I've never been a Madonna fan, but IMHO this year's halftime show was one of the best I've seen in more than a decade. It was extremely well choreographed, the lighting was nothing short of spectacular, and the only flaw I saw was Madonna loosing her balance and nearly falling from the grandstand set's top tier. What do you think sports fans?

Gary, I concur.
First rate 1/2 time show performance by Madonna.
She looked and sounded terrific.
She's proven that she's still got what it takes !

Top drawer stuff. Didn't Cirque du Soleil do the choreography, etc.? Agreed, Gary. Best half-time show in years.

Sorry guys I thought it was boring and over done , why have celo green and the crazy hair guys there in cameo not sure what that was Mondona sounded good but over all kinda ok and nothing more.

I respectfully disagree. She lip synced, she stumbled and her performance moves were labored. I think that the opulently over-produced show was used to cover the loss of her ability to be Madonna. " ... still got what it takes!" ... I can't agree.
Ciao,

It was just ok for me .....most of the crowd was getting food, bathroom long lines, or talking during half time.

I'll bet Lady Gaga got a good laugh....

I sure like her better than lady gag-gag.

Stayed up to watch, loved the choreography, liked the tunes, thought she looked and moved OK, couldn't tell if she was lip syncing or not. Problem to me is the singing sounded like the studio, so if that was live I'm impressed. Alternatively, if that was lip syncing then that looked perfect too so I'm impressed at a technical level if somewhat let down.

No one's got near Mr Springsteen's half time show. He's not called the Boss for nothing.

Hi I also stayed up to watch here from Yorkshire...certainly was worth it.
As for Madonna, she was definitely lipsyncing but it didn't matter...the spectacle was highly entertaining and professional.
The only regret to me was the outcome of the game!
I don't know anything about the game but love the name of the New England Patriots!

I dont see any excuse for lip syncing...if the lovely Kylie can sing live and put on a show (and her shows are something to behold!) I am sure Madonna is more than capable of doing it.
