I loved it. Shakira is just such a natural on stage. She just looks so comfortable and happy there. Every time she performs I smile. Jlo brought it to wow. I loved the lets get loud part so much. Overall both ladies killed it. I thought the set list was fine I just wish we heard a little more of the songs that were performed but obviously time constraints make that hard. Also important to remember these woman are 43 and 50 years old. They are just amazing. I don't really want to compare them further because we don't need that. And to the people who thought this was inappropriate, what the hell were you expecting? They are two Latino woman. Get your head out of your ass. What these ladies stand for and what they represented on that stage tonight is way more important then them showing some ass cheeks on stage. No one seemed to care when Adam Levine goes shirtless. Plus, pretty sure they were wearing skin-toned bodysuits, so they weren't even really showing said ass cheeks. They were all covered up.

I saw the half-time show with my school friends yesterday and I really enjoyed both performances, but I have some thoughts.
• Shakira's slot was more diverse than Jennifer's, although it fell through the transitions. • "Empire" could have been replaced by "Inevitable", even a song from Pies Descalzos, if Shakira wanted to show her pop/rock side. • I'm little pissed that Shakira only performed a brief part of "Ojos Así", despite she did the belly dance. • "La Tortura" was a missed opportunity. • "Waiting For Tonight" was incredible. The pole! I still dig that song to date. • I liked that there were some brief parts of the songs from Jennifer to be included during the transitions. • Bad Bunny and J Balvin's inclusions are strange to be honest if it's considered that Pitbull and Wyclef Jean could have shared the stage with Jennifer and Shakira, respectively, but I agree that the first two guys are more current than the latters, so the comittee felt more appropiate to include them instead.

My thoughts exactly! My favorite from Shakira's segment was Ojos Asi (although it was too short). From Jlo's perfomance "Waiting For Tonight" was just epic!

• "La Tortura" was a missed opportunity. So true! I was so ready for her dancing break "No te bajes, no te bajes..."

The transitions overall were rather rough a bit I'm still happy Shakira got Ojos Asi in and that JLO did Get Right
Those were my two main wishes

I watched it last night without sounds (while eating at a sushi place lmao) and just re-watched it on Youtube, hot damn, that was a show.
J. Lo's set was obviously more coherent. It was a smart arrangement to start from her Urban-leaning stuff, then transition to her dance hits.
You can tell J. Lo is a more suitable performer for a show like this, though musically, Shakira is the better artist (which shows on the iTunes numbers). I was overjoyed when she performed "Empire" - I loved that song and it should've been a thing.
Btw: Shakira is taking over iTunes Top 10! 2 - "Whenever, Wherever" 4 - "Hips Don't Lie" 6 - "Waka Waka"

Whenever Wherever is one of those that feels like a #1 on the Hot 100 but in reality it peaked at #6 which feels insulting af

Not to rain on anybody's parade, but doesn't it take about seventeen sales to get to the iTunes Top 10 in 2020?

I really enjoyed the whole thing. Shakira looks like she's always having a blast and relaxed having a good time with friends and JLo is putting on a damn show. Very contrasting styles but it worked here. The end with them both was fun. The logistics of performing live in a stadium on national television practically requires lip synching. Could you imagine if halfway through one of their mics cut out or they couldn't hear themselves in their feedback and sang for 10 minutes completely off key and or at the wrong tempo for the music? It's an insurance policy for the artist, the NFL, and the sponsors see Orange Bowl, 2005. All of the above happened. It was horrible and amazing, but mostly horrible for everyone.

I don't know if the massive sales decrease since the ubiquity of streaming services, on digital services like iTunes is as dramatic in the USA as it is in the UK where I've been working the last two and half years. Hence, my framing through an informal question
