whiteface and blond hair might not mean much to the former Celtics star. (Oh, that’s Brian Scalabrine? My bad.)
Black Twitter is being unfair. After all, if we condemned every white boy for sidling up to black culture and then tossing it aside when it was convenient to do so, there’d be no Michael Rapaport.
That’s just science."

Awww JT is very talented, he just made a medicore album this time. It happens.
But then again he has gotten away with so much trifling behavior in the past he was overdue for a backlash. He'll live.

Justin Timberlake and the Fall of the Mediocre Man by J.K. Rowling
Meh, I'm sure it's not as good as the original seven. I'll wait for the movie.
