She lip sync'ed the whole thing, so no. At least Fergie and the Black Eyed Peas didnt fake it.
mjm6783Feb 6, 2012
except that they were terrible. I hate that lip syncing is necessary, but trying to dance and sing at the same time is a bitch, and if it makes the music terrible it's not worth it.
jerroldsFeb 6, 2012
No one said she had to dance. You don't see Adele or Taylor Swift dancing around - it can still be a show if she were to, you know - be a singer.
All the extravagances of her show was pretty I suppose, but could not distract me from her lip syncing.
mjm6783Feb 6, 2012
You clearly don't understand what made Madonna popular in the first place. I'm not saying I like it, but she's from the 80's-90's school of pop stars.
I would have preferred to see Florence and the Machine.
P.S. I would like to reiterate that the Black eyed Peas are terrible.
lucas123Feb 6, 2012
Maybe not the "greatest show on earth" -- that's Ringling Bros' territory -- but at 53, she looked pretty great.
temlakosFeb 6, 2012
No. She put on a tired old version of one of her music videos, and she lip-synched the whole thing. I see now that I did not miss a thing.
martoqFeb 6, 2012
I am just surprised she didn't break a hip.
theonewhoknowsFeb 6, 2012
No she didn't. Ringling Brothers and barnum and Bailey did.
filemanFeb 6, 2012
Do people know what music is any more?
chiefucfFeb 6, 2012
WTF was with her trying to look like Ming the Merciless from the 1980s "Flash Gordon"?
encognitoFeb 7, 2012
Oh snap, that is some funny s**t right there!
sephickFeb 6, 2012
Compared to last year, yes.
The greatest show on earth? Far from.
jasin39Feb 6, 2012
This is not news. this should be buried so far down. I feel ashamed even commenting on it.
jqp123Feb 6, 2012
The whole thing made me nostalgic ... and kinda sad. She was obviously trying to re-capture something whose time has come and gone. It was like watching Mike Tyson well past his prime and remembering how he used to be. Some memories are best left alone.
NickCobbFeb 6, 2012
She moved like a 50-year-old, but otherwise looked great.
rudegarFeb 6, 2012
nice going for a 53 year old! :P

Super Bowl 2012: Did Madonna put on the greatest show on earth? - Yea, if you're gay.
rudegarFeb 6, 2012
so if I'm gay I think it was the greatest show on earth
or if I turn gay everybody will think it was the most fab show on earth ?
JS76Feb 6, 2012
Her songs were always bad and still are. The new song, where she tries to act cool, young and hip even though she's 53, was awful. The stupid dancing and awful lip synching did not help.
Does the NFL not know its own fans? Why did they think the overwhelmingly male fan base would want to see Madonna? The halftime show was disliked by everyone who watched at the party I went to, with the exception of MIA flipping off the camera.
concusionFeb 6, 2012
you think any male viewers are not going to watch the superbowl based on its half time show? If anything the half time show is designed at those that normally don't watch football to try and lure them in for something
JS76Feb 8, 2012
Fair point, but past halftime shows don't really fit what you're saying - Black Eyed Peas, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty. The NFL tries to put on a great show for everyone, and Madonna doesn't have that universal appeal, particularly among the core fan base.
The NFL's goal is generally to get people to enjoy the halftime show and say positive things about it, which is why they turned to MTV to manage them. That's how we ended up with Aerosmith, Britney Spears and Nsync on the same stage. That ended with the wardrobe malfunction, which is when they turned to "safer" shows - less controversial stars with more universal appeal. Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Prince, Springsteen - names that would draw big audiences without risking controversy. Madonna fits that bill - she's a big name and she won't do anything too crazy (at this point in her career).

The effeminate male dancers in the first set were a comical sight for a football game.
birdbottlesFeb 6, 2012
You just described the football players
partrowFeb 6, 2012
We all know why people watched it. Would they have tuned in to watch it if it was a standalone show later that evening?
It was nothing but a filler for a captive audience waiting for more gladiator football. Instead they had women and gay men running around in costumes faking singing. That is entertaining? According to some comments above, I guess it is . . .
ServerGeekFeb 6, 2012
I had no desire to see Madonna's half-time show. I decided to take a shower during the half-time show, so that I didn't have to this morning before work.... Sounds like I didn't miss a thing.
Closed AccountFeb 6, 2012
uh no. once again they fail....
reaper527Feb 6, 2012
greatest show on earth? definitely not. that being said, it surpassed my (admittedly very low) expectations and was definitely better than last year's halftime show.
number23Feb 6, 2012
Putting on the best half time show is a VERY low hurtle, but I greatly enjoyed it.
LavaLandBlogFeb 6, 2012
I have no idea. I was asleep :)
mogwuyFeb 6, 2012
Not really, and did anyone else noticed the hair stuck in her coat zipper during the last song? Pretty hilarious...
TheQueenofOKFeb 6, 2012
My favorite part was when she fell down off the bleachers.
tabills50Feb 6, 2012
This show was horrible. I think hiring the Playboy Bunnies would have been a much better idea.
brooks007Feb 6, 2012
I thought it was good. Definitely the best half time show we have had in years.
stevanoskiFeb 6, 2012
A much better half time than I've seen in a long time but why does the NFL ALWASYS use has-beens?
pc25Feb 6, 2012
she has a new album coming out. This was a plug for it. She performed the single off of the album.
hopesteroniFeb 6, 2012
Did Madonna put on the greatest show on earth?
Hell no.
phillymozartFeb 6, 2012
Whoever thought Madonna did a great job must have been drunk by halftime.She looked old and didn't even perform her best tunes. The NFL needs to book artists with CURRENT hits to keep up interest in their half-time show.
leogodin217Feb 6, 2012
I thought she started off poor, but really picked it up midway through with an energetic 80s style dance. She did look like she was lip syncing through the whole thing. All in all, it was good.
partrowFeb 6, 2012
Yes, she did start off poor, in Bay City, MI.
leogodin217Feb 6, 2012
oops. meant poorly

She was channeling Lady GaGa
malicexcxFeb 6, 2012
Every single person that participated in the half time show should be shot.
fadderlyFeb 6, 2012
she did alright considering how old she is. she should leave the new music to the kids, though. just the hits, madonna. just the hits...
srosmadeFeb 6, 2012
Elle est superbe cette gonzesse pour son age
kaiserarnyFeb 6, 2012
Triste commentaire. Ouvre tes yeux et tu verras que de la chirurgie plastique et du maquillage.
bostic30Feb 6, 2012
Good show but not the greatest show ever.
dagreenmanFeb 6, 2012
the first 2 sets sucked, but that finale with Cee-lo was very good.
