I hated it! My sister texted me about how fantastic it was and I was like ""huh?""

I found it hokey and juvenile and the lip syncing drove me to distraction. It was like a train wreck though and I couldn't look away. Someone somewhere posted about Katy having a beautiful voice. How could you tell? They can pretty much do anything with anyone's voice in a studio and all she was doing was moving her mouth to recorded lyrics that were altered.

I thought it was nice that it was family friendly and not trashy and I liked the fireworks at the end but not her ""shooting across the sky like a firework."" That was just dumb.

Love Lenny Kravitz but what was the point? He was on for what? 45 seconds?

ITA!

I think they should have let Lenny be the main attraction. What a waste of his extreme talent...didn't showcase him AT ALL.

That's exactly right

{#emotions_dlg.thumbup1}{#emotions_dlg.thumbup}ITA!

I classify KP's music as bubblegum. Hence it sounds juvenile. Her high, loud and shrill voice also goes through my head. I would have loved Lenny Kravitz to be the main attraction.

I thought this was the WORST SB 1/2 time EVER. It felt very young & like an Olympic Game opening or closing ceremony performance.

Who thought that this would appeal to a SB audience? It was more catered to the tween girls out there....who were probably shopping at the mall.

AWFUL

Even the TODAY show cast mentioned it was like an opening ceremony at the Olympics.

This was my first thought as soon as she came out. The technology used throughout was that of the past couple of Olympic ceremonies.

I liked the big lion.

It was a tiger.

Every news report I read last night and this morning say it was a Lion. I couldn't tell what it was. It doesn't really matter I guess.

Would have preferred the entire half-time show done by Lenny. Katy's just OK.

Im not a fan of hers. I did watch the performance online (because my daughter said mom you have to see it..lol). To me it looked like she was lip singing the entire first half? Then it looked live so I couldn't tell. I do like Lenny Kravitz. And I will say Katys props were cool.

To me the best performances in a halftime show were Paul McCartney, Michael Jackson, the Who, Madonna, Bruno Mars, Aerosmith, others besides Katy.

I wish theyd get Bon Jovi OR Maroon 5!

PS) I never watch football but I used to watch the halftimes shows live, (except this year, I watched online as I stated).

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make~ The Beatles

I can't believe they kept mentioning Lenny Kravitz and he was there like 30 seconds maybe? Would have enjoyed much more of him.

I think the show was OK, it was entertaining. I liked when she sang the fireworks song and was flying around.

I thought the lion was hokey. You could see the guys in black moving the legs.
