before we begin we publish new videos

more great content for this list we’re
looking at the best halftime shows
throughout Super Bowl history and
ranking them based on their
entertainment factors theatricality and
the performances legacy number 10 Bruno
Mars and the Red Hot Chili Peppers Super
Bowl xlviii damn Bruno Mars knows how to
put on a show
he rocked New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium
complete with a kick-ass drum solo on a
moving stage and some amazing dance
moves which almost rival Michael Jackson
he was a ball of energy exuding
fun-loving confidence and mad skills
[Music]
the only reason this show isn’t hire is
because of the random appearance of the
Red Hot Chili Peppers their music
clashed with Bruno’s and it was
extremely odd seeing Bruno’s classy R&B
styled band hopping around with
shirtless head-banging men regardless it
was energetic and the overall
performance was a fantastic example of
an entertaining halftime show
[Music]
number nine Lady Gaga Superbowl 51 you
see this right here this is why the
Super Bowl halftime show is so revered
Lady Gaga has always been a theatrical
performer and her dramatic personality
is on full display throughout her
mesmerizing performance at Super Bowl 51
Gaga’s show was grand entertainment
including her descending from the roof
and performing acrobatics
not to mention coloured drones forming
the shape of the American flag there was
also time for emotion as Gaga performed
million reasons complete with a touching
hello to our mom and dad
[Music]
critics immediately called it one of the
best halftime shows ever can we agree
that it certainly is a contender number
eight Aerosmith and NSYNC featuring
Britney Spears
Nelly and mary j blige Super Bowl 35
[Music]
well this was interesting for one thing
it seems as if the event planner simply
pulled the performers names out of a hat
because they certainly do not mix well
on paper luckily it worked out
surprisingly well in practice you are
arrow singer you are a super-duper
supergroup that’s about to rock and
hardcore it all began with a scripted
segment involving Ben Stiller Adam
Sandler and Chris Rock before in sync
ran to the stage and performed a
meticulously choreographed dance number
[Applause]
what followed was a hell of an odd
medley of NSYNC and Aerosmith songs
before everyone came together for
Aerosmith’s walk this way it was
obviously meant to pander to different
demographics but damn if it wasn’t
entertaining and energetic to the max
[Music]
number seven Madonna featuring LMFAO mi
a Nicki Minaj and Cee Lo Green Super
Bowl 46 while many people thought that
Madonna was past her prime and
irrelevant for the Super Bowl halftime
show
she certainly showed them all up
delivering one of the most spectacular
performances in Bowl history
[Music]
this show was pure theater it had Roman
soldiers Madonna riding in on a golden
throne a marching band a choir and mi a
flipping off the camera which landed her
in a lot of hot water however it wasn’t
just the spectacle that was on point
Madonna energetically performed some of
her most well known songs and proved to
everyone that she can still put on a
heck of a show
so
number six you to Superbowl 36 this game
was played only five months after 9/11
so Americans weren’t exactly in the mood
for a rousing cinematic affair luckily
you two took a more subtle and emotional
approach to their Super Bowl appearance
[Music]
the band performed only three songs and
the names of those lost in the terrorist
attacks were projected behind the band
during where the streets have no name
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
to end the show Bono revealed his
American flag lying jacket to deafening
cheers from the audience it was just
what America needed at the time and it’s
now rightly regarded as one of the most
iconic Superbowl halftime shows
[Applause]
number five Beyonce Super Bowl xlvii
well if you want the viewers and the
spectacle then there really is no going
wrong with Beyonce Queen Bee absolutely
lit up the Superdome with an energetic
and confident performance complete with
a kick-ass stage design and sparkler
shooting from her guitarists axe talk
about a show that’s pure fire but
perhaps the best moment came when Kelly
Rowland and Michelle Williams shot up
from the floor to join Beyonce for
bootylicious
Twitter naturally went bananas
this one has easily solidified its place
with the best of the Super Bowl halftime
shows when it comes to pure class and
energy there’s simply no beating the
Queen
[Music]
number four the Rolling Stones Super
Bowl 40 the stones were going into Super
Bowl xlviii stay whirlwind of
controversy many citizens of Detroit the
host city believe that the stones
weren’t the right group to accurately
portray their musical culture not to
mention the fact that the whole Janet
Jackson wardrobe Fiasco which occurred
two years earlier was still a sore spot
in general for any potential halftime
performer luckily the stones are always
a good pick for a dependable kick-ass
show
they played on a giant stage made to
look like their trademark lips and
tongue logo and rocked the house with
some of their most classic tunes
it wasn’t as flashy as Beyonce or
anything but there’s no going wrong with
a kick out the jams performance number
three Bruce Springsteen and the E Street
Band Super Bowl 43
springsteen and the Super Bowl seemingly
go together like beer and chicken
fingers
but Springsteen had continuously turned
down the offer to play the halftime show
however he finally accepted for Super
Bowl 43 and mister lemme tell ya it was
well worth the wait
springsteen immediately commanded the
stage by telling viewers to put the
chicken fingers down and turn the volume
up and he then proceeded to rock the
stadium for this entire short set the
boss like the stones prove that you
don’t necessarily need high budget
gimmicks or effects to be memorable all
you need is some timeless music a lot of
swagger and the confidence to rock in
front of hundreds of millions of people
number two Michael Jackson Super Bowl 27
The Jacksons have certainly claimed
their stake in Super Bowl history
although Janet’s share is probably not
what she originally had in mind Michael
on the other hand deserves all the
acclaim he’s garnered over the years for
his appropriately legendary performance
at Super Bowl 27
[Music]
[Applause]
Jacko was brought in to revitalize
waning Super Bowl ratings and he came
through in flashy glory erupting from
the stage which was followed by almost
two minutes of pure crowd pandemonium
and backed up by a choir of 3,500
children it was an enormous success
greatly influencing future Super Bowl
halftime shows the whole tradition
wouldn’t be what it is today if it
weren’t for Michael Jackson before we
rock you with our top pick here are some
honorable mentions
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
number one prints Super Bowl 41 versus
kept a boom yep
this diminutive purple God set the
musical standard for this biggest of
jock events life is full of surprises
Prince took to the massive stage which
was modeled after his logo to perform
many of his most beloved jams
there was fascinatingly little overt
spectacle in this show
it was just prince absolutely shredding
his guitar and commanding the stage like
no one else ever has or ever will and
rather poetically he ended the show with
a tear inducing rendition of Purple Rain
as rain cascaded around him and his
gloriously funky guitar hit rocked it
was moving and it is we’re confident to
say the best Super Bowl halftime show of
all time
[Music]
[Applause]
