Wow, just plain horrible.
Lip Synching ? Can we say Lip Synching!
Pre recorded vocals ? Yes
Pre recorded music ? Yes
Dancing that was well off beat? Yes.
These guys looked like they didn't spend one minute rehearsing at all. BTW when you lip synche, try to make it look like you are actually singing into the microphone please. LOL WTF?

I disagreed with you whole heartedly last year, but this year I think you are spot on! Even in the context of what it was (Madonna) it sucked. Blatant lip-syncing, dance moves that appeared to be in slow motion (clearly 50 is the cut off age for participants of that sort of stage show), choreography miscues and fuck ups and stoic performances. Black-Eyed Peas were looking pretty good after that were they not?  |

They are clueless. What do you think? |

If Roger Waters got out there and did a few numbers from The Wall I would love it and proclaim it to the be the best ever. Snakes will say how it was the shittiest ever. Art is subjective. Madonna has been around for a very long time she must be doing something right. |

How could anyone possibly say it was good, when she did the things that Jesse and I listed? I mean cmon man, you can't be serious Pete! |

I'll go watch it and get back to ya. |

I don't know I thought it was OK. Nothing great not too bad though. There some prerecorded vocals and music but not much more than the last Motley Crue concert I was at and it wasn't all lip synched. There was enough live vocals. Dancing wasn't awful. Madonna didn't move that much. I don't know who's idea it was but those boots with the massive heels aren't conducive to a lot of movement. The only mistake I noticed was when she was trying to mount those bleacher thingys. LMFAO was an interesting touch having about the biggest hit of 2012 so far. Nikki Minaj is huge not just with the hip hop crowd and was fine. M.I.A. added a little edge and I thought Cee lo was actually pretty cool. Like Spacel0rd I kinda liked 'Like A Prayer'. So overall I'd give it a 6. If I was more of a Madonna fan probably much higher.
I thought it was better than The Black Eyed Peas.

Well I'm with bluecheer on this one, I thought it was probably the worst halftime show I have ever seen, I really had a hard time sitting through it. Then again I'm not a Madonna fan.

Bluecheer, I agree with you. 100% crap-o-la.

I did like "Like a Prayer," tho. That actually WAS pretty good, but by then the damage had been done. |

Only Madonna can be so blunt!" Well I'm not going to waste any time defending Madonna. I don't care enough one way or another about her but I could understand why especially fans would like it. It was however maybe due to the venue lacking any real energy that Madonna is known for. |
